"LucasArts has decided to stop production on Sam & Max
"After careful evaluation of current market place realities and underlying economic considerations, we've decided that this was not the appropriate time to launch a graphic adventure on the PC" says Mike Nelson, Acting General Manager and VP of Finance and Operations. There is currently no plan to reduce staff."
From Adventure-Treff.de:
"Heute ist ein sehr, sehr trauriger Tag: LucasArts hat die Arbeit an Sam and Max: Freelance Police eingestellt. Was sich jetzt anhцrt wie ein schlechter und extrem verfrьhter Aprilscherz, entspricht leider der Realitдt. Schaut euch selbst die offiziellen Pressemitteilung an!
Dies trifft uns alle hier sehr, sehr hart! Zum einen, weil dieses Spiel wirklich sehr vielversprechend aussah (Steve Purcell und Mike Stemmle im Team, grandioser Teaser, Point and Click Steuerung...) und nun einfach seitens Chefetage "abgewьrgt" wurde.
Zum anderen, weil LucasArts in der Pressemitteilung gleich dem gesamten Adventuregenre eine klare Absage erteilt ("not the appropriate time to launch a graphic adventure on the PC")!
Natьrlich wissen wir, dass dies vцlliger Unsinn ist. Mit hochkarдtigen Spielen wie The Westerner, Syberia 2, The Moment of Silence, Runaway 2, The Longest Journey 2 wird uns der Nachschub noch so bald nicht ausgehen (und das sind noch lдngst nicht alle Titel)! Es gibt also keinen Grund zur Sorge.
Schade ist es trotzdem, dass gerade eine Firma mit einer so glorreichen Adventurevergangenheit wie LucasArts nun fьr uns Abenteurer gestorben ist."
From MixnMojo.com:
"Yep, they've done it. LucasArts has just announced that they've stopped work on Sam & Max 2, saying "After careful evaluation of current market place realities and underlying economic considerations, we've decided that this was not the appropriate time to launch a graphic adventure on the PC."
Don't believe that its possible? Here's the official announcement from LucasArts.com. Our best wishes go out to everyone on the Sam & Max 2 team, who are apprently all still going to be kept on at LucasArts.
To us, the decision seems completely absurd, and not just because "we love adventure games," or something. Surely Sam & Max's production was plagued with troubles, but from the sounds of it so is every game project. Everything that came out about Sam & Max seemed golden. The press was drooling over the game. It looked like they had a sequel going on that, unlike some other recent sequels, was actually going ot get it right. But now, out of the blue, its gone. Which really really makes all of us wonder..."
Das kann nicht war sein! Wir mцchten unbedingt "Sam and Max 2" spielen. Wir haben uns schon so darauf gefreut und die Nachricht hat uns alle umgehauen.
Mit dieser Petition versuchen wir Lucas Arts zu zeigen, dass "Sam and Max 2" unbedingt in naher Zukunft zu kaufen sein soll!
That cannot be was! We would like to absolutely play "Sam and max of 2". We looked forward already in such a way to it and the message have us all umgehauen. With these Petition try we Lucas kind to show that "Sam and max 2" is to have to be bought absolutely in the near future!
