Al Lowe has a really good sense of humor Space Quest 2 was the first game I actually sat down and finished. All the Space Quest games were great and when I got older I found the adult humor of Leisure Suit Larry to be just as good.

Wrong Sierra guy. Al Lowe had nothing to do with the Space Quest series.

Al Lowe was the God behind Leisure Suit Larry and he is an absolute genius.

Great interview.
Growing up with my Tandy computer with no HDD etc, the Sierra games we're pretty much my entire catalogue. Kings Quest III, Space Quest II we're my first games.
And we all had Leisure Suit Larry. CTRL ALT X to skip the questions if memory serves me correctly.
Thanks for the memories with the interview. Still have a soft spot when I see Sierra releasing a game.
Be nice if they managed to xbox live some of the classics, with an interface a bit updated for a control pad. (Unsure how they'd amend the text ones though).

Could set them all up as button based, i.e Monkey Island and the later LSL games (Hell the first LSL was updated in 95 with better graphics and an enhanced interface).
