VGChartz's Joseph Trotter: "I love grass! Particularly I love digital grass. For me not the soft brush of dirt across my trousers or the crippling hay-fever as I pass yet another field of barley for my work; no, I long for the swathes of pixelated graminoids that glisten in the sun, move entirely unnaturally out of a heavy-footed character and wilt under the hot, hot death of a spaceship's thrusters. Who has ever discussed grass in gaming? No one. Why? Because it would be ridiculous.
AND YET HERE WE ARE."
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!
GRTV's David Caballero talked to Leisure Suit Larry creator Al Lowe at Gamelab in Barcelona.
"It's difficult to do humour in games. Period. Whether sexual or not, because in a game you have freedom to do what you want to do. That's the whole point of gaming. A bad game locks you into a path, you don't like that, you want to be able to do things as you want to do them. That's the opposite of what works in humour."
"What I believed is that people have been wandering in the desert th past decade, and that they are ready for something a little different and something that will make them smile."
I always thought Naughty Dog and Insomniac use to do it pretty well. Daxter and Quark used to crack me up all the time.
What is with the disagrees? I liked Daxter and Quark and I thought they were funny.
FINALLY!!!!
I have Larry 5 on my old skool Amiga 500+ ...great game apart from the disk swapping lol:
if Al Lowe's involved, you can count me in
