Codemasters is bringing Larry back |

It’s confirmed. Codemasters and Team 17 are bringing Leisure Suit Larry back (h/t Big Download). Not too long ago, the game’s fate was undetermined after Vivendi Games (the original developer) merged with Activision. Now, according to Codemasters’ website, Leisure Suit Larry: Box Office Bust will come out this April for the PC, 360, and PS3.
The world needs more well written adventure games, and the Leisure Suit Larry series was always one of the better ones. In Box Office Bust, the player will not assume the role of Larry Laffer, but instead play as his nephew, Larry Lovage (better last name), who is trying to help his uncle in the movie business. You might have thought that hitting on large breasted women would have gotten old the 9th time around, but many people–not me of course–still find it amusing. I couldn’t possibly understand why….

I admit I didn’t play the last one, but since it was nothing like the original games (point n’ click adventure vs. Minigames) I don’t expect it or it’s sequel to be worth my time. Now if they brought back LSL and Al Lowe and the original format on PSN, XBLA, or Wii I would piss my pants. Those games were funny as hell.
I mean… what other game series actually included a scratch n’ sniff card?
