I really hope this is true... As much as I love Star Wars...the games have become pretty 'blah' as of late. Battlefield II seems to be a good game, but I know they can do better. I really wish they would reprise some of their old adventure games. I know they lost the rights to Sam and Max, but who wouldn't want sequels to the following games...?

Day of the Tentacle
Dig
Grim Fandango
Monkey Island

Maybe if they go back to that and they are a success we'll see Sierra (or whoever owns Sierra now...can't remember if they are even around anymore...) unveil sequels to...

Space Quest
Police Quest
King's Quest
Gabriel Knight

How I long for the day for a new Space Quest game... Roger Wilco is your everyday janitor/hero! Whats not to love!
