Lucasarts To Announce New Indiana Jones Game Next Week?
Posted by Luke Plunkett at 12:20 PM on September 10, 2008
Yup, it's more from the GameStop Expo showroom floor! Latest whispers to drift out of Vegas and float across the internet's trade winds involve the MIA Indiana Jones game from Lucasarts, the one that first showed us how Euphoria was going to revolutionise the way we punched bad guys in the face. While it's been mentioned a few times in the past, word from the expo is that the game will finally be unveiled next week (remember, up til now it was just a "tech demo"), is based on the Force Unleashed engine, is due for 360 and PS3 and will be out in 2009.

Still don't under sand why they showed off that trailer way back then, only to forget about it.

I wonder if they'll ever top Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine.
I don't care what anyone else says, that game was great, and that was when LucasArts actually made GOOD games (the 90s) (Grim Fandango, Monkey Island, Full Throttle, etc.)

After playing TFU demo, I'm just not excited about this anymore even though I'm a big Indy fan. We can only hope its at least as fun as Emperor's Tomb was (with a better story though; so outlandish it made KotCS seem like a documentary).

If it ain't a point-and-click adventure game, count me out.

I still gotta wonder - when on Earth are we getting Euphoria in a PC game? Y'know, the good system capable of actually making things look good.

It originally demonstrated the physics that is now used in Force Unleashed. Could be fun, although the story-driven Indy games have always been better than the Action-loaded ones.

Sure, it looks good now. But pretty soon LucasArts will start announcing little changes. Instead of Nazis, Indy'll be fighting Stormtroopers (not the German soldiers, either). It's also going to take place "a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away". Oh, and Indiana Jones will be using lightsabers and the force. And they're renaming him from Indiana Jones to "Starkiller". Now THAT sounds like a game that LucasArts would actually be interested in.
