StingingVelvet: Lucasarts stopped re-releasing their catalog on Steam. I would hazard a guess they didn't find the profit margins worth the time and effort. Which is a bummer.
They might also rather capitalize on remakes like the Monkey Island games.
wodmarach: I wouldn't be suprised if they they found the remakes were big enough sellers if they were planning to release SE's rather than straight versions in the future since GL seems to like killing my childhood...
I think the CEO of LucasArts who was responsible for doing the special editions of Monkey Island 1 & 2 and wanted to LucasArts to return to its roots was ... let go awhile ago. I doubt we'll be seeing much interest from LucasArts in doing special edition versions of any more of its classic catalog.
Hopefully one day though they'll see the light and come to GOG. I think GOG did say they were close to getting, if not signing on the dotted line, two more of the remaining big 5 to release here. So with luck someone is coming in the next year.
Thunderstone: I would rather play the original though, because there is a certain charm to the old school graphics.
Darling_Jimmy: You can. It's included. That is my favourite thing about the remake.

That CEO was also really PC friendly. It was a bummer to see him go. On the other score, I would bet a lot of money the other two close to signing were 2K and Square/Eidos. I doubt Microsoft or Lucasarts will ever make it here.
You could release your old adventure games on GOG and stand to make some money out it and make a lot of fans (the reason you exist), who are willing to pay for it very happy. On the other hand you could continue to be stingy, greedy, hard-arse corporates in suits and millions of Internet users will just continue downloading illegal copies of your games for FREE as what is currently happening.
cogadh: Or use the wishlist, that is what it's there for anyway.
Please, the wishlist is nothing more than a toy to amuse. Just look at how many votes Grim Fandango has and is it here yet?
jpinsa: snip
spindown: I'm pretty sure George Lucas doesn't read the GOG forums. You could try sending them a letter:
LucasArts P.O. Box 29908 San Francisco, CA 94129-0908 USA
I probably could, but was just having a bit of fun with my post. If GOG management can't secure the contract, I'm pretty sure our letters will achieve little.
gameon: "Jaybroni": This has been asked before. I think the general answer LA gave is that because GOG.com doesn't incorporate any type of anti-piracy system into the files they sell, they were not considered as a viable outlet for downloadable games. If gog in the future incorporates some type of copy protection system, then LA may consider distributing through them.
You would think that now that the big guys like EA and SquareEnix have joined the DRM-free revolution, LA would also see the light and realise that people will actually buy more GOGs if they are DRM-free rather than via Steam or other DD.
Still, the post you linked to is two years old, things have changed quite a bit in that time and perhaps LA will reconsider. Hell, I would had never imagined EA on GOG.com, so anything is possible in my books.

I have come across this thread before as the LucasArts debacle is of interest to me. Point is, they are worried about piracy, yet ALL their games are available for download on numerous websites. If they were really so concerned, why are they not targeting these sites to remove the content. The entire thing is just fishy

That's not the point. The wishlist was created so people would stop posting stuff like this and to give GOG some real world numbers to show to publishers when they try to work out deals. All you are doing is necroposting useless old threads.

Can anybody verify this address? What I would be more than willing to participate in is if all the GOGGERS who want to see LA here could commit (perhaps on a thread) to write a letter to this address in a sort of mass action petition. We would have to verify the address though.

Jaybroni doesn't work for LucasArts. He/she is just a moderator on their forums.
