"You can be anyone you want in the movies."
Name of the offending title: Leisure Suit Larry: Box Office Bust.
What system was this forced upon: Xbox 360, PS3 and PC. We will be discussing the 360 version.
Who was responsible for this crap: So very many people. Team 17 developed it, Sierra/Vivendi commissioned it, Activision-Blizzard cast it off, Codemasters picked up, and it was published under the Funsta label. I suppose we have to, in some small way, credit Al Lowe for its existence as well, but the sins of the child cannot be entirely blamed on the parent, so we won't be yelling at him.
Date this abomination was foisted upon us: 03/31/09

The gameplay sucks, the story sucks, the jokes aren't funny and graphically it's pretty basic and dull. It's a budget title but it doesn't even deserve to be classified as that. Not only should you stay away from this game, you should also move as far away from any retail outlet selling it. Think of this game as the plague – the further away from it you are, the better."
Games32 writes: "It was a bold move in 1987 when Al Lowe and publisher Sierra got the first Leisure Suit game out on the market. The mature themes combined with the immature main character and a peculiar sense of humor paid off however, and ended up in one of the most successful, long-living and unique gaming series ever to see the light of day. So long-living and popular in fact that Team 17 and Codemasters just released another title based on old Larry."
