The long-running Leisure Suit Larry produced yet one more adventure game today, with Leisure Suit Larry: Box Office Bust.

In addition to the PC version, Larry is making a first-time appearance on consoles (Xbox 360 now, PS3 version coming later.) In this one, you control Larry, in an sandbox-style adventure game where the primary goal is to save the day while having sex with as many ladies as possible. There are mini-games in this game (for those of you who like gaming while you game) and the focus is on comedy, as you try to save a movie studio, or something.

This game is a follow-up to the 2004's Leisure Suit Larry: Magna Cum Laude, which was a college-life focused collection of mini-games that got mostly thrashed by the critics, but had a certain sort of immature charm to it. 

Prior to Magna Cum Laude, there were 6 games from 1987 to 1996, all classic adventure quest games from Sierra On-Line. The original creator and series writer, self-taught programmer Al Lowe, was the man to love or hate for those 6 games, while he would like everyone to know that he has absolutely nothing to do with this game and Cum Laude.

In the first six games, you played Leisure Suit Larry. In the new games, you play the nephew of Larry. It's sort of interesting: the old Larry used to be a hopeless loser who had hardly any skills attracting women, while the new Larry is a popular, more attractive person with money and power. Also, the new Larry doesn't actually wear leisure suits anymore, but for whatever reason, that doesn't stop people from calling him "leisure suit Larry." Perhaps this will be explained in a sequel. 

Box Office Bust features voice acting talents Carmen Electra and Tom Arnold, amongst other experienced actors.
