Normally I'd be excited, thinking that it was a new Monkey Island. Now that that's out from Telltale though, ain't happening.
Unfortunately, Lucasarts have jaded me so much I'm just thinking "It's going to be another Star Wars game". And 99% of the time in recent years I'd have been right.
So I'm playing the easy option here. And if it happens (and it almost certainly will), I TOTALLY called it.
@TrIp13G: Must admit, I've not actually owned any Star Wars games (have played a couple briefly and enjoyed them though, the early Playstation ones). It's just that they've saturated the market with so damned many that the whole thing's gone completely stale.
@peterpanpiper2: in other news: G. Keighley blows his cover on the infamous kotaku.com message board. Police Officer Barney: "We found over 100 dangerous posts which had the goal to create a new cult around himself"

The question is will this be an "Original" game, ala Force Unleashed where it's another Star Wars game with stapled elements from another popular game series or will it be a non-existing property Original?
@Monsoon77: What if it was a glorious new point-and--click adventure game? Would you be excited then? Or does the lack of "BANG-BANG-SPLOSION-BIGGER SPLOSION" noises turn you off?
@chaoticumbrella: I stopped caring about point and click adventure games after my age reached double digits. I really want Indiana Jones but Lucas Arts for some reason doesnt want money.
as much as i want this to happen,this fridays announcement is a new IP altogether...from rumours i have heard its the game that TookiGuy says below..Lucidity,and with the achievement page of it on xbox360achievements.org,there are only 200 points/12 achievements,meaning its a XBLA game
Sim-Lucasarts.

and best of all, sitting on beloved intellectual properties with no intent of using them.
@Demonbird: All I ever do in that game is tell George to go into his den and write up another script for Star Wars, and then when I get bored of that, I have him start a fire with money. Then I remove the door and place Jar Jar Binks in the room with him.

The age of KotOR and Jedi Knight is over, to say nothing of Sam and Max or Maniac Mansion.
