    Farewell Lucas Arts :(

    May the force be with you and may all your monkeys be three-headed.

    Great pity. They were behind some of my best-loved classics, like Monkey Island and Grim Fandango. Those were the days, great original ideas, and no online-authorisation DRM malarky.

    I think I just might "repurpose" an old machine, and go through some of my favourites, from Myst to Leisure Suit Larry and Thief x to Halflife .... and not forgetting, of course, Grim and MIx. That should keep me out of trouble for a while.

    They had their fair share of failures and successes, but I wont forgive them for what they did with Battlefront 3 and Free Radical.
