In the first scenes, we are shown how one of the leaders of another gang is driving along the road with Andrian Ripburger to a stock meeting. They want to implement plans for the future fate of Corley Motors, and specifically - to transfer the entire production of the plant to minivans. Next, they reveal to us the facts that Corley's partner is chasing profit, therefore he opposes the inheritance of the company.. At one point, Corley stops near one of the roadside bars, where he meets Ben and asks him to accompany him to the meeting place of shareholders, but the protagonist refuses, because the Ferrets do not work for money, and even more so for hire.
Ripburger knows about Corley's plans, so he walks into the bar, calls Ben to talk one-on-one, and stuns him behind the bar, hiding him in the trash can. Returning, Ripburger says that the leader of Kharkiv agreed to be escorted.
We will resolve the conflict of interests of two owners of a large company, one of whom wants to put it on the path of monetary development, and the second wants to preserve the stability of the company, traditions and production so that working people can live in abundance.
The developers have added an interesting interface. When you hover over a character, a flaming human skull appears. This means that we can interact with a person: talk to him, inspect, hit.
As the hero of the game, you play the part of a Desperate Dan look-alike by the name of Ben Framed for the murder of the head-honcho at Corley Motors the last remaining manufacturers of motorbikes , Ben's job is to track down the real murderer and clear his name. Gameplay not only covers the traditional adventure-style gameplay we have come to expect from LucasArts, but it also includes extensive cinematics which make use of a distinctive graphic style and a number of 3D action sequences.
Aside from the fantastic visuals the game is also the first LucasArts adventure designed specifically for CD. Unlike previous SCUMMers, Full Throttle has a specifically composed digital music score, as well as full speech and sampled sound effects throughout. Disappointing as it will be to many of our readers, Full Throttle has very little to do with lovingly fingering the Adam's apple of a pekinese, or getting your hands firmly clamped over the windpipe of a King Charles spaniel.
In fact, the popular sport of fluffy dog-strangling doesn't make a single appearance in the game. Instead, the designers have seen fit to set the game in the more tawdry world of motorcycle gangs, with all its accompanying smelly leather clothing and dodgy personal habits. Regular readers of Throttling News and Itchy Thumbs Monthly, the consumer lifestyle magazines for those who feel the need to squeeze on a regular basis, may now return this magazine to the newsagent's shelf and depart.
Right, who's left? Oh, only you three. Ah, well. Okay then, here goes. Full Throttle is set in the near future. In other words, it's the future, but not as you imagined it at the age of ten. People have not yet taken to walking about in Bacofoil suits while robots do the washing up or allow you to have sex with them while they're doing the washing up.
That's not to say that people's lives are the same as they are today. Many things that nowadays we take for granted are radically different - the bad news is that the quality of television has deteriorated to the point that Bay-watch is looked on as hard-hitting social realism. The good news is that Noel Edmonds is dead. But it's in the area of private transportation that things have altered most noticeably. Wheels are a thing of the past. Designers have done away with those round, confounded nuisances that judder so badly when you hit a lollipop man, and all road-going vehicles now hover impressively a good couple of feet above the ground.
In fact, if you hit a lollipop man with one of these things, you would come away with a new bonnet ornament of an interestingly pink and floppy design. Did I say all vehicles? Make that almost all vehicles Malcolm Corley, the founder and chief executive of Corley Motors, is the reason that their bikes still look like bikes, and not like big metal hovering slugs.
An ex-biker dude himself, he still has set ideas about what a bike consists of and how it should look, and still gets excited when he sees fast bikes although not as excited as Marianne Faithful got in Girl On A Motorbike. I don't know what she was sitting on in that film, but it must have been good to make her pull those faces.
Anyway, Adrian Ripburger, the vice president of Corley Motors, has never been on a motorbike in his life, thanks to a debilitating inner ear condition. Yeah, right. Complete lack of cojones, more like. Ripburger, the soulless, deviant son of a scum-sucking cockroach that he is sorry, I get really into these plots , wants to change all this "real bike" nonsense.
Bikes without wheels make more profits; it's probably something to do with the world spoke mountain, or the chronic shortage of trained rimmers. And if bikes without wheels make more profits, that's what Ripburger wants to make.
He's already laid off 98 per cent of the work force, cancelled lunch breaks and introduced hard toilet paper in the name of streamlining productivity.
Corley says that Ripburger will introduce the latest proposed changes over his dead body. I think we all know where this is leading That's where you come in. You're Ben, the leader of the Polecats; the hardest, dirtiest, most terrifying gang of all. You are the leader, despite your name.
But then look at your second in command - his name's Darrell. Anyway, since you're the hero, you also have a streak of decency in you and some pride. You're in the Kickstand bar with your pals, having fun breaking pool cues over the heads of Japanese tourists, or something. In comes old man Corley, and you've just started chatting about the days when he never washed his jeans, when Ripburger approaches you to see whether your gang would be prepared to act as an escort to the Corley board meeting.
You say no, but he tricks you outside, you get smacked over the head and, before you know it, you're knee deep in shit. Your gang's heading off to be ambushed by the treacherous Ripburger, the old man's life is in danger, and you're just about to find out what it's like to ride one of those bikes without wheels - well, without one wheel, anyway. Your bike's been got at and it's time to taste tarmac. From then on, things develop pretty much as they do in previous LucasArts point-and-click adventures, and, if you've played any of them from Monkey Island onwards, you'll find yourself on familiar ground.
