LucasArts needs to be changed to

" Crappy Star-Wars Games INT"

They can every single decent game, and for what? More half-arsed Star-Wars titles.

Well, since the Sam and Max games were pushed from Lucasarts to Telltale, and Fallout was dropped from Interplay to Bethesda, then Monkey Island 5 will have to be made by Valve.

How involved with the last Monkey Island was Tim Schafer?

I heard that Vivendi and DoubleFine were working on a new game, not sure if it' s a new IP or not (I can check the site; Schafer treats the update page like his own blog).

For all you know, in order to make a more guranteed commercial success (after Psychonauts), he could be heading the new Monkey Island project...

...Personall, I thought the last Monkey Island was one of the weakest of the series...maybe it was the new 3D, but it felt...easier?
