Well, at least the Lucasarts (then Lucasfilm games) team... programming SCUMM.

SCUMM??? huh?

It's funny... I remember all of those kinds of games... and I had no idea that a giant mother-lode of them were programmed under this language. Granted, "Full Throttle" and "The Dig"... sure. But others? Pretty killer.

By the way, if you are too young to have ever played Full Throttle or The Dig... they are STILL pretty righteous games. "The Dig" stars Robert Patrick as the main voice-over... also known as the T-1000 in T2... and your "replacement" tough guy in X-files for Mulder.
