Oh how the mighty have fallen

At first I was really saddened by this. Then I read that they're closing the dev company and licensing out the franchise to other developers to mitigate risk. It's a truly sound and safe business move. I started thinking about all of my favorite Lucas Arts games and I couldn't help but think:

FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS HOLY LET SOMEONE MAKE Xwing Vs Tie Fighter 2!

I would say that they should make a Dark Forces 3 but Kyle Katarn's story was pretty well wrapped up with DF:JKII.

I felt a great disturbance in the Force. As 150 developers cried out in terror, and were suddenly fired.

Yeah, but you know what 'suddenly fired' in the Galactic Empire means... T_T
