Full Throttle Remastered - Full Intro Video

[@cmdugan]

Nothing beats 90’s LucasArts. Innovation, humor and great storytelling.

[@magnuskallas]

And then Disney took over, as it is hinted here.

[@user-ui7iy4vk1e]

The epoch itself did play its role. The internet wasn't everyplace at that time...still.

[@nickblomgren]

When I was a kid, I'd always get excited when I heard the first guitar riff when the bikers drive over the car. I never heard that song prior to playing the remaster last night that wasn't muddled at whatever archaic bitrate was in the original game.

I don't care for the remastered one. The look is off. Part of the visual charm of the original release is lost.

Both are awesome intros - but to me, the one that holds up best even by today's standards (For a game released in 1998) is Freespace 1's intro.

They don't make epic games like this anymore. Man, seeing the gang closing in in the horizon gets me goosebumps together with the awesome music! Hamills voice as Rip' is so menacing

[@LeandroGrimsborken]

Pure gold, a outstanding game even to this days 😊

[@solangecossette1374]

Back when the game was released, most music for videogames was composed / played on a soundcard in midi format, or had short pre-recorded music on an audio cd. Only really recent games were exploring ways to play music back as compressed (ala mp3) allowing for so much more songs and variety. Then right in the intro, the game pulles no punches and kicks off with the Gone Jackals - a rockband whom also had roots in biker culture. It was a no contest that Full Throttle picked up "Best Music" for games released in 1995.

[@timnevinger5056]

I played this and other DOS games everyday as a kid. It always blew my mind all the hype of nintendo etc. I would be hearing about sonic thevhedgehog and mario etc. Hahahahaha. Very few of the other kids would listen. The ones who did were happy though!

[@bizznick444joe7]

This is a deeper plot than most movies

[@jhonnybravo3142]

That was my first game on my own pc, 97 year, i was 12😂,even non remaster version is smooth to play now ,30 years after release. This waht we call "all time classic"

The best Lucas Arts P&C adventure.

[@Balrog25]

Best cinema intro to a game ever!

[@edorn9972]

The world built for this game is amazing- rural america (almost post apocalyptic), crazy gangs cave fish in particular used to facinated me when I played as a kid..a gang of insane freaks worshipping a stunt bike driver..amazing, old man Corley and his wild past. Was really sad when the sequal was canceled, but hey, I'm fine with FT being a single title, a cult classic.

[@Fuchsia_tude]

Yeah, well the original voice actor died... do you blame them?

[@edorn9972]

Had no idea that was the reason, sad..I think it was the first game I played with such high quality production values, 10/10 voice acting.

When I saw tales from the crypt demon knight in 95 when it came out on vhs I distinctly remember liking it because I thought william sadlers character had the exact same outfit as Ben Throttle, which oddly enough released only months apart from each other

[@Nazbaque]

There is a lot to recommend this game for, but for me it's yet another example of Mark Hamill being an awesome bad guy. Seriously, it's like the man's career could be summarized as "Luke Skywalker chose the Dark Side"

Free on GOG right now but worth every penny it normally costs...and then some.

Love this game. But the inconsistency in the intro hurts my OCD. There is Ben plus 4 pole cats bikers after jumping the car, then Ben and 5 pole cats (another one randomly appeared from somewhere) when the camera zooms through them to catch up. And later 5 pole cats at the Bar with been. But why only 4 seen behind the limo as they approach????? 😅

Also one of the pole cats is floating after they pass the limo lol Oh well I don't care

[@lassihietala8465]

I really hate what they did with the "remixed/remastered" Gone Jackals stuff. Why make it more "modern" sounding when it's perfectly fine and hifi on the original CD release? The new drum sound sucks compared to the original. Totally awesome remaster of the game, though.

[@camdenstoddard7943]

I am very glad you are liking the remaster overall! However, I am sorry to hear you are not liking the drum sound. Honestly the Gone Jackals music mix is the least modern thing we did to the sound. What you are hearing is the original tracks from the analog tapes, only in their original stereo. They are 44khz/16bit files in the remaster as opposed to 22khz/8bit. Our goal was only to reveal those tracks original untouched, uncompressed sound. I also am a rabid fan of this game. It's sound is what got me started in game audio and eventually Audio Director at Double Fine. I take your critique very seriously and appreciate your honesty.

[@lassihietala8465]

Never expected to receive a comment from an actual developer. Wow! So the Gone Jackals stuff actually isn't remixed, but only has higher fidelity when compared to the original game? When I started my playthrough of the remaster, I was almost sure that the original drums were replaced/"enhanced" with samples and the whole mix had a very "modernized" flavor... Maybe it's just that I've got mud in my ears and/or the compression in the original version made a drastic difference. I just made a comparison and the drums on the original CD version sound more aggressive; the snare sounds a bit wider and the cymbals seem more prominent. The whole drum sound is nicely noisy and distorted. The remaster is more clean and the kick drum seems to be louder, resulting in a more "focused" but less "exploding" overall sound. At least this is what I hear... not trying to imply that my opinion is better than anyone else's. I apologize for coming off a little rude in my previous comment, I really appreciate all the effort that was put into this great remaster.

[@lassihietala8465]

Oh, and I compared the remaster to the actual Gone Jackals CD version. The original Full Throttle game obviously had a very lo-fi sound quality on the Gone Jackals stuff... I don't miss the horribly tinny sound quality of the 1995 game, but I do prefer the awesomely raw original mix itself. Seems that the bass guitar is also more audible and gloriously gnarly on the original. Here's a link (of course it has some KZbin compression): kzbin.info/www/bejne/aIC8ZqaLfN2qm68
