- Today I'm reviewing a classic graphic adventure game by LucasArts that deals with motorcycles, mechanics and murder. It's Full Throttle! I've teamed up with the Adventure Game Geek to give you two opinions for the price of one. We played the recent remastered version of the game, though do compare to the original.

Thanks for having me on Pam! Always a pleasure talking about adventure games (even if I did spend half the time rabbiting on about bunnies!)
No problem! You did really like those bunnies.
Cannot be Tamed played this game on a emulator in 2018 a lot of fun to play 🙂
I made so many legos inspired by Full Throttle. I built Ben's bike, hover cars, the saloon and dumpster, the gas tower... it was a big part of my childhood. I was so excited when the remaster was released.
The soundtrack for this game is really cool. They could have done a movie based on this game
Ben (reads) "Todd's Junkyard".
Ben: "OPEN UP, TODD!"
Ben: "Oh yeah, I knocked him out..."
Man, so many great memories with this game, even though it could've done some things better. This and The Dig are probably my two favorite adventure games of all time.
I love The Dig!
"Do you know what might look better on your nose?"
"THE BAR!!!"
Most underrated Lucas Arts adventure.
Full Throttle Remastered DRM free is 75% off @GoG.com right now.
"I'm NOT puttin' my lips on that!"
Oh man! I was wondering if you would ever do this in 2020 and here we are!
I recently got this on a psn sale. I haven’t played it since it came out in the mid-90s. I’m having a blast, I forgot how great it is! I want this game to be an animated series.
It would make a good series
Cannot be Tamed agreed 😜
The best LucasArts adventures are the zany & bizarre ones like Day of the Tentacles, Sam & Max Hit the Road, Grim Fandango, and the Monkey Island games. All the rest are pretty pedestrian -- still enjoyable, but not special. One good thing is that these "Special Editions" have the right balance of upgrading the graphics while still retaining the original graphical flavor.
Great video, and thanks for putting Adventure Game Geek on my radar too.
I'm fascinated by so many adventure games since I don't have the patience for them personally, and didn't grow up playing them - I just remember seeing them covered in PCGamer and whatnot so often back in the day, and so many looked cartoony or dark or bizarre. I'm always looking for TH-camrs that cover those classic point-n-clicks :)
Well, I'm glad to introduce you to a new one!
This review misses pointing out that this is post-apacolyptic and has the single, greatest post-apacolyptic country song of ALL time that plays on the radios that you happen to wander past. It fits the game thematic perfectly. Dark yet funny as heck.
My momma's face has dipoed down into the dirt. But I'm still chasing... Chitlins, whiskey, and skirt.
One of my top 5 point and click games
thx for the reviw, its making me wanna play tis game now, have it on my hdd for ages but never started it yet.
please keep going to make reviews.
cheers
I've heard so much about this game over the past year, so I started playing it on Gamepass. I like the animation, jokes, and references so far. Thanks for the review.
I made a Ben character in City of Heroes. I could summon a biker gang and had many of the skills shown in Full Throttle. I really miss CoH. The Korean publisher shut down the MMORPG instead of selling or lcensing it, despite AT LEAST 3 groups trying to buy the game in the USA, as it had a huge subscriber base in the US and Europe and was very active. Unfortunately, it did not do as well in Asia, so NCSoft stupidly killed everything. What added insult to injujury was that at interviews after the fact, an NCSoft spokesman claimed that they had considered selling the franchise, but no one was interested, so they just shut it down.
I found an original PC copy of FT at a 2nd hand shop for 25cents a year ago. Sweet deal. Lucas Arts adventure games were my favorite. Sam and Max, Monkey Island Indian Jones, and even The Dig. I think growing up during the Lucas Arts golden years helped me develop abstract problem solving skills, which I still use frequently. Love your channel. Subbed
i was glad when i got this game as a youngster, i remember i had to use the strategy guide a lot, i was never that good at the strange logic in some adventure games, this vid took me back good job
I had a lot of good times with this, when I played it on my 486 computer back in the 90's.
Awesome! My AdventureGameGeek together with Cannot be Tamed. I'm so proud of him. Both of you did a great job. ❤💙
Thanks!
Loved this game when it came out. The remastered version has very successfully transferred the graphics, which are still excellent.
Loved this game as a kid. I remember sneaking on to my dad's computer and playing leisure suit larry, then this game. Point and clicks will always have a special place for me even if they are for the most part long gone.
There are still some good ones around. Check out anything by Wadjet Eye if you're looking for some good, newer point and clicks.
Somehow I managed to figure out on my own when I was like 6 without a guide that you were supposed to hide in the shadow from police at tye gas tower (as well as the rest of the puzzles in that area).
This game was like really amazing for 1995
Awesome video you guys put together on Full Throttle Remastered for PC and definitely played it’s more than once because I found that gameplay and story was really interesting and great.
Thanks!
I had very nostalgia-tinted glasses when I played the remaster, but I found the keyboard/mouse controls for the motorcycle fights to be impossible and switched to a controller. I'm pretty sure I'd blocked out any memory of the demolition derby too. Woof. I still enjoyed it, but those two more action-oriented sequences didn't work very well. We might find Telltale's games a bit formulaic now, but games like this serve as good reminders of how hard it is to incorporate action into a point-and-click adventure game. Keep up the good work!
It is really difficult to incorporate action. Like, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade had fist fights which the controls were okay for but I found really difficult.
Such a cool review, I almost want to check out the game! 😄
Hey, the mechanic's name is actually Maureen.
Loving the page/channel and with this brain blister a good one !More stuff like that .
Thanks!
While it might not be the BEST LucasArts point'n'click it is by far my favorite of the lot, i have many nostalgic hours of picking this up in a pack of LA games and playing this. I can't remember if I actually beat this game back then, but I have certainly beaten the remaster many times. BEN, don't leaver Marlene. Just retire or something! :-P Well, in my mind the roads go both ways so he can always visit. And start building up members for a new biker gang, if you know what I mean. ;-) Sigh, I am a sucker for happy endings and this one is a bit bitter sweet so I make my own epilogue. Sue me! :-D Anyway, one of the better remakes I agree Pam. I didn't have that much of an issue with the Mokey Island remake though, I THINK they went for a look more aking to MI3. Maybe?
I didn't love the art for the Monkey Island remake, but they put in the option to keep the pixel graphics, so I was cool with it.
great video!
I have been working on a video for like a week.
Sorry for not commenting sooner :)
Left a like :D
Thanks!
Hi! Im Tom and Im here to watch you talk about retro video games
Hi Tom!
I was never a Fan of this Game, but i think it's not fair since i never really played it. But Combat, Mini Games... it was not my Type of Point and Click. Kinda cool to play "a brute" for those Games
Aaaaah.... Memories...
.... I'm old.
Me too.
Cannot be Tamed correction, you're awesome! 😋😊😉
Quand je suis sur la route, je suis indestructible.
Personne ne peut m'arrêter.
Mais, ils essayent quand même...
Did u ever play the second parasite eve? And if so did you like it as much as the first?
No, never played that one
I was disappointed with this remastered game like as with the Monkey Island 1-2 and Grim Fandango remastered, too. :'(
Amazing 😄. They were not retro in my time
Yep... games become retro when they’re older.
Keep making videos, there great.
Thanks!

When you come across a minigame in a Lucasarts adventure, skip them. Every time. You‘lll miss out on nothing. Nothing but a whole lot of frustration.
I didn't know skipping was an option.
Cannot be Tamed Skipping is always an option. Teehee. Yeah, you can do that with most Lucasarts games, and when replaying the games in the past years I was glad for that option. Most minigames in their adventures are pretty much a puzzle themselves, if you don‘t know exactly what to do, they‘re just a nag.
Anyone ever play the knife side game with that guy at the bar?
I was not good at it.
What's wrong? Leeead diapers?
my God! I didnt know the double click trick :p Full Throtle = not worth it. such a stupid end after hours of being annoyed all this kinda stuff you really cannot figure out. The game is a real gamer teaser
I really liked the ending.
I thought it could be a little more spicy...
Again, I beg of you, as I did last time you reviewed a LucasArts game, REVIEW SAM & MAX HIT THE ROAD!! I'll even send you my fucking copy, if you still have a CD ROM player! (I don't, so it is of little use to me at this point.) Actually, my favorite part of that game was the instruction book because it introduced me to Steve Purcell's Sam & Max comics and got me to buy the "Surfin' the Highway trade paperback. Before Sam & Max I didn't even know what Stuckey's was! My life was a hollow lie.
I don't think Hit the Road has been put on GOG or Steam or anything has it? I don't really have any interest in making old games run on new computers. :(
Wait, it is on GoG. I'll review it sometime.
It seems that u play mostly on PC then PS/Xbox.. Why u never talk about Nintendo besides NES/SNES?.. It is just weird that a channel focused on retro video games has almost no Nintendo content.. Did u play N64, GC or Wii? Or u did not cuz nintendo doesn't know how make proper controllers according to u... Nintendo is the most important company of video games to date.. They saved video games from been forgotten in the 80'.
More than half of my retro videos are about Nintendo games. So... not really sure of the point of this comment.
😇🍿🎞
Oh My God, you're so cute. Anyway good review XD.
