They might also rather capitalize on remakes like the Monkey Island games.

Hopefully one day though they'll see the light and come to GOG. I think GOG did say they were close to getting, if not signing on the dotted line, two more of the remaining big 5 to release here. So with luck someone is coming in the next year.
indeed, it was a classy move that.

Hey does LucasArts own the rights to Sam and Max: Hit the Road? If so then I definitely would like to see their games on GOG

Dear LucasArts,
You could release your old adventure games on GOG and stand to make some money out it and make a lot of fans (the reason you exist), who are willing to pay for it very happy. On the other hand you could continue to be stingy, greedy, hard-arse corporates in suits and millions of Internet users will just continue downloading illegal copies of your games for FREE as what is currently happening.
The choice is yours.

Or use the wishlist, that is what it's there for anyway.

Please, the wishlist is nothing more than a toy to amuse. Just look at how many votes Grim Fandango has and is it here yet?
I probably could, but was just having a bit of fun with my post. If GOG management can't secure the contract, I'm pretty sure our letters will achieve little.

Still, the post you linked to is two years old, things have changed quite a bit in that time and perhaps LA will reconsider. Hell, I would had never imagined EA on GOG.com, so anything is possible in my books.

Also this thread is interesting about lucas arts: http://forums.lucasarts.com/thread.jspa?threadID=143324
"Jaybroni": This has been asked before. I think the general answer LA gave is that because GOG.com doesn't incorporate any type of anti-piracy system into the files they sell, they were not considered as a viable outlet for downloadable games. If gog in the future incorporates some type of copy protection system, then LA may consider distributing through them.

That's not the point. The wishlist was created so people would stop posting stuff like this and to give GOG some real world numbers to show to publishers when they try to work out deals. All you are doing is necroposting useless old threads.

Can anybody verify this address? What I would be more than willing to participate in is if all the GOGGERS who want to see LA here could commit (perhaps on a thread) to write a letter to this address in a sort of mass action petition. We would have to verify the address though.
