Full Throttle

This is somewhat funny comic adventure. The problem is however, that it's very easy and linear to play. It is basically set into 4 different episodes (your inventory gets lost in each episode), but it lacks the depth. There isn't really anything to do except to solve those linear (easy) problems, and then it's all over. And the ending is quite disappointment for a Lucasarts adventure. But hey, if you like heavymetal, go and get it.

Although not my absolute favorite LucasArts game (that has to go to Sam and Max/Monkey Island) this is a winner too. The artwork is outstanding. So is the music. And your main biker character is just plain fun to walk around as he continually embarasses himself. Only complaint: I wish the game lasted longer.

Perfect Game! Fun to play and a killer soundtrack by the Gone Jackals. I went right out and bought it. The voices were done well except for Maurice. It was funny, and had a lot of action too. The ending is still fun to play over and over.

Despite being a fairly unchallenging point-and-click adventure Full Throttle still remains one of Lucas Arts' most inspired games of the last ten years. Easily one of the funniest games they've ever produced, the story is set in a not-to-distant future, one where wheels are in danger of being obsolete. One such company, Corley Motors, specialise in only making wheeled vehicles, specifically motorbikes. But their over-zealous vice-president wants to change all that by hatching a plan to kill it's owner. You play Ben, the leader of The Polecats, a motorcycle gang, caught in the middle of this murder story. You must find out what dastardly plan Adrian Ripburger (The VP voiced by Mark Hamill) has hatched for Corley Motors.

There are some wonderful set-pieces, the best one involving a platoon of motorised bunnies hopping off into a minefield. If you have an adaptable computer it's still largely worth a play. It has a great soundtrack and an involving storyline.

Great game, but it's way too easy. The characters and the story are really cool, the music is perfect, and it has some excellent cutscenes. It's genuinely fun to play, except that the puzzles are way to simple. They don't require the usual amount of thinking that you'd expect from a LucasArts adventure game. But all in all, it's well worth playing.
