Feb 16, 2019My first legally purchased game... a masterpiece is defined by its capacity to endure the passing of the years, and this game certainly did.

May 11, 2012The first game I played when I got my first PC. It surely put me on a good "gaming path" after. Why? Because its one of the best adventure games. Try it out...

Aug 3, 2013Amazing game, one of the best in the genre's history. A must for fans of Adventure games and a recommendable title for newbies or anyone curios about older Tim Schaffer stuff.

Sep 19, 2013One of the games that formed my early gaming experience.
I love the old SCUMM games, and the sense of humor that the old Lucasarts crew put into them. -
Oct 30, 2013I will be short. It is a masterpiece. Must have for the collection. The interactive adventure which unfortunate happens on the braking point from 2D to 3D. So that the genre has not ever had an opportunity to get the sequel. Bravo for Lucas Art.

Jan 17, 2015A rock n' roll adventure and a revolution in video-game storytelling. Amazingly fun and dark still to THIS day. I played it like twenty already, and it's good as it goes.

DaveW.Sep 30, 2007I got this game when it first came out and I was about 14... I absolutely loved it then, and I probably played it through three or four times. I've just got my hands on another copy, and I was worried it might not have aged well. IT HAS. This game is still amazing - while I'll agree that it's a little short, what there is of it is so much fun to play that it's easy to forgive.

ShawnH.Nov 21, 2005A classic game. The graphics are cartoonish, but are seamlessly drawn and animated. A standard point and click experience, but with a great plot and great voice acting. This has been re-released with Windows XP compatibility, so there is no reason why you shouldn't pick it up.

KrzysztofP.Dec 14, 2007My sister brought it onced when we were kids. We haven't managed to make a big progress, and then she had to give it back to who she borrow it from. Since than, from time to time, I have been thinking of it and finaly I found it somewere and made my way through the whole story in about a week. And that was only dissapointment i get. Great story, great voices, great music, great game.

Oct 17, 2012This is the first adventure game i had played.and what a way to get introduced to the genre. A memorable game with Ben......a memorable protagonist plus a nice plot and included one of gaming's great villain's, Adrian Ripburger.

Nov 3, 2020In comparison to the other classic Adventures I dont think Full Throttle has the same level. The graphics is very good, but the dialogs are boring: Not much humor, and they are simple. The riddles were easy and the story, just good.
I prefer Zak McCracken, Maniac Mansion or Monkey Island. On the other side, you need to invest only few hours to know this game, so why not? -
Oct 30, 2015Amazing game!! great history, superb voice casting with mark hamill included, gone jackals soundtrack is awesome, nice puzzles. this game has almost everything if you like adventure games you wont regret it, today can still be played in modern pcs using emulators so theres no excuse.

Dec 19, 2018FT is also a perfect example of how music can make half the experience. The Gone Jackals, a biker band, provided much of the music and it’s situated so perfectly that it’s almost as if it was written especially for FT. Add to that a very good cast of voice actors, some very funny lines, and you’ve got a nearly flawless game.

Jun 7, 2020I've completed this game long time ago but memories still filling me up with joy and a hint of brutal and metal light-headiness. Some moments are quite forgetful though. Good stuff

Oct 9, 2021A fantastic adventure game marred only by a disappointingly short length and some annoying combat sequences (was there EVER a LucasArts adventure game with GOOD combat sequences?). Still the animation is great, the story is intriguing and the voice acting is top-notch, including the

Although many gamers have criticized this title as being too short, Full Throttle's amusing story and well-developed characters make this shortcoming easy to overlook.
