I was pretty psyched about a new LSL. But after playing for an hour, i realized that this game was no good. I have continued to play, but my list of annoyances continues to grow. First, the load times are too often. You must load for like 10 secs for every conversation with a character or to move to a new location. This amounts to a lot of time loading a little time playing. What time you do spent playing, you are mainly just walking to another conversation and to play the "conversation" game AGAIN. This brings me to the games. The games are a cute idea. I do like the conversation one a little, but it gets old. The other games, like quarters, are pretty poor attempts to use the "golf swing" movement from games like Links. But i find that consistency doesn't really matter, due to the way they've implemented it; it's almost the luck of the swing. I could be amazing at tiger wood golf, but still stink at quarters. Other games are like Dance Revolution, but that gets old. I guess my big problem with these games is that they try to bring something new to the adventure game world, but the rest of the game departs from good adventure games. What used to be fun about these games was the humor intertwined with the good puzzles. This game has some humor, but is completely mindless and has no puzzles. The only difficulty is getting money, but you just end up playing quarters a dozen more times to get it. This sucks the fun out of the games REAL fast. Overall, very dissapointing.
