Full Throttle Remastered - No Commentary

Nearly 5 years ago, I published a video of me playing through LucasArts point and click game, Full Throttle. It has since become my most popular video, thanks mostly to a link in an article on Rock, Paper, Shotgun (thanks guys!).
Today, I give you the successor to that video: My playthrough of Full Throttle Remastered.
22 years in the making, FTR features better graphics, remastered audio, improved controls (apparently, they didn't seem any different to me) and developer commentary. I also threw in a few extra bits of gameplay at the end of the video this time, due to actually being able to edit videos properly now. Enjoy!

[@SyoShinozaki]

The introduction was so impressive when it was released decades ago. Such cinematic opening was never before seen in a video game... a masterpiece.

[@Meteotrance]

Your so right, i was deeply impress by what lucas art team was able to achieved in this game.

[@SwiftSmashGamingZone]

& Ben is basically 'god-tier'! I'd be thrilled to witness a live-action adaptation of this, provided they do it justice!

[@lkt153]

While I agree the opening is impressive and was very uncommon at the time. Another World/Out of this World had already done something along those lines several years before. Just in a smaller scale. If you've never seen it, you should look it up, it's good!

[@XxDjinn420xX]

Still is impressive, even more so when you remember what technology they had to work with back then!

[@tmbennettart]

I adored this game. I actually racked up a serious phone bill calling a "tips and tricks" hotline. My mom was PISSED! I also used every single one of the 100 save slots, essentially chronologically flagging the entire game, including its various alternative scenes. What a dork.

[@sfcd4757]

thats hilarious though

[@boobiedefloop6097]

Yeap pretty lame

[@6mtzhp55]

Meticulous saving, note-taking and mapping was a big part of 80s and 90s games. And those tip lines were designed for exactly how you used it. Don't feel bad about having the full experience to reminisce back on.

[@TammyRadbody]

The big issues I had with the puzzles was the hiding behind the tank to steal the gas from the hover bike.

[@adamalim1387]

@@TammyRadbody that one got me stuck for a long time. Same with unhooking the ramp in the Cavefish hideout to remove the reflectors. I kept trying to leave that cave and they would catch me every time.

It's crazy that I'm 37 years old and still think about this game. It's just perfect. From the soundtrack, which reminds me of the music from "Vampires" by John Carpenter, to the desert scenery, the game is a masterpiece.

[@Allstin]

Raptormon OneThreeTwo someone made a “movie” of part of it, not the whole thing though. I didn’t realize there was a remastered version!

[@meow_bastard]

No. Hollywood fucks everything up

[@BucklingSwashes]

Just tweeted to Tim about it, as I've had the same thought for years. I think as long as he's still involved, we're golden. Curious about who currently owns the rights to the game. My thought: put Mark Hamill in the role of Malcolm Corley. It'd be a fun twist to the original casting, and I think it could be a ton of fun to see him as that character. Then, put John Goodman in as Ripburger. He has a unique way of playing slimey characters with a warm, disarming flourish that I think could make his friendship with Corley more believable and his betrayal even worse. The rest of the cast is harder. No idea who to start with for Ben. Maureen is even more important, I think. I'd be ecstatic if we could get Emily Blunt or someone similar.

[@thiagowwz]

I've came by to comment the same thing, I'd love to watch a movie of this game. The game marked my childhood. I love its story!

[@enshk79]

BucklingSwashes Emily blunt? LOL. GTFO. just enjoy Full Throttle the adventure game. It’s basically an animated movie.

My buddy Rick got me into this one years ago. It was my introduction to the Gone Jackals... Damn what a group!!

[@CrazedNinja]

My dad used to be a manager at Tower Records, which also sold video games in the last decade or so before it went out of business. He would often bring games home, and this was one of 'em. I was no older than 9 at the time, though I may have been as young as 7. Either way, I wasn't too bright. The first time I played it, I skipped the intro, and so I didn't know why I was staring at a dumpster, or why it was the only thing I could click. Since clicking the dumpster caused something to hit it, and the CD-ROM also had a demo of Dark Forces on it, I assumed this game was also a shooter. And since the only thing the arrow keys moved was the cursor, my 7-year-old self managed to get stuck at the very first screen of the game. For weeks, possibly months. And then, imagine my surprise when one day I aimed just a little higher and clicked THE LID of the dumpster. In that moment, I felt something I had only felt once before: at birth, after 9 months of thinking there was no world beyond the womb.
