    Anyone try/going to pick up LSL: MAGNA CUM LAUDE?

    I just read a not so great review from IGN so i'm wondering if anyone picked up/going to pick up LEISURE SUIT LARRY: MAGNA CUM LAUDE. I'm thinking of picking it up but if the consensus is bad on it then i'll just make it a rental. So anyone played it?

    I am very familiar with this genre from the Apple II, as well as all the Sierra style quest games. IMO, they were some of the best games ever. If this is anything like them(I don't know much about this one yet), I would never even want to play it on a console. So if and when I get it, it will be on the PC.

                probably right, but still that concept just hasn't clicked with me yet

                    Game was ok, just not what i expected from the series. Too much hand holding, but it is rather funny at times and real raunchy. DEFINITELY not for little kids. The end was just kind of blah. You end up missing alot of the dialogue and funny moments when playing the games since you are so focused on winning the damn mini-games instead of watching the scenes unfold. The wife loved it though. there are 3 endings actually.


                    One thing, lots of loading when you go from one location to the next or initiating conversation, but the loading screens are worth it !

                    I enjoyed the old LSL's more than this one, but it was still ok, as a rental anyways.

                        Thanks for that bacardi I'll be renting it first before I decide to buy or not. I know that it's the raunchiest incarnation in the serie's history so it should be interesting that way. I hope that there's still some of that trademark humour.

                            its rather short( no pun intended). took me about 6 hours to finish, though i didnt unlock everything, but after seeing 2 of the endings, i just kinda got tired of playing it.

                            There are hacks out there to get full nudity.

                            This game was also banned in australia. Go figure.
