One of my favorite games ever.. i wish lucasarts would port all their old games over.. If you jailbreak your iPad you could install Scummv on it and could play all their old adventure games.. But I would gladly pay them money for ports of Day of The Tentacle, Sam and Max, Indiana Jones and the fate of Atlantis, the Dig and Full Throttle |
Scratch The Dig and replace it with Monkey Island 3, Indy and the last Crusade, Maniac Mansion, Zak McKracken or Loom. All of them are way better than The Dig, imo the only boring and completely uninspired adventure game LucasArts has ever made (no wonder, it's based on an idea by thinktank and world-class humorist Steven Spielberg).
I don't just want more remakes/ports from LucasArts, I also hope EA one day realize that they could port The Legend of Kyrandia 1-3 to TabletPCs, Westwood's great adventure trilogy. I want Overhaul Games (the guys who currently work on Baldurs Gate 1+2) to port Interplay's great Star Trek games 25th Anniversary and Judgment Rites. I want Discworld 1+2+Noir, Toonstruck and a plethora of Sierra and Dynamix adventure games.
3 other ports of classics are at least already in the works: The Last Express, The Longest Journey, and the oldest of them all, Shadowgate (originally from 1987).
TabletPCs are perfect for p&c games. I wonder if the slow German adventure developers will ever realize this and start developing their games as multiplats (as the more clever US guys from Telltale already do). Daedalic is working on a port of Edna & Harvey. That's at least a start.
@Exile1987:
Many people around the world know and absolutely love DOTT and still play it from time to time on PC or other systems via ScummVM. DOTT is #4 in my personal book of best adventure games ever made (MI1, MI2 and Indy 4 take places 1 to 3).
