Leisure Suit Larry Revival This Summer

Replay Games announces plans to revive Leisure Suit Larry, and bring the adventures of lovelorn Larry Laffer "to a whole new generation of netbooks, tablets and mobile devices," beginning with a release this summer on Intel's Appup.com marketplace. This remake will include contributions from Al Lowe, who originated the series, though he was not involved in either of the previous two installments, the most recent of which was Leisure Suit Larry: Box Office Bust, released in March 2009. There are some screenshots on Flickr, and here is Al Lowe's take on the plan:

From his palatial penthouse apartment, high above the teeming streets of Lost Wages, Al Lowe offered these insights into Larry's success and return to the big leagues: "It's no fun telling people who want to play your games that their only recourse is to pirate them. Finally, Larry leaves his digital dungeon to delight those too young (or too smart) to play it way back when." Al expects a whole new generation of gamers to relate to a guy who's so out of touch he thinks a leisure suit is hip. "Men love the games because no matter how much of a loser they are, they're not as big a loser as Larry. And women love the games because, well, they've all dated a jerk like Larry."
