TCW Podcast Episode 109 - Adventuring with LucasArts Part 2

This our second half looking at LucasArts adventure games. We look at a company that for a time could do no wrong! Innovative storytelling, and gameplay with Monkey Island 2, Day of the Tentacle, and Sam & Max hit the Road being prime examples. However due to retail outlets, competition, and the continuing technological advancement of the computer industry; LucasArts was unsuccessful in transitioning into the 3-D space. The commercial flop of Grim Fandango, and Escape from Monkey island was the last attempts at adventure games using 3-D.
