Telltale = Lucasarts ?
I know... it might be a little difficult to compare Telltale and Lucasarts...
but I think that now no Company other than Telltale can hold the Lucasart's heritage.
And to me Telltale is one of the most important Adventures Companies among Lucasarts and Sierra. We waited another true Adventure Company almost 10 years now...I'm happy that Telltale was born.
I think that their games will be remembered among the classics.
What do you think?

I'd much rather have A. I mean, look at they're improvement. Every year they've been getting series out quicker and quicker, and in 20 more years, it will be near weekly overlapping releases.
Are you talking about the PAST EA or the PRESENT EA.
Because EA seriously has changed. Brütal Legend is only one example where they took the risk of trying something new.
I mean just like a general giant company, EA or Activision or whatever. You get the drift.
<Sybil> I chose A, for Abe: Telltale is still a small scale company with a quite large program, with weekly episode releases of different shows
<Stinky>: How romantic, but you're still WRONG!
<Abe> I chose B: it will be a megacorparation like EA, where many craptacular studios release things for the sake of releasing them, with massive ammounts of product disgracing the name of this great company.
<Stinky> I like a man with conviction, but WRONG!
<The Bug>
The answer is D!.. D!
[A glorious footnote on gamining history since Telltale was swallowed by your friendly neighborly Shambling Corporate Presence (Like EA)]
<Stinky> Of course you did dear, but you're WRONG! (We hope)
<Sam>
I chose C: Telltale is a larger company, churning out quality games without loosing the way it is now
<Stinky> You're wrong, wait, what happened?
This is very clever, but I am just saying my ways are the most likely ways for the company to go.
"LucasArt: Telltale, you shall become a part of a bigger whole"
or
"CNN Money: Telltale Games filed for bankrupcy after a segue of bad adventure games, which left the company without cash or supporters. A former employee - who wished to remain anonynous - said that he was shocked, but somehow after Blades Of Stenchtar XVII he sensed something was wrong. Around 300 employees, ..."
I wouldn't say that, Present EA are much better than they were say 5 to 6 years ago, you say Brutal Legend was the one example of trying something new, what about Mirrors Edge, SKATE, etc. Also EA seem pretty ok with studios these days, they pretty much let Criterion do what they want, obviously were ok with Double Fine, and Harmonix have admitted they get along good with EA and get more pressure from Viacom if anything.
If LucasArts keeps going on the adventure games' path (re-making MI2 and perhaps creating another IP in this genre) I might reconsider my dissapointment.
I certainly don't see TellTale making any non-graphic-adventure Star Wars game, like a FPS or a RPG, just to join the bunch.
But I would LOVE a good Star Wars Graphic Adventure. It's a genre that is pretty untouched in the franchise (Besides "Yoda Stories" there's nothing else, IIRC, and it was actually an action-adventure hybrid). And Telltale could do a great job.
I'm too lazy to type. I'll just quote da man.
This. A Star Wars adventure has been begging to be made since adventures began.
well someone's working on a fan-based han solo one. (i wonder how this is coming along?)
There is also this game. And Yoda Stories : )
