It's the Original

These are the original games complete with the lowest possible resolution and frequent insults. I had forgotten how annoying it was to sign it by answering age sensitive questions and digging something out of the manual (which is now 57 pages you must print out). That annoyance remains. It's a great glimpse into the past and the jokes (insults) are as funny as ever.

Good but could be better.

I liked the compilation games. However, it didnt contain the last game in the series 'Liesure suit Larry 7: Love for Sail". In my opinion the best in the series. Why make a compilation redo it in windows xp and not include the whole series?

cheaper than ultimate pleasure pack

Leisure Suit Larry Compilation was Great

I absolutely loved the Leisure Suit Larry compilation cd for XP. Once installed, you don't need the cd in your cd-rom drive, and you can launch every game from your desktop launcher.

The compilation cd has VMD sound and Dos Box built right in so all the games played well on my XP. Having played, and loved, this series in the late 80's and early 90's, I was thrilled to re-live them again. Even the first few which are really outdated and pixelated, were fun. Amazingly, so many memories came flooding back as I played these games.

The major drawback, however, is that many of these games are password protected, and you have to have the manual for each game to find specific passwords, etc. The compilation does come with a .pdf of the manuals, but it is difficult to scroll through, hard to read, and a bit frustrating.

I ended up going to various walkthroughs to help with some of the password issues. That annoyance put aside, I found that the retro Leisure Suit Larry's still held up in the 21st Century. They are still fun and funny with much tongue-in-cheek humor; and, actually for mature players only.

If you played any of the old Sierra games as I did, I would recommend any and all of the compilations cds for XP. I bought Leisure Suit Larry, King's Quest, Space Quest and Police Quest and had a ball playing them all.

A great re-release.

These games are some of the funnest games of time. Great stories and hillarious plots.

Don't listen to what people say about the quality, I think they did a great job, even if they are missing the original LSLITLOTLW its not really missed because the remake is much better.

They didn't release the 7th game or the Magna Cum Laude because they weren't very good.

Now you do have to print out the manual, but its worth it and if you like Adult pc games, or are an adventure gamer, you must get this great compilation of games for a great price of 20 bucks.

Excellent Series

If you have never played a Leisure Suit Larry game (Magna Cum Laude does NOT count), then you owe it to yourself to pick up this collection. It includes LSL 1,2,3,5,6 all for a good price. However, it does not include the CD version of LSL 6, so you'll have to enjoy the game without any voices. It's about time these were re-released. Check them out!

Nothing Like Larry

Right up there with the best. (Be warned however, the newest larry really sucks)But this series was great as were almost all the old sierra games. How times have changed...

Ok, but I guess I expected more.

For fans of the original 5 (1, 2, 3, 5 & 6) Leisure Suit Larry games, this is great since you can now play them on XP. I do however have a few complaints about this game. 1 is that you don't get a printed manual with this game, just an electronic version that you either have the print out or bring up to be able to play the game. You also don't get a CD case, just a white sleeve. Also, I know that these are old games and don't have the best graphics, but to me the graphics are worse than they were originally, maybe I need to change the settings on my PC, but some things are so bad you can't even identify them.
Overall it is good for the long time LSL fans, but if you are new to LSL, you may want to stick to the newer games in the series.

I love the game and played it when I had Windows 98. I had only got to play the first one tho. I am having problems playing this game as far as it shows me I have 89.00 in my wallet, but when I go to pay the cab driver it doesn't show any cash in the wallet. I have Windows ME with 256 memory and I don't know if Windows ME is my problem or not. I know I enjoy these games but they don't work properly on my system for some reason. It gets quite frustrating. Once I figure out how to fix the problem I'm sure I will really spend alot of time playing. I love the things you have to figure out and pick up like in the first game, buying wine to give to the wine-o, and make sure you have plenty of condoms because Larry believes in safe sex. Plus the interesting people you talk to. If you have any info on how to fix this problem so I can enjoy playing the games again please contact me. These are wonderful games to play and keep me amused, not like casino games. This is alot of fun!!!!!! Keep them coming.

I knew before buying that this was not the complete set of Laffer products, but I had thought that it was the full set of adventure games. Sorry to say, it does not. It only has Larry 1,2,3,5,6 but no Larry 7. (Larry 4 also could not be included, because the Department of Homeland Security burned all copies and launched the source code into outer space- so that is hardly Vivendi's problem)

Also the copy protection should have been removed. This arcane annoying relic of ages past of looking up answers in the documentation is made more annoying by having poor quality PDF of all the documentation online, and it is difficult to get through.
