Anyway, I'm kinda excited, but I'll wait for the post-E3 coverage.

If I can venture a guess, I bet they have a new Star Wars action/adventure in the works. : Nope, definitely not any high hopes here.

I'm leaning in that direction also, an action/adventure or hybrid involving Star Wars or Indiana Jones. Unlike you though, this could be a very good thing indeed. Can't wait to hear the details.

Won't be an adventure though.

Actually, yeah, it's dead. 8-)

I'll be surprised if it's really an adventure game. But I'm already surprised that they told you anything at all, since JA isn't one of the "big" game sites.

So uhm, dare I ask which game it was they thought JA should find very interesting? Can't say I discovered anything interesting in their line-up...

Same here.
They all looked rubbish even the Indiana Jones game looked Baaah!!
And come on "Thrillville" it's like they never played Theme Park.

Go watch it, but have a box of tissues nearby. I mean...I hoped that the word "hottie" would never be associated with a LucasArts game, other than Elaine Marley.

I doubt they even remember who Guybrush is...

I did play all the way through it but I certainly wouldn't call it an adventure game and I never bought another one of there games.

That is considering that they have not been bought up by Microsoft and have Microsoft kill the games division! And have Microsoft make the last 3 Star Wars movies and finally have Luke Skywalker turn to the darkside of the force after having to deal with Microsoft's Operating System's software! :-/
I used to swear by www.mapblast.com
Not anymore!
Microsoft bought it up...................and killed it!
It is no longer supported, but instead it now goes to Microsofts crappy betta MSN Windows Live Local maps.
