    I can't help but feel this game must have been overrated even when it was originally released, let alone this remaster. Some of the gushing reviews are detached from reality. This is not a game worth playing even for historical curiosity.

Some of the gushing reviews are detached from reality. This is not a game worth playing even for historical curiosity.

    The story and puzzles aren't clever or satisfying, the UI is horrific and doesn't properly distinguish between interactable items, and not even the hotspot overlay helps. The shoehorning of a badly designed arcade combat system into a point 'n click was a terrible decision. The game is very short too, and that's including the pointless unfunny filler dialog and walking animations which are about 80% of the game.

    I was expecting a peer of Grim Fandango or Monkey Island, but this has proven to be disappointingly mediocre.    … Expand

    As much as I like point-n-click adventures and bike gang thematics, you can only guess how much I wanted to like Full Throttle, sadly this is not the case.

    From a gameplay standpoint, this game has aged like milk, it's impossible to play without a walkthrough, it is a frustratingly difficult game, and the cause for this doesn't lie withing the difficulty and cleverness of the puzzles themselves, but on ridiculousness and a lack of clear guidance by the game's storytelling and atmosphere, it's completely random.
    As far as the remaster goes, it also sucks, sure, the highlighted objects in this game look really well, but not only were the backgrounds left hardly touched at all, there is another problem with this, it unclarifies the meaning of things and backgrounds, interactable objects are unintelligible from background ones, which ties in with another reason why this remaster is so bad; no menus were enhanced, they tried to keep classic with the original action menu, which is unpractical and bothersome to use, and they did not include a "highlight objects" key, which only sums up to the confusion within this game.
    Some of the horrific problems this game suffers from is the presence of unwanted gameplay features (such as motorcycle combat) and time-limited sections, my man, why do I only have 4 seconds to notice the "cave" arrow when it's no different to the one that goes out to the highway, with the added inconvenience of losing 1 minute of your life staring at the screen waiting for the whole cycle to be drove-by again only to miss the cave once again, whoops!
    Overall, this is not a good game, it looks cool and has a good soundtrack, but I would not recommend buying this release to anyone, not because it's terribly bad (it's not nefarious, it's just bad), but because it's a true pain in the ass to play.    … Expand

    Удивительно переоцененный квест. Сама задумка про приключения тру-байкера шикарна, но на протяжении всей игры не покидает ощущение, что разработчики не знали, как развить эту байкерскую тему. Собственно, длина игры тому подтверждение. Почему не придумать больше интересных персонажей или проработать глубже имеющихся? Нет у нас имеется пара фраз на каждого и все.

    If you enjoy LucasArts' games, you should definitely play Full Throttle after so many years of not having the option to do so. If you haven't played their games but enjoy the genre in general, I'd still recommend it, as long as you're willing to accept occasional help from the internet when you can't find the right stupid rock to kick.

    Full Throttle game didn´t get old in the best way and its transformation into a modern form lacks the charm of the original. Luckily there is no pixel hunting, but regular gameplay along with boring minigames, knock the title from stardom to above average level. Remaster makes sense if you want to educate yourself in a game history, otherwise you will be more comfortable with a friendly nostalgia.

    A competent remaster that does not hurt with redesigned graphics and excites with polished sound. Above all, it offers excellent dabbing, especially of the main character helps this otherwise average adventure game to be forgotten. [Issue#275]
