Yeah! Good point! And HF looks great in all the recent publicity appearances and the video interviews. Certainly good enough to do another Indy where they could maybe add a few (imporvised?) bits about "I'm getting too old for this s**t!" kind of Danny Glover/Leathal Weapon type jokes. Maybe even parallel Indy becoming more like his dad - and hating it!! ;-))

If not, then perhaps the future of Indy is interactive. Now from what I've seen of Monkey Island 4, detractors aside, it'll be a great game in the vein of Grim Fandango. If therefore it's a popular title then maybe Lucasarts could sling together an Indy game using Monkey Island 4 adventuring and Infernal machine action. THAT would be a worthy successor to Fate of Atlantis!!!

(Or perhaps George and Steve are just waiting for Sean Patrick Flannery to turn 40 so they can pick up where they left off ;-) ...or Alec Baldwin assuming the role of a Ford character to get his own back?!)
