Jaffe Wants Eat Sleep Play To Work On A New Indy Game?

Last week, we learned that LucasArts had terminated development on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 next-gen Indiana Jones game, which came as a big disappointment to fans...including Eat Sleep Play co-founder and God of War creator, David Jaffe.

During a recent 1Up interview, Jaffe spoke about his affection for the long-running movie franchise, and he even expressed interest in picking up where LucasArts left off. In other words, he might want to work on an Indiana Jones game if LucasArts was willing to toss the project over to Eat Sleep Play. Jaffe cited "Raiders of the Lost Ark" as inspiration for his "creative development" and he further mentioned that the Indy films were "very important to him." When prompted, Jaffe replied:

"Do I think I will ever (make an Indiana Jones game)? I don't know. I have a great idea for how LucasArts could really take that property and do cool things with it. ...if they're (LucasArts) reading this, they should give us a call at Eat Sleep Play. We'd love to talk to them."

Well now, that's an idea. Does anyone else have a problem with putting a new Indy game in Eat Sleep Play's hands? We certainly don't. These guys know games and if anyone is capable of producing an awesome, must-have title based on a movie series (dear God, could it be possible?), it's Jaffe and Co. And at this point, we wouldn't be surprised in the least if LucasArts did give 'em a call...in fact, we implore them to.

um..lucasarts..do it..now

I would love to know for sure what Eat Sleep Play is working on. The Twisted Metal Rumors are still just rumors until something is officially announced.

Lucas arts SUCKS. they mess up Unleashed, cancel Battlefront 3 and now they cancel Indy? Fail.

I agree 100%. With the best franchise in history (Star Wars), I'm un-impressed with what has been put out there.
Indy would be an awesome game if it was developed by another company (which will never happen).

I really like The Force Unleashed. Great Story with entertaining gameplay. My only problem was the bosses were too difficult in comparison to the rest of the levels.

Lucas Arts is more of a publsihed than a developer. Although the Jedi Knight Series was created by them and they were definitely great games. Kind of a shame we got no MP in The Force Unleashed. I figured they were waiting or Battlefront 3.

I don't think Battlefront III, but I was wondering weither or not that Indy game was canceled. I never heard anything about it for about 2 years now since the first gameplay footage.

Still waiting for more Twisted Metal info.
