To Space… And Beyond! Or However That Saying Goes…
It’s a good time to be an “Old School” Sierra Fan. It started with Al Lowe and Josh Mandel working on a Kickstart campaign to get a retooled Leisure Suit Larry 1. Then, Jane Jensen of Gabriel Knight fame (who has, by the way put out a new game entitled GRAY MATTER – check it out – NOW!), announced she would be launching her own company called Pinkerton Road where she would work on new games; and we all hoped, perhaps, if the company does well, barter with Activision (who holds the rights to Gabriel Knight)… But even if that doesn’t happen, Gray Matter is amazing, and a sequel would be a VERY welcomed process (especially entirely up to Jane’s commands, with no other company breathing down her neck!). Life can’t get any better right?
Wrong.
As it turns out, in space… no one can hear you scream in fits of JOY!
That’s right! The Two Guys From Andromeda are back together! While they may not be working on a new Space Quest game, they are working on a new Space-venture game!
Check out their new site:
The Beautiful Ladies of Leisure Suit Larry VII! (And Peggy too!)
Some Leisure Suit Larry. And Some Pink. It DOES Sound Dirty, Doesn’t It?

That’s right! Al Lowe is working with Replay Games to helm the return – well, the revisiting! – of LEISURE SUIT LARRY: LAND OF THE LOUNGE LIZARDS… RELOADED! This isn’t a hoax. This isn’t an April Fools. This is real. Al Lowe. Leisure Suit Larry. Teaming up ONCE AGAIN! But they need YOUR HELP! Leisure Suit Larry on Kickstarter!

Here’s a word from Al Lowe:
And let’s not forget ANOTHER Sierra Legend – Jane Jensen (Gabriel Knight creator!) has her own Kickstarter and project going that could also use your support!
For starters, a new studio by Jane Jensen and her husband, and music composer, Robert Holmes entitled Pinkerton Road. After you check out the site and see concept art for Moebius, Anglophile Adventure and most importantly Gray Matter 2 you can stop by Jane’s Kickstarter Site and donate if you can! (For the kids, there’s also a Lola & Lucy’s Big Adventure! for more about that e-book!
If you’re reading this and you’re not sure who Jane Jensen or Robert Holmes are – well, first you’re probably on the wrong internet page, and may want to hit BACK on your browser. But in case you don’t know WHO they are but now you WANT to know – well, here – let me grab it from their About Page:
