Read this today.. very bad news for gamers. It was supposed to be the return of adventure games. :frown:

This offical press release from Lucasarts website is <A HREF="http://www.lucasarts.com/press/releases/81.html" target="_new">here</A>.

Maybe the adventure game industry needs someone with a vision so we dont have all these canceled games, Warcraft Adventures, Full Throttle 2, whats next the upcoming Leisure Suit Larry game that was just announced?

I find games getting more and more boring, it'd be nice to see something different again.
Back in the day something like full throttle was the norm now it'd be a drastic change compared to what everyones used to.
Its sad as this is the game that couldve changed the industry once again if done right.

Awww, man. I was actually going to pre-order it, but I guess that throws that idea out the window. Any idea on why it was cancelled? It looked good through the screen shots. Why get so far into a game only to cancel it? Hmmm...

For people who like peace and quiet - a phoneless cord.
 
Another Curse of Monkey Island would be thrilling to my ears.
