I thought this was going to be about classics like Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders, The Secret of Monkey Island, LOOM, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.

How could you not have Loom and the Monkey Island series in that list? :o I loved most of their old games. Oh, and X-Wing vs Tie Fighter!

How could you people mention Lucasart adventure games without the one that created the SCUMM interface: Maniac Mansion. That game was fantastic. The characters can die, too.

^^ Nice I played that one too.

Majority of LA adventure games are great! Just not sure if the same formula would work anymore though.

I think I still might have that on CD. The trick is how to get it to run properly since such an old game. [/computer noob]

I wish they made a new, awesome, version of X-wing / Tie Fighter. But it would be cool if they let you actually take off and land on planets and also sit through hyperspace.. etc etc.

Fuck you, Jedi Knight II...that's already well into Lucasarts' history.

As people mentioned here, the days of Lucasarts adventure games was the true golden age.

You can tell who the old school PC gamers in here are. :lol

I mean, who can tell me which game this is:

"It's full of...air..."

That was probably the first time a fucking video game :troll: me.

Full Throttle FTW!

Full Throttle is at the top of the list for Lucasart classics. Fantastic story. Great characters. Superb voice acting. Hilarious humor. It had it all. My favorite adventure is Day of the Tentacle.
