My name’s Larry. Larry Laffer.

According to a news item at Adventure Gamers, there’s a new installment in Sierra’s classic Leisure Suit Larry series in the works. Series creator Al Lowe isn’t involved, and rumor has it that Leisure Suit Larry: Magna Cum Laude (groan) will incorporate gameplay elements reminiscent of Grand Theft Auto, only with more sex and less violence. Oookay.
Anyway, for all those LSL fans out there, here’s hoping that this project fares better than Escape Factory’s Space Quest 7 and LucasArts’ Full Throttle 2.
Also, just to address some of the confusion that’s already popping up online with regards to this announcement, Josh Mandel–co-designer of such games as Space Quest 6 and Freddy Pharkas Frontier Pharmacist–is not involved in Magna Cum Laude; as noted over at the Subspace Channel, he merely wrote an upcoming preview of the game for Computer Games Magazine.
