LucasArts announced it will bring its entire catalogue of games to Steam, as well as other digital distribution networks, over the next few months. The first releases will be published tomorrow, these games will be tweaked to run on Windows XP and Vista and what makes it even more interesting is that LucasArts will also publish unreleased and hard-to-find versions of some games.
The full list of games getting the Steam treatment hasn't been fully unveiled, but the initial line-up will include the following ten games and will be available tomorrow - Armed and Dangerous, Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade: The Graphic Adventure, LEGO Indiana Jones: The Original Adventure, LOOM, Star Wars Battlefront II, Star Wars Republic Commando, Star Wars Starfighter, The Dig, Thrillville: Off the Rails.

On July 15th the initial batch of re-releases will be bolstered by the launch of The Secret of Monkey Island: Special Edition, which will also be available on Steam and will be a graphical and audio overhaul of the original adventure classic.
