Leisure Suit Larry: Box Office Bust

All I know about BOB is what I've read online. VU has not consulted me nor discussed anything with me. In fact, they've expressed no interest in me whatsoever.

In case you missed the news, Sierra (oops, I mean "VU Games," no, wait, "A-B") has announced another Larry Lovage game (although this time they misspelled his name "LovEage"): Leisure Suit Larry: Box Office Bust. The game's Executive Producer John Melchior says it has "open world sand box gameplay," racing, platforming, and puzzles and yet also repeats four times that "it's an adventure game." Larry BOB (any relation to Microsoft Bob?!) has already announced its voiceover talent (which always makes for good gameplay), including some medium-big name stars. Here are some links about it:

Mr. Melchior says he wants to make a game that "Al Lowe would like to play." Here's one way to guarantee that: hire Al Lowe to do it! <grin>

Ah, well; it's got to be better than Magna Cum Laude!
