An awesome entertaining game, especially compared to Box Office Bust.
User Rating: 8 | Leisure Suit Larry: Magna Cum Laude PS2
Woohoo! Larry is back and this time he is taking over your xbox with Magna Cum Laude. This time we have Larry who is enrolled in college and is trying to get on a popular tv show called Swingles. The host of the show Uma doesn't think that Larry is popular enough to be a contestant on the show, so she makes him prove that he is a hit with the ladies by bringing different items from women all around the city. This game is really entertaining, especially if you compare it to Box Office Bust. The controls are easy to learn, there are hardly ever problems with the camera, and the mini-games and storyline are entertaining as well. In this game, you have the ability to purchase lots of items that will help you throughout the game such as cheats, clothing accessories, and loading screen of behind the scenes artwork and real pictures of what the girls in the game look like in real life. The women in the game are interesting and the cutscenes are amusing, especially the ones that occur after you get the girls back to your dorm room. Those cutscenes are actually more funny then they are sexual. Something always goes wrong as soon as Larry gets them in the bedroom. Like one girl is a Italian mob boss's daughter, one is secretly a spy for the russian government, and one is even obsessed with the mascot (and no I'm not talking about the person underneath the costume). There really isn't much I can say that is bad about this game other then the fact that this is not recommended for the kiddies. This game has lots of language and full frontal nudity. The mini-games are fun as well. You can play quarters and get totally wasted and it affects you even after it is over. You can play pong, jump on a trampoline with DDR like controls, and even square dance (yes you saw it correctly, square dancing and pong in the same game). I personally loved this game. Compared to it's sequel, it was incredible. Although this game is rather difficult to find now, it is worth picking up and playing.
