Life Lessons I Learned from Playing LucasArts Games as a Child.

[@shaik1982]

Grim Fandango, you will forever be in my heart.

LucasArts thanks for being part of my childhood

[@rodolforosario7059]

Straight up. I feel the same way. I grew up playing their games and I was addicted. I still have the Monkey Island soundtracks and still listen to them cuz the music was awesome. Brings back sooo many good memories.

[@Xx6IRxX]

The lego games, Episode 1 racer, Episode 3, Masters of Teräs Käsi, Force Unleashed (1 &2).........these were some pretty badass games. happy to have been able to play them and have some fun in my childhood.

Actually, Lucasarts took a pretty strong standpoint in 2004 that they weren't interested in making adventure games when they suddenly canceled Sam & Max: Freelance Police despite that the project was coming along beautifully. Many of the developers we associate to the LucasArts classics formed their own company - Telltale Games. IIRC, when Steve Purcell wanted to continue Sam & Max under Telltale, LucasArts didn't even let him use assets from the game they canceled.

sooo many classic gaming memories. the lose of lucasarts is a great loss..

[@RickLemonAZ]

So many games. So many adventures. They were the best. It saddens me that I may never play another adventure on Monkey Island.

[@MoonEaterSkoll]

Edutainment I love it :D great job editing.

[@LittleMissEvel]

It's weird hearing them with sound. Or at least while they're talking :P. Our computer was either too shit, the sound just decided it wouldn't work or we didn't see the need for speakers in them days. Man i'm feeling old before my prime.

[@LathanCroweTV]

I had a Mac Performa & these were the only games at my college that let a guy on a Mac play games. I loved Maniac Mansion, Sam & Max & Full Throttle. What saddens me about the whole Lucasarts thing is George set them all up. He smiled, took $4 billion, made that deal not caring that others who worked for him will be ok after he left, many in their 50's. And for that, I don't respect him anymore nor do I consider George Lucas to be anyone of value anymore - at least in my heart.

Last sentence from the pirate: we'd probably die from a "what"?

[@HannibalBarca85]

"Aye, and if we pirates didn't carry hand lotion aboard all our ships we'd probably die from the chafing."

[@kokotienko5405]

Grim Fandango needs a remake.

[@Deathshuck]

Sure it's sad that LucasArts had to go, but when you really think about it, they haven't really done anything worthwhile in a decade or so. They were a relic from an age long gone.

[@drradon]

Strange how true that has become these days.

[@LiquidusTalon]

2:39. Oh god, you had to say it.

[@alienvspredator444]

I wonder if anyone did do a report on the pirate ships

[@drradon]

It´s not that they produced any games like these anymore.

[@LittleMissEvel]

Any other recommendations for games like these?

[@kotaku]

A what?

[@benbennit]

Wow how did a studio manage to turn so baddddd. So much quality then so much crap.

[@Pharmatonic]

RIP LucasArts

[@UnveiledTrue]

Hello my name is Manny Calavera and I'm your new travel agent.

[@Matiax84]

Well, there is Telltale...

[@aSHTEBALA]

I don't know, I'm not sure why I said that.

[@ThatShyGuyMatt]

Modern games are nice don't get me wrong, but my fav games were from Lucas Arts.

[@TetasyGoles]

why disney why?

[@SeriouslyBlank]

Never pay more than 20 dollars for a video game.
