Leisure Suit Larry Box Office Bust BOB Game to be Released in 2008

Yep, they're at it again..... it's another Leisure Suit Larry game set to be released in late 2008. It will be called Box Office Bust (BOB) and the story will be set around Hollywood. This game will be available for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, PC, and mobile phones.

For Al Lowe's comments on this, visit his website here. There are also links there to some other sites that are covering this story.

I did play Magna Cum Laude just to see what all the hype was about. One day I happened to see it at a local thrift store for $3.00 so I bought it. No way was I gonna pay full price for that game. I did not want to support this game, and encourage more lucrative sales, when I knew Al Lowe wasn't involved in his creation.

I found Magna Cum Laude to be uneventful, boring, predictable, and downright childish. Instead of good humor and puzzles, I was stuck with the mashing of buttons x, x, o, o, x, x........

This is my blog, my soapbox. The way I see it, you let Al Lowe back in the picture and Leisure Suit Larry will be a better game. If you let inexperienced game designers and corporate suits handle this series, they will drive it into the ground until there is nothing left - no sales, no fanbase, and unfortunately, you'll end up ruining the image of Leisure Suit Larry and the respect that the series has earned over the years. I can honestly say that without Al Lowe, this series is really going into the toilet.

You can PREORDER Box Office Bust online for Windows XP / Vista, PS3, and XBOX 360:
