As Al said in the video, they have (a) earn Codemasters trust to develop new software for the license, and (b)They need to get the funding to develop a new game. LSL 7 cost 1.7 million dollars – and that was in 1997! Also, this isn’t just a remake. Al Lowe said in an interview with the web show ‘Game On!’ that they literally have to start from scratch; Sierra’s archive was “flushed” – it’s gone. literally. So this will be fresh animation. fresh backgrounds, all new ink & paint, fresh music(well, except for the classic theme!). They literally are starting with the bones; and that’s it.

If this remake is a success, there will be more Larry-games. Replay Games are also trying to get rights for the other Quest-games, and Scott Murphy has said that he wants to join as well, if that is the case.

Support the old Sierra-team!

I was pretty happy with the Leisure Suit Larry VGA redo. I mean, how many times can you remake a point and click adventure game?

If Corey and Lori Ann Cole remade the Quest for Glory series for PC/iPad I would donate a hundred a month, just to get those games working for the new age and bug free, best Action/Adventure games ever. That Sierra-Online as a wasteland was pretty true, and it’s pretty sad, all those old teams for Leisure Suit Larry, QFG, Kings Quest, Police Quest, Space Quest. They were all pretty awesome in their own way.

QFG even had previous game character importing 18 years before Mass Effect.
And you could become a completely new class that was only available to those that imported. The awesome paladin, your sword would catch fire when you unsheathed it, so cool.
