Ho-hum. Yeah, I guess it's not really anything to get excited about. The scummvm guys have already done such a great job that it's practically a no-brainer to get these games running on modern hardware. I hope they'll at least do a good job with the manuals and do something about the copy protection. That was always an annoying thing to have to deal with back then.

As I recall, you needed to consult the manual frequently to play LOOM and the Indiana Jones one was just downright evil.

According to the article they'll be kind enough to provide PDF documentation to "get around" the copy protection (i.e., not removing it). Definitely nothing for long-time fans to see here...
