Old?

From the official LucasArts twitter.

Amazing news coming Monday! Super excited! You have no idea how tough it is not to start yelling about it! But it's secret! Until Monday!

Okay, we will do hints. It is awesome news for our old school fans. (anything more direct might get me in trouble)

Monday, early, actually. I suppose if the president of the company messages me to leak it I would. Til then, it is teasing. Sorry guys.

I hope I don't disappoint. I know this is something I was asking for since before I worked at LucasArts.

I did say nothing to do with new IP people! Keep guessing though. I might have to retweet the guy who figures it out...

So to sum up:

- Announcement coming early Monday.
- Based on an existing LucasArts IP.
- Should please old school LucasArts fans.

Speculate away, GAF!

a third Maniac Mansion game please.

Teknopathetic · Jul 5, 2009

I'm guessing it'll be a LucasArts superpack like the iD superpack.

JoshuaJSlone · Jul 5, 2009

When a company's been around a quarter century and worked with so many IPs, it's kind of hard to narrow down.

Jon · Jul 5, 2009

I hope it has something to do with your avatar!

SNES Star Wars games remake for the PSN/Live?

Variable · Jul 5, 2009

All old school Lucas Arts games on Steam or GOG?

DevelopmentArrested · Jul 5, 2009

these 'teaser' tweets never end well

Enk · Jul 5, 2009

Monkey Island IV!

Ok seriously, a Maniac Masion and Full Throttle sequel are long overdue.

migulic · Jul 5, 2009

Grim Fandango on XBLA/PSN/Steam?

CrunchinJelly · Jul 5, 2009

Jedi Power Battles 2, please.

mattiewheels · Jul 5, 2009

but i don't like lucasarts anymore. and new monkey island games already got announced.

sorry for the pessimism, but i don't trust that company with the old adventure games at all.

Cafeman · Jul 5, 2009

... Rescue on Fractalus?

Variable · Jul 5, 2009

Oh wait, maybe it's a Tie Fighter or X-Wing remake for consoles?

gofreak · Jul 5, 2009

New X-Wing pls.

B_Rik_Schitthaus · Jul 5, 2009

Anything non-star wars will make me happy/

Can't imagine it being Full Throttle considering the last two titles in the series were both canned.

Day of the Tentacle HD Remake?

You'd think after the endless bitching on internet messageboards that it would have gotten into their thick skulls. Pity at this point I've no interest in giving LucasArts another dime.

Glad that some new people might get to enjoy their games.

Do you have any idea how much that would cost and how little money that would generate?

Any attempt at recreating a new X-wing/Tie Fighter for ANY of the consoles would end in shambles in comparison to the originals. A new Rogue Squadron, however, would work fine.

DMczaf · Jul 5, 2009

LucasArts coming to Steam!

clashfan · Jul 5, 2009

Fate of Atlantis 3D?

Sadist · Jul 5, 2009

Old point and click adventures to Xbox Live/PSN/WiiWare/Virtual Console

No Tim, no sale.

That kind of goes for any of the wet-dream sequels, though.

Would you like a party Popper instead?

True that.

I want Manny because I love and miss Manny, but I don't want him to return a changed man.

Mrbob · Jul 5, 2009

LucasArts Superpack would be amazing! Gimme! I lent my Grim Fandango disc to a friend years ago, he moved off and I never got it back. I want to play it again!

The list will continue to grow!

Oneself · Jul 5, 2009

A new game based around Maniac Mansion, co-op online and offline. PS360

Release date of Monkey Island: SE

Xater · Jul 5, 2009

This better be adventure or X-Wing/Tie Fighter related or I don't give a fuck.

I bet it is that. Remember, Twitter is the #1 source for bullshit megatons.

JEDI KNIGHT

Sapiens · Jul 5, 2009

Oldschool point and click adventures available on WiiWare/DS.

No remakes. Just ports.

GDGF · Jul 5, 2009

Maybe they've redone X -Wing vs Tie Fighter with next gen graphics or something to that effect.

civilstrife · Jul 5, 2009

I put my money on Scumm games for Iphone

Mamesj · Jul 5, 2009

old school fans are now known to Lucas as "people who saw Episode 1 in their tween years"

sorry guys

test_account · Jul 5, 2009

Cool news, thanks for posting this!

I am wondering what news it is.

That would be amazing, especially if they made it with the same 2d graphics style that Day of the Tentacle has

nubbe · Jul 5, 2009

Monkey Island 5

It will be a theme park simulator

Johann · Jul 5, 2009

We do I have the feeling we are all going to be simultaneously excited and disappointed..

British Monsoon · Jul 5, 2009

Loom in 2d HD on PSN & XBLA please.

Vinterbird · Jul 5, 2009

Megapack coming to Steam or iPhone. We're not going to get anymore remake announcement before the Secret remake sells well.

ultron87 · Jul 5, 2009

New X-wing/Tie Fighter. Just imagine how awesome it would look!

Xater · Jul 5, 2009

Not only that but it would also fill the space-sim void.

Sinatar · Jul 5, 2009

I would die of a joy attack if it was a new X-Wing/Tie Fighter game but life isn't that good. I suspect it'll be some rerelease of classic games or somesuch.

harSon · Jul 5, 2009

Maybe they're going to reprint existing games that have been out of print for years?
