LucasArts devs will play through the early part of the game for approximately an hour and answer viewer questions. The event will not be recorded, so you'll have to make a date if the event interests you. Or, you know, someone out there in the stormy seas of the internets can record the event and then maybe slide a link where people can watch it later. You know, in the comments here or something. Too right, now ye be thinkin' like pirates!

Exactly. This is GREAT. I can't wait to see them re-release more old games. I think pretty soon we'd becoming up to Xwing, Tie Fighter, Xwing Versus Tie Fighter and finally Xwing Alliance which were all AWESOME games and its been so long since we had a really good star wars flight simulator.

Sorry dude but i can´t agree more with the rest of the guys, just think how many star wars___"put the kind of game that we are going to make here" ____ we have seen so far for the last 10 years, then we can talk about running out of ideas. I was thinking that lucasarts should change their name to starwars games. But now they decide to bring some of the old and maybe best games of all times back to life, and you think that´s bad?? dude, in the middle of all the doom-clones believe me nothing could be better than monkey island. well, maybe one thing.....maniac mansion.

That scene appears to be from the crappy-ass 4th installment.

Soo, are they really playing Tales of Monkey Island, since that's what's pictured. And if they are, why are the people from Lucasarts instead of Telltale who's actually developing the game?
And if it's the Secret of Monkey Island remake that they're playing, maybe Joystiq should put up an image of that instead.

Hey, we don´t really want a remade Monkey Island. Just give us the pixellated one and we´ll be fine.

You get both in the upcoming game, and are able to switch between them in real time.

Aha. The realtime switching sounds like a really cool feature. But then, why would I switch to the new one :D I wish the´d just sold the old one as a standalone at gog.com

It definitely helps to add the "games" to the address. You think they'd update that... But thanks for the heads up.

thanks for the post! i've checked justin.tv and i'm really amazed that these people did such a good job. too bad it doesn't have the latests tv shows like gossip girls. wish also the quality would be the same as on cacaotv where you can watch free movies and TV shows online (over there : http://www.cacaotv.com). but at least these websites are better than torrent pirate bay because they are legal!
