Leisure Suit Larry: Box Office Bust gets a publisher, release in April

Leisure Suit Larry: Box Office Bust - Image 1 


Larry Laffer, better known as Leisure Suit Larry, is now a movie mogul. But that doesn't mean the sleazy sexcapades are over. Enter Larry Lovage, Laffer's nephew who is starring in his very own game, Box Office Bust.

The game was part of the unlucky group that Activision dropped when they merged with Blizzard. Codemasters recently agreed to publish the game, which features the voice talents of Carmen Electra and Shannon Elizabeth. The game will be released this April for the Xbox 360 and the PlayStation 3.

Now kids, this is an M-rated game. You'll probably need to ask the older folk why. Be prepared for a lecture on the birds, the bees, and sexual harassment.

I love this series!!! But I can't say I really cared for the last one. Instant purchase either way. Maybe they'll get back on track.

# Hmm not sure this is going to be exactly what you guys are expectingavatar76 2009-02-23 16:01
The early press material on this suggested that this will be the first Larry game to feature absolutely no nudity whatsoever.

Sounds a bit cr@p to me guys.

The trailer ripping off gears of war's "mad world" teaser was pretty damn funny though.

Maybe the euro version will feature nudity (like Leasure Suit Larry Magna Cum Laude). :P

I always loved all the leisure Suit Larry games until the 7th...but after it the game lost all the fun...maybe this will be a come back but no nudity? What's the fun on a game which is based on sex and a guy trying to get laid without nudity? LOL...really, sometimes I think the world isn't evolving anymore...you can see nudity in movies, tv series etc but not on a game based on it?

What you just said makes no sense. There are other larry games with no nudity. So this wouldn't be the first. Even those WITH nudity.... it's stretch to claim as such to begin with. Unless you also think stick figures are nude?

it's entirely possible this is the first sign of your latent and emerging homosexuality?

# "where's dildo?"rollypoly 2009-02-24 08:41
it's never been the nudity that made the games good...



the best game so far (imo), LSL7 only had nudity as easter eggs.



it's the humor that ensured LSL will always have a place on my shelf.

# There's a euro uncut version of LSL MCLavatar76 2009-03-02 18:54
The euro featured full nudity and no black bars over pubic hair and breasts.

You're right though rollypoly you did have to do certain things in 7 to get to the nudity. But this new one is to feature no nudity period.

You're probably right though it was always more about the adult comedy in these games. I guess you don't need nudity for that, I just worry we're turning what has been an adult franchise over to the prudes. This is not a game for kids but that's kind of what's good about it, like Grand Theft Auto. Which doesn't feature nudity really either, well unless you count that dodgey scene in L+D where you come face to face with that naked guy.

# Yeah that's what I was getting at aboveavatar76 2009-03-02 18:58
Yeah I worry we're giving into prudes that think computer games are for children. Some games are, lots of games are not.

Probably the same idiot parents who think that don't want to supervise their kids, because who wants to be 4ssed working out if a game is appropriate for their kid to play.

# LSL MCL as according to Al Loweavatar76 2009-03-02 19:14

He's pretty close to the mark there on what is LSL MCL.

I agree with him the mini games are pretty well frustrating as hell. I wondered if they were trying to make a game which is completely focused on fun to play at a frat party or a buck's night. Because there's no way you could possibly get engrossed in the story line, because there is none!! There certainly isn't really any puzzles to solve.

# Oh and here's what he has to say about BoBavatar76 2009-03-02 19:20

Or Bob as he likes to call it.

Again no consultation with the man whatsoever.
