An as-yet-unmentioned game I'd like to see arrive is Afterlife. I'm looking forward to most of the big titles others have mentioned as well.

IAmSinistar: So far this thread has proven fruitful in that regard for me, as I am interested in the potential release of Outlaws, Secret Weapons of the Luftwaffe, and Their Finest Hour now that people have pointed them out.
Don't get your hopes up too high though, as these titles are not available on Steam, and I expect at least the first batch of games to be the ones that already saw a digital re-release, just not DRM-free yet.

You didn't mention the adventure games in your post, although I assume that's what most here remember and love LucasArts for, not necessarily for the Star Wars games - but I take it you're not into point-and-click adventures, right, because otherwise you would be excited about the possibility that the real classics of the genre, the best of the best, might finally arrive here? ;)

Hm, I certainly hope that GOG gets more games than the ones that are on Steam already. But even if they don't at first, they have at least a chance to handle things a bit better than Steam. *cough* Jedi Knight *cough* KOTOR *cough*

Actually, I do like P&C games quite a lot. I just didn't care for most of the ones that LucasArts put out, even back on the Amiga. I'm sure the unending hype about them put me off somewhat, but even the ones I tried just didn't appeal. Sorry about that.

But I'm happy for you all who love these games.
Shoot. Probably the entire catalog. Those I most treasure are on CD-ROM but I'm a sucker for their DRM-Free digital counterpart :)
1.) TIE Fighter (funnest glass cannon simulator)
2.) Secret Weapons of the Luftwaffe (Ve need ziz game!)
3.) Afterlife (Sim City 2000 under psychedelic drug influence)

Hm, that's unusual. Do you prefer serious stories to humurous adventures or what put you off? Which LucasArts titles did you try? And which other P&C games are your favorites?

I'm unusual. ;)

It's mostly the tone of the LucasArts games I didn't care for. And the humour just didn't cut it for me. I'm more of a Sierra and Wadjet Eye kind of P&C guy. And strange French titles like Kult and B.A.T..

Out of all the classic Lucas Arts P&C collection you should atleast give Grim Fandango a try when it comes out as no adventure game fan should go without playing the game IMO. :)

Full Throttle, the Indiana Jones series, Sam & Max, Loom, The Dig, Grim Fandango Remastered, etc. Once we have the Lucas Arts catalog the only point & click game I'll still be desperately wanting to see here is Discworld.

IAmSinistar: Assuming that all the chatter is correct and that Disney/LucasArts will soon be here, I thought it might be fun to get your top wishes for what titles you hope to arrive. I'm not a LucasArts fan, so I'm hoping there are some gems that I'm not aware of which will make me more excited about this potential partnership.

Right now the only one I'm personally hoping for is Tron 2.0. How about you?
Sinner! How can you not love LucasArts... if Kotor ever gets here you'll be punished and what's worse you'll have to finish it. Twice!
Basically everything, but the most:

KotOR 1+2
Dark Forces 1+2
Jedi Outcast
Grim Fandango
Indiana Jones games
Monkey island games
Sam & Max games + Day of the Tentacle
Full Throtle

I have played only some of them, but the remaining are milestones in gaming history, so I would definitely want to buy and play them.

Others, not so "important":
The Dig
Loom
the rest of Star Wars games
