• Summary: The Leisure Suit Larry: Box Office Bust video game gives gamers an all-access pass to the glitz, glamour and gorgeous women of Tinseltown. In this 3rd person adventure game, Larry takes a summer job working on his uncle Larry’s movie lot doing odd jobs and trying to uncover a mole from another studio who threatens to air the studio's dirty laundry in the tabloids. Leisure Suit Larry: Box Office Bust is a rollicking, innuendo-laden lampoon of Hollywood that features open world sand box game play that includes exploration, platforming, racing and puzzle-solving to complete missions. Additionally, the game features an all-new Directors Game that allows the player to create their very own "Larry Feature." True to form, Leisure Suit Larry Box Office Bust features sophomoric comedy and bombshell babes thanks to the writing talents of Allen Covert and an All-Star cast of actors and actresses, including Jay Mohr, Dave Attell, Shannon Elizabeth, Carmen Elektra, Patrick Warburton, Jeffrey Tambor, Nikki Cox, Peter Graves, Jane Lynch and Josh Keaton as the voice of Larry Loveage.

  1. Leisure Suit Larry: Box Office Bust fails reproducing the original spirit of Leisure Suit series. It fails from a technological and artistic point of view too, with tasteless humor and poor graphic. Variety is the only good aspect of the game, with some good sets and a high number of minigames, but it isn't enough to make it a good game.
  2. This Box Office Bust is a sample of how to change what worked completely for the worse.
  3. Not only does it take away from what the original games did so well, it fails to execute even the simplest of gameplay necessities. The platform jumping is horrendous, the combat mechanics are atrocious and sitting through some of the dialogue is just plain painful.

    Better than Cum Lauda. Graphics lovely, story interesting, music good and girls look excellent. The game play sucks at times.

    I was very saddened by this game. Not that it was awful; I have seen games much, much worse than this. The whole game just feels "rough". While the comedy exists it's inconsistent. Truly funny bits that will have you on the floor in tears are interspersed with cliches and low level humor. This manages to diminish the game's only advantage. Gameplay-wise the game is atrocious with it's weird camera and clunky controls. The bad controls can be a game-stopper on more than one occasions. At one instance you have to chain an unbelievable number of jumps and because the combo chaining in this game is non existent I suspect that many users will end the game there. If not there then it surely will happen at the point when you have to fight 9 guards and do some jump chaining afterwards. The graphics are quite mediocre. Despite the use of Unreal Tech the game doesn't push any boundaries, hell it does not even reach the norm. And even though the graphics are not taxing still the pop in is evident. The best thing in the game is the audio, with great voice talent but dull tunes. This game had tons of potential yet somehow it lost it on the way. Even the smaller pricetag does not justify such mediocrity. Expand
