Well, I won't quarrel that thought (though I'm absolutely certain such a shrewd parody is light years from Alliance's mind). However, I hope you're aware that Sierra never just updated games out of sheer boredom. They only updated the first editions of each of the flagship series' to VGA graphics (Police Quest, Leisure Suit Larry, King's Quest--technically only an EGA update, Space Quest, Quest for Glory). One of their producers once told me that they had a plan to update every EGA adventure to VGA had fan interest been higher, but even during the Golden Age people didn't really care to spend that much money on remakes.
Who's dishing out lewd misinformation now?

Besides, once I finish the damn thing, I'll become sort of popular, and then I'll make something original (I've got a guy on my team who's making a space game right now) So just wait. If you don't like it, play something else. |
