LSL wasn't a "SoftPorn ripoff" as such -- it was definitely inspired by the
game, and in fact, the Leisure Suit Larry Collection Series (boxed set of
the first 6 games in all versions) INCLUDES the PC version of SoftPorn.
Al Lowe (the person behind the LSL series, originally a school teacher -
would you believe that!) has fully acknowledged that LSL was inspired by
SoftPorn.
