Will the first Broken Sword games ever make it to the XBLA

I've been a massive fan of the first two Broken Sword games ever since they came out back in 1996 and 1997, being only five years old at the time . I would LOVE to see these titles appear on the XBLA and would happily pay 1200MSP for each of them. Any chance that they'll appear?

Re: Will the first Broken Sword games ever make it to the XBLA

They run on the Scumm engine (ScummVM :: Compatibility). Monkey Island has made it to XBLA, so Scumm has been ported to the 360. There's no technical reason why they shouldn't be released.

If they don't get released, you could always use the ScummVM on your PC/DS/Linux based fridge/iPhone/Wii/GP2X/PS2/etc to get your point and click fix.
