LucasArts is a mess these days. They are no longer the can't miss game company of years ago. They probably realized that adventure games don't sell very well these days and both the Full Throttle and Sam & Max sequels were most likely running behind schedule so they decided to cancel them rather than sink any more money into development.
If they're going to pump out yet more Star Wars games, they should at least do another X-Wing/Tie-Figher flight sim game. I'd totally go for that.
The best part of the original Full Throttle to me was the soundtrack, done by the Gone Jackals. Makes for great driving music.
