Who are these people who review and praise a game that hasn't even come out yet! Yeesh.

The reviewer below says that it should be as good as the previous Larry games well there's something you should know.

The Leisure Suit Larry series was created by Al Lowe who made every title until he and hundreds others were fired by Sierra.

Al Lowe had NO contribution to this title, (Even though Sierra said he would be involved!) this title is the concotion of a third party developer who have never made an adventure game in their life. From previews I've heard the game is alright but it's obvious that is hasn't got the distanct influence Al Lowe gave his games to make them personal and fun. Another critcism I heard is that it relies too much on nostalgia.

For what it's worth, I'm not getting the game until Al Lowe gives his apporval. I'd advise fans do the same, but please don't praise a game you haven't played yet...

Or is this guy below me a marketing goon?

What a waste of money! Lots of hype, really dull gameplay!

This game will amuse and entertain an inexperienced 12-15 year old kid. So if your not in that age range....skip this game.

It is dull, repetitive, uninspired. This game was hyped up to sell you on the concept that it was going to be a baudy, risque' game for adults. Well, there is certainly no nudity. There are certainly no interesting game moments. You spend your time playing skill games equivalent to FROGGER to accumulate points to "score" with the targeted female. YAWN!!!!!!!

It is brief, dull, pointless. Here is the worst part...the scumbags behind Larry (Sierra- which has been teetering on collapse for years now) are releasing an "UNCENSORED" version that includes nudity. So if you already WASTED $30, you will have to do it again! Here's a tip...if you already own LSL,you can download NUDE patches for the game from some of the popular gaming websites that will make it exactly like the uncensored version for FREE!!!!! Just Google it and you'll find it.

Save your money. Teach these guys a lesson by not buying this game. Make them pay in GREEN for doing crappy work, hyping a product and trying to steal/waste your money!

Gets boring 10% into the game

The charm of the previous LSL games is completely gone. The "humor" is extremely lame, forget about the witty humor in the previous series.

Plus the way you advance is by playing minigames. This wouldn't be all that bad ( well it's nothing like the original where you are directly making decisions affecting the story) but you have to play the same mini games over and over and over again. And these are stupid games that can be programmed on a TI-83 calculator.

Biggest waste of money on a video game....

This isn't my LSL.. this is a cheap knockoff.

I'm 24 yrs old.

Where's Al Lowe?

I notice that there's no mention of Al Lowe anywhere from Sierra. Here's the simple truth - if the genius creator of LSL's 1 - 6 is missing, then this isn't an LSL game at all - just a cheap rip off.

Message to pointy-haired bosses at Sierra: You can buy the LSL concept. You can buy Larry's image. But if you don't have Al Lowe, you don't have anything.

Where's Al Lowe when we need him?

What a travesty! And it's a good thing for Al Lowe (the man behind the original LLL series) that he had nothing to do with this pathetic loser of a game. Leisure Suit Larry was meant to be an old fashion "adventure" (roll playing) game, the fun was in the interactions, the discovery of the use of various items you found, not to mention the humor of the game. Okay, we have the humor (kind of)..but we have just about nothing else. Shame on everyone for this rip off of a classic.

Very bad.

Sierra brought us many wonderful titles over the years, including the Kings Quest, Hero's Quest, Police Quest, and Leisure Suit Larry serials. In most cases, they did a good job putting together creative, cute, situation driven puzzle games. Here, they delivered an appalling blend of poor graphics, bad language, and simplistic game play.

Gone are interaction with characters, puzzles, and good writing. Instead, one plays simple 2-D mini-games and views poorly developed cut-scenes.

The game is a bizarre blend of exceptionally childish "humor," such as fart jokes and random acts of not-very-clever profanity, coupled with 4 or 5 mini-games so shoddy and simplistic they recall the days of CGA. Too simple for those over 10, too profane for those under 16, this game would not be worth playing if it were free. At $50, Sierra sells their reputation and little else. I will think twice, and read some reviews, before purchasing another Sierra product.

What happened to the humor of Larry Laffer??

Well....what can I say. This is the worst Larry game ever. I had so much fun with all of the other ones, from Land of the Lounge Lizards to Love for Sail...I have played them all (sometimes several times each) and had a ball. The games were actually funny and enjoyable back when you needed to use your wits, not your joystick hand (pun intended!)to have a good time.

This version, however is not only boring, but repetitive and crass. Where, in previous Larry adventures, the sexual humor was witty, here it is just crude and obnoxious. It takes quite a lot to offend me, but this game has done it. I played it for a very short while before uninstalling it...I have NEVER done that before with a game and I have played dozens and dozens, some not so great, but never bad enough not to finish.

Another very annoying thing is the screen loading. Every time you try to do anything, (talk to a girl, play a game, enter a building, etc...) you have to wait several seconds for the screen to load. What a pain!

It was much better when Larry was an inventory/adventure game.

All I can say is this: if you like to play very poorly designed arcade games, and you like to hear the "F" word a lot, you'll like this game. Otherwise, don't waste your money.

Worst disappointment ever!

What they have done to the LSL line is a travesty. There is no adventure, no strategy, just mind-numbing mini games that Larry must play. The mini games are boring and stupid. The games on my cell phone are better than these. One of the games involves pressing the arrow keypad in the correct sequence over and over. EG the computer will tell you to press "Up, down, left right, left, up, left, down, right" very fast. You must get the sequence right, and then copy several more sequences. Remember "My Simon"? It's like that. The rest of the mini games are equally bad. Avoid this game at all costs!

Take care for the costs

I bought this game and I had to call for technical support because it was not working and first thing I discover I need a new video card because if you don't have a card that support lighting it will not work, this is not fair because it's not specify when you purchase the game...

Wrong Game!!!

I ordered the Uncensored and Uncut Adults Only Version and recieved the mature version, if i wanted that i could have bought it at wal-mart. So i hope they fix that problem with me promptly, otherwise a smooth transaction!
