Perhaps opens up potential for a third Laura Bow?

The technology has never been more ready
Hmm, I don't think we'd really want to see that, though. If they were to make a third game it wouldn't be a proper adventure; it would probably have 3D graphics and action sequences, and that sort of gameplay never really works for a game which ought to have been a pure point-'n-click adventure. 3D graphics and action sequences completely ruined the later Indiana Jones games, and it would probably be the same for Laura Bow.

Unfortunately, you are right, as I have just realised.

No games developer around would want to have a 'proper' adventure game unless it had tons of unnecessary action in it. Still, the second Longest Journey game is a good benchmark, as is Fahrenheit...but maybe I'm being too optimistic.
