Despite rumors, LucasArts is 'committed' to new Indiana Jones game

According to a LucasArts representative, "LucasArts remains absolutely committed to the Indiana Jones franchise. While we are aware that fans have been eagerly awaiting additional information on the upcoming game, they can rest assured that details are forthcoming."
Well, that doesn't sound like the game is dead, although there's certainly wiggle room in that quote to speculate that the long-in-development title has been killed with another taking its place. Of course, that would just be our old friends Rumor and Speculation stopping by to say hi.

Sweet!!!

How about they commit themselves to a new Monkey Island game (and more like 1, 2, and 3, not 4), Full Throttle, or another Grim Fandango?
Because if the new Indiana Jones game is anything but a SCUMM-powered game, I'm not interested.

Because it's easier and cheaper to pinch off Lego shovelware and pacify opposition with nebulous rumors.

Ugh, hell no, I mean, those titles without Ron Gilbert, Tim Schafer, and Dave Grossman? No thank you...

Give me Hal Barwood, or give me death!

I think I might agree with you.
Seriously, all they had to do was adapt Fate of Atlantis into a movie and it would have been 1 bazillion times better than whatever the hell that was that came out last year. Cause as you all know, FoA kicked ass.

Well it doesn't really make a difference since one's already been made ( Uncharted)
Alex @ Jan 12th 2009 7:21PM
True.

If it were a new adventure game I'd be interested in it.

Been waiting for this one for a long time. I nearly exploded when I heard the rumors of cancellation this morning.
Noshino @ Jan 12th 2009 7:42PM
But they were also committed to making SW the Force Unleashed and Fracture...

They'll try their best to get their crapware to you the way they intended! They have the George Lucas seal of approval afterall!

I think Lucas it too busy laughing at us and planning Indy's trip to an alien cave in the sub-arctic, where he'll meet the elves.
VaultICEE @ Jan 12th 2009 7:46PM
I'll probably run outside and punch a couple of puppies the second I hear they've really canceled it.
The Dark Wayne @ Jan 12th 2009 8:20PM
but what about KOTOR 3 or Battlefront 3?!?
Doug @ Jan 12th 2009 8:37PM
Battlefront 3 was canceled... wasn't it?
The Dark Wayne @ Jan 12th 2009 9:08PM
I know! but im so desperate!
