GamePen recently posted an artical called The Grumpy Old Man of Gaming. It is basically more about LEC closing down fan games, and more specifically, Legends of LeChuck, by our very own Matt Shaw (Narrative).
The Collum has a reply from the PR Dept. of LEC:
In addition, over the past few months we've become proactive in working with numerous fan sites such as mixnmojo.com and the scummbar.com. We've provided them with exclusive interviews with various game teams and the president of LucasArts, as well as demos of upcoming games (Escape from Monkey Island)....(Snip)....The bottom line is that we truly appreciate and respect our fans but we also have a responsibility to protect our property. We hope our fans will understand and respect our position on this.Interesting huh? Well the article is very interesting and delves into some topics I know every one of us has discussed over the last few months. Read it, and it's reply, you might learn someting.
