Short, yet satisfying
I missed out on 'Full Throttle' when it first came out, so to be able to play it now is a treat. 'Full Throttle Remastered' is a straightforward, no nonsense, linear adventure starring Ben, the leader of a biker gang. He and his gang were framed for the murder, and he had to go clear their name and seek vengeance. The puzzles in 'Full Throttle Remastered' were not particularly hard. New to the game, I finished the first half in about 2 hours because the solutions to puzzles were quite grounded and practical (i.e. nothing that requires moon logic or outlandish combinations of actions and objects). The second half was comparatively more outlandish puzzle-wise, and featured more action mini-games. While the mini-games fit the theme of 'Full Throttle', they did feel out of place in what seemingly a traditional point-and-click adventure game. The remastered graphics in 'Full Throttle Remastered' were very well done, adding crisp lines to the beautifully designed and drawn characters and locations. Although I am a fan of the remastered graphics in ‘Day of the Tentacle Remastered’ and ‘Grim Fandango Remastered’, I have mixed feelings about the new art in 'Full Throttle Remastered'. For more elaborate and expanded locales, like the penultimate setting in the game, the remastered graphics were an asset. However, for cutscenes and close-ups, the remastered graphics actually stripped away the grittiness of the original pixel art that befitted the game’s tone and style. This just goes to show how well the original art holds up over two decades later. Double Fine’s remastering work was not for naught though. 'Full Throttle Remastered' benefitted most from the remastered audio. The remastered music and dialogue sounded clean and sharp, and the sound of the motorcycles racing down the freeway was blaringly aggressive. Thankfully, one can choose to play this game with the original graphics, paired with remastered music and sounds, to achieve what I deem to be the best way to (re)experience this game. I completed 'Full Throttle Remastered' in about three hours with some help from a walkthrough for the second half of the game. If I did not get help, I would have clocked in four or five hours of game time in total. Given that, 'Full Throttle', as some reviewers had already pointed out, is not a long game. Considering how linear the game is compared to its LucasArts peers, it is hard not to feel something was missing in 'Full Throttle' – perhaps a couple of scenes or a few more puzzles. While I appreciated the lack of frills in the core game, part of me wished Ben’s adventure could have been a bit longer. Have no previous sentimental attachment to or nostalgia about the game, I feel 'Full Throttle Remastered' at its regular full price is not a good value. I paid just under $10 for the game during a sale, and felt I got a decent value for such a short, yet entertaining game. Those with a stronger sense of nostalgia about 'Full Throttle' may be willing to pay more. However, if you are like I, you may want to get this game when it is discounted.
