Hardcore Gamer: While many haven't even had the chance to download Reloaded yet, developer Replay Games have already set their sights on continuing the franchise with Leisure Suit Larry 2, also known as "Leisure Suit Larry Goes Looking for Love (in Several Wrong Places)"
Carl Williams writes, "It is a sad day when we see things like this. Al Lowe, creator of Leisure Suit Larry while at Sierra On-Line, put a few files up for auction on eBay recently. As expected, fans of Leisure Suit Larry 1 and 2 quickly made this become a “big thing” in the retro gaming community. By becoming a big deal though, the auctions caught the eye of current owner of many Sierra On-Line intellectual properties, such as Police Quest and King’s Quest to name a few. This is important because that company is Activision and they have taken legal action against Mr. Lowe in reference to those two auctions. End result, those auctions are now pulled."
So after looking more into what i am seeing is he only did this for purchased distribution. So we would have to see this in court but i doubt this will happen and fuck actoshit for this. They dont even own this IP
i still look at at those sierra games as one of my favorite eras in gaming....kings quests, police quests, colonels bequest (prob my fav ever game)...you had to actually play through and work out puzzles yourself as internet wasnt widely used then....nothing better than the feeling of finding some of the hidden objects and secret passages in colonels bequest....these days you get stuck its easy to search.....can still remember getting stuck on manhunter and had to write to sierra to ask for help....three weeks later got a letter with hints to help me progress lol
Aww that sucks. MetalJesus did a whole video on it too. https://www.youtube.com/wat...
Maximum PC: It's been nearly two decades since the last Leisure Suit Larry game launched. No need to check our math, we're intentionally ignoring the releases of Magna Cum Laude (2004) and Box Office Bust (2009), both of which inexplicably shunned Al Lowe in the development process even though he made it be known he wanted to participate. But let's not cry over spilled beer, the original Leisure Suit Larry is back on the prowl, and this time, Al Lowe was involved from start to finish.
GOG.com is a DRM-free digital sales service. They are pleased to say that they have released Leisure Suit Larry's Greatest Hits and Misses!
