Bow down before the master of suck!

Like just about every other nerd out there, I can say that I loved the Leisure Suit Larry games when I was younger. From the early "dad, what's a profylactic" stage, to the "hihi, my hormones are really racing, and I understand the sexual analagy here" phase, it was great fun.

So, not surprisingly, I decided to try out the latest, LSL, Magna cum laude, and all I can say is, bow down before the new master of all things that suck! If there is a holy mountain of suck, where things that suck come to worship and pay homage to the grand master, that grand master is the latest LSL! It defies physics, by both sucking and blowing at the same time!

I just don't get it. The game is just sooo explicit, that there's no point left. Gone is all the fun "thick trunk between my legs" humour, the tounge-in-cheek, the brilliance, the gameplay, and we're left with "fuck me harder Twiggy!", monkeys masturbating, pictures of naked chicks, and gameplay consisting of side scrolling sperms, and "press the X button now" series of games, suitible for the retarded.

Now, don't get me wrong, I'm in no way easily offended, and I'm not swinging any kind of PC-bat here, and I enjoy nudity as much (probably more) than the next guy, but this is just utter crap. That the game got 8.1 in user reviews over on gamespot just totally baffles me.

And who the hell is the intended audience? Ok, perhaps, 15-year old, just into puberty, giggle, giggle, look what I just downloaded kids, but seriously? I recommend downloading porn instead, and perhaps a Colin Farell interview, if you're into profanity.

When at the Roskilde Festival, I always think it's funny to throw out the comment "it looks like they're out of poo in Roskilde" when the trucks come to take away the camp's crap, but I now realize that it's not Roskilde town, but instead High Voltage Software that have been collecting out shit for the last five years, and this is what they've managed to produce.
