New Leisure Suit Larry wut

[oldschool]

FYI:

Al Lowe had nothing to do with Magna Cum Laude or Box Office Bust and was quite adamant about his disappointment with the new Larry. They were designed by High Voltage Software and Team17, respectively.

Very bad reviews at Gamekult and some other sites.
Poor Larry! and poor Team17, they shouldn't have taken that "project" !
Hope it won't sell.

Yup.

If Al Lowe – the creator of Leisure Suit Larry – were dead, he would be spinning in his grave. But luckily Al is still with us so he’s probably just pulling out his hair instead. Well, maybe not as Al is a charter member of The Bald Hair Club for Men Club. But just to be on the safe side, I emailed the loquacious Mr. Lowe to inquire as to his involvement, if any, with Leisure Suit Larry: Box Office Bust, his response, “I am quite proud to say absolutely none!”

I think he even removed his name completely regarding the 3D-Larries. I understand him completely.

It's cruel to post this shit without giving some links to the old abandonwared games.

Oh, they are all ESA now? What a scam.

These news made me rage manually.

JustAdventure.com gives it a big fat zero.

An F? The reviewer was generous.

We are trying to create an American Sex Comedy in the style of American Pie, Superbad and Animal House.

Any Questions?

I have always been a believer that Nudity is a mask for poor gameplay

Sure. But in a Larry game??? They are not the right men for a Larry sequel.

I wonder if the reviewer went up to his boss and asked "How far below F can I go?"

Grade scales are serious business. If an F is as low as you can go, you better fucking stick with that F or your editor (or 'otherwise bossy character in your professional life') will kill you. You can't go with a G or something. That's fucking unheard of. Besides, what kind of fucking interior decorator bullshit cocksucker faggot whore FUCK!! doesn't like a big fat capital F?!

For the record, the reviewer, Randy Sluganski, is the editor of JA+.

Well shit, there you go then.

 

[ghostdog]

If JA+ gave it an F , then it may very well be the worst adventure game ever, or a masterpiece. Anyway, Randy Sluganski is a decent reviewer , unlike ,let's say, Ray Ivey who has no taste at all.

 

[bgillisp]

Has anyone on here actually played it? I'm wondering if this is the "So bad its worth playing once just to see the train wreck of a game" type of F, or "Don't even bother" type of F

I am in the middle of acquiring it as we speak.

For money, I mean. Out of morbid curiousity I ordered it yesterday. I suppose it'll arrive the day after tomorrow if things go smooth criminal.

What is this 'mature humor' they're talking about? Is it something connected to this:

There are jokes about masturbation, penis size, bestiality, inflatable sheep, lesbians, oral sex, and pornography (e.g., "I had to retire from porn, it became too much – I couldn't swallow it any more"); everyday objects and environmental features (e.g., statues, cacti, architecture) are sometimes stylized to resemble male genitalia or breasts

That'll be after tearing Geralt a new one, then.

LOLWUT?

That's ridiculously bad humour right there. And heck, what the fuck why do they always have to invent new relatives of Larry who are also called Larry but have a different surname? LOLWUT indeed. I'm not even touching this with a stick. Still haven't finished Larry 6 and 7, so I rather do that.

Talking about raping franchises... Looks like Bethesda at least used some lubricant.

 

[denizsi]

Doesn't that guy on the cover looks just like a despicable sick fucking pervert loser too? Especially the second screenshot on page 1. Larry was a lovely horny guy, not some despicably sick fucking pervert loser. They sure know how to cater to the new generation of gamers.
