Leisure Suit Larry Box Office Bust
After the last one not sure this is good news, but hey...

P.s I think they are missing a trick by not releasing a Wii version.
Just imaging waggling the Wii-mote for that game :D |
Without Al Lowe it will not be a real LSL. It will be nothing more than a rehashing of "Loveage" garbage. It won't be an adventure. It will be yet another abuse of a respected franchise.

This isn't LSL. The LSL series died at age 7.

Really, must be hard to contact Al Lowe and let him design another Larry game.
I'm kinda shocked that Magna Cum Laude seems to have sold good enough to warrant a sequel. I expected that everyone boycotts since it doesn't have the charme (and failing humor, but still) of the old games. Well, maybe enough unaware buyers were turned on by the cover art... |

I really hope they do manage to do better!
I miss so much playing a fresh new Larry game. |
Team17 did the Worms games right? I'm sold.

It's definetely not a real Larry game, nothing without Al Lowe could be, but it could turn out to be a decent game on it's own, could being the operative word there. I like the idea of being able to direct your own movies, that could be fun, and Allen Covert is actually a pretty funny writer he seems a good match for this kind of materal. Plus it really seems like they're trying to make a good game this time, so that's a plus.

It will be what it will be. And everyone will decide whether it's worth buying. If "they" decide it's not, that will be the end of this Vivendi franchise. |

While it's not exactly a return to the Sierra days, I did have the opportunity to write a whole lot of the funny text and dialogue that's my meat-and-potatoes for the upcoming action/adventure "Insecticide." Somewhat ironically, the Insecticide team is made up fundamentally of ex-Lucas talent, and here was this lone ex-Sierra designer doing lots of the writing. (I know the PC version will have a good deal more in-game text than what I wrote, and I didn't have a hand in the cutscenes, but I probably did most of the text and dialogue for the adventure sequences in the DS version.) --Josh |

Josh -
So good to see you again as well. I think of you often, and continue to wonder what we might have been able to do with Calvin & Hobbes. Done deal. (Or the other FPFP thing.) Also done deal. Always a pleasure to exchange a message. And I should also ask when will this incredibly-awesom-humoritious (the last was a GWB word) game appear on the Rooney horizon. Tim |

Wow. Racing, platforming, and missions? And more Larry Lovage? And when did Larry Laffer get so famous that he warranted his own movie? Although, it would be cool if Larry senior was making a movie about his previous adventures, and as Lovage you could explore the sets of Lefty's bar, La Costa Lotta, the PMS Bouncy and others. Maybe GTA Larry wouldn't be that bad if done right.

the voice talent looks very good

No Nudity = No Buy
The humor and nudity is what made Magna Cum Laude sell what little it did. Removing the nudity from this game is just stupid, it will do worse than the last game, guaranteed. If they want to allow the game to sell in more countries as they say, then create two versions, cut and uncut just like they did on the last game, don't remove it alltogether. I'm still hoping they come out with a version that has nudity, that's the only way I buy this game.

This is a bad commercial copy, using the name of Larry to sell more, but this game isn't a Larry Game.
I don't know why they don't make a Larry game like the real style of Larry games and of course, with Al Lowe in the Team. Leisure Suit Larry ove for Sail was the best, they would make more games like that! |
