Full Throttle Remastered

I didn't play this remaster, but about game can say that this is interesting quest. With good story, beautiful picture (fot that time), and harmonicaly twisted to the plot, not very difficult tasks.

My game had an annoying bug where random scenes would trigger commentary and couldn't be turned off. Didn't happen all the time though so still enjoyed. Maybe it could have been fixed by reinstalling the game but I didn't try to be honest. I like the way you can switch by pressing F1 to see the original old style graphics.

Good/ cool but sometimes frustrating as point and clicks are.

The game still holds up well today although rather on the short side and I just love the dystopian future biker theme. Now when it comes to the work of Double Fine I'm on the fence. On the one hand it's really cool to be able to switch between the languages in audio and subs and between the old and remastered graphics, on the other hand they only remastered less than half of the images, there's still a lot that just has some HD filter applied and nothing more which makes for a weird mix at times with the actual HD characters and vehicles. The biggest problem is, that they didn't add frames so the extremely low frame-rate scenes look even weirder in HD than they did back then when it was just due to hardware limitations. The first cut-scene had a major desync between video and audio but apart from that, it looked and played good. I have to do a double rating here: Actual game: 8/10 Remaster: 5/10

First of all, Full throttle is one of my all time favorites. It's a cinematic, well written and refreshingly well paced adventure with a very simple interface and mostly logical puzzles - most of which are designed to actually drive the plot onward. It's a "lite" adventure game, but a "grand" adventure itself. The gripes with the game is usually the length and the lame action minigames. Well, For me the length for this STORY is perfect. Instead of dragging it out, they decided to make it tight and compact. That is to be admired in my opinion. For those who mope about the action sequences: they're very easy and they ALL can be done in about 5 minutes if you know what you're doing. It's not even a waste of time, you're blowing it entirely out of proportion. The remaster however... could've gone better. First of all, it is kind of buggy: Some graphical glitches has been reported, the music and sound sometimes cuts out and at certain parts, seems to be out of sync with the picture, and - as it happened with a couple of other people as well - the and credit list was entirely missing in my playthrough. Furthermore, a couple of things which I was hoping for, but didn't get (these are more like missed opportunities): The whole of the soundtrack - the songs themselves aren't included. I bet it's a contractual problem, but still, it's too bad. Updated animation - when someone's whole head consists of three pixels, you can get away with more limited animation. Not so much here. The animation seemed to be almost Disney-like back than, now, the same amount of frames with better resolution is just a little choppy. Remade artwork - what we see here is practically the old artwork "traced" and "vectorized". Again, with the high definition, the lines look a bit bulky and digital. The BG's are nice, but they should've been painted more like actual paintings. That's what the of look suggested. Better 3d elements - in the old version they kinda popped off. Now, they really do.
