The goal that the team at GOG.com has been working towards since it opened its doors back in 2008 has been accomplished. LucasArts games are now on GOG.com. X-Wing, Tie Fighter, Knights of the Old Republic, and The Secret of Monkey Island Special Edition are only available for Windows, while Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis and Sam & Max Hit the Road are available for Windows, Mac, and Linux.
That's right, the SCUMM games are actually using ScummVM! The lawyers who used to work for Lucas legal probably nearly had a heart attack when they read this news.
Kinda disappointing that the best DOS versions aren't the ones being sold.
Lots of discussion here, so hopefully GOG will remedy this.

I mean, I watched a recent Blu-ray edition of Dances with Wolves last week and the opening logos still include Orion Pictures, which if you are not aware, was decimated eons ago. Okay, it's probably a shoddy comparison.

Is there a reason the announcement omitting the "LucasArts" name, using "Lucas titles" and "Lucasfilm games" instead?
The copyright notices on individual games does mention LucasArts.
