Full Throttle sequel canned.
Here's the very brief press release from Lucasarts.

Color me disappointed. Well, at least the Sam & Max sequel is still coming out.

LucasArts has decided to stop production on Full Throttle: Hell on Wheels.
“We do not want to disappoint the many fans of Full Throttle,” says Simon Jeffery, president of LucasArts, “and hope everyone can understand how committed we are to delivering the best quality gaming experience that we possibly can.”

I didnt even know Full Throttle was a popular game. Back in the day, I remember my friend giving to me because it would run on his PC, I had such a great time playing that game, it the first 3d game I ever played on the PC. When I read about the sequel, I was excited but something in the back of mind told me I would never get to play it. What a shame

Translation: The game we were working on blew goats, so we decided instead of putting out a pile of poo, we'll just scrap the project.
That's sucky... I wanted a sequel. I wasn't impressed with the direction they were going with it, but I was hopeful.

I rarely play PC games anymore being in college with little time and even less money.
This was one game I was planning on setting aside some time to play.
Perhaps they will bring out a new DOTT.

I am really disappointed. There are three Lucasarts adventure games that I think stand head and shoulders above the rest (and yes, I've played them all).
Here's hoping for a Grim Fandango sequel. It was really the best of the bunch.
- Full Throttle
- Sam and Max Hit the Road
- Grim Fandango
