Default LucasArt is not more ESA!

See, for example, http://www.gamesindustry.biz/article...rts-leaves-esa : LucasArt is leaving ESA.

Does this affect the abandoned status of old LucasArt games?

don't forget that most of them are still sold so..=/

hey but i remember that lucas had "infinity" protection to their games. does that somehow relate to the lucas arts company itself, or it's just broken since they left esa? what was the deal?

ebay is auction. there are still officially original-for-sale bought copies. still in packages sold on amazon, cdaccess and other places.

yeah when there is no "NEW" then it's second hand, therefore not sold

by the way do not double post please
