"Every man has to settle down eventually. You know why you gotta settle down eventually? Because you don't want to be the old guy in the club."

- Chris Rock, "Bring The Pain"

The Al Lowe-headed rebirth of Leisure Suit Larry has hit its funding goal of $500K, with a week of "stretch" funding to spare that will lead to expanded content and increased localization/porting. With Telltale working on King's Quest, Jane Jensen doing Pinkerton, and the Two Guys From Andromeda about to make the leap, it looks like Sierra is back in business... despite those pesky 15 years of dormancy.

If you want to help Larry's quest for a bigger game (or simply place a "Kickstarter pre-order"), go nuts:

I'm still keeping a shoebox of money in an old tree stump on the off chance that Spellcasting 401 or Star Control 4 get launched, though. A $2000 bid to be in the background art of Meltingwolf Hall? SOLD!
