@gatoconbotas It will happen for the next years. They already done Monkey Island 1 and 2, for example. :D They will remake "The DIg" and "Full Throttle" in the future.
It was a great day in history when this disgrace to the beautiful masterpiece that was Full Throttle disappeared, never to be seen or heard from again. Dead, buried, gone. FOREVER. But seriously..this trailer doesn't even remotely reflect the style of the initial game and makes it look basically like a complete joke.
Seeing how the 3D era adventure games from Lucasarts turned out (Escape from Monkey Island, Grim Fandango) I think this could've been great. If a sequel were to come out some day, I hope they keep the 90's/early 2000's style of humor to it. "Funny" games today are not quite as funny as fun games were back in the day.
Exactly what I was thinking, this video kinda reminded me of Grim fandango, so the people saying this should of been cancelled are idiots or know jack shit about Lucas Arts,
This probably could've ended up decent, despite the new engine and odd choice of art style, but it wouldn't have been the same after the original voice for Ben died.
I bet this would have been fun, but I also bet it used the GrimE engine instead of SCUMM, which means it would have sucked really bad. (I love Grim Fandango, but the controls are utter ****)
why did lucasarts change the art style of this game?? the cartoon style was awesome. If they were going to make a sequel, they could make a really great game these days.
@Kainthemain Probably because of the stupid need of keeping up with the times. As if 3D were much cooler... you know, because the 2D were for old, cranky people.
In my opinion, it's not that 3D "dates too fast" , it's just that there's good 3D/Rendered and bad 3D/rendered (a right way and a wrong way to do it) unfortunately a lot of people who worked on the 2D games or other systems, ect. make a bunch of bad decisions when deciding to go 3D. For example squaresoft/final fantasy creators hasn't always gotten 3D right but they eventually (and finally) started making better quality 3D
I remember a good deal of people (including my much younger self) being upset when this was canceled while other boring Star Wars games got the greenlight. But after going back and looking at this trailer, the only words I can muster are:
I think the whole problem is, that 3Ds goal is to be more realistic. But these Lucas Arts Adventures, and of course the other point-and-click adventures in this period, had the goal to be like a animated cartoon. Bending the body... Lines to symbol speed... or these washed blur-effects. You can't this with normal 3D action. It will always look lame!
When theses games go 3D, that's pretty much the end, because they cheaply do the animation. Monkey Island didnt do well when it went 3D. Curse of Monkey was excellent. A good 2D adventure is what we all need.
Yeah! Awesome! Totally Rad Dude! It's like Wicked up in here! Totally Fabulous! Yeah! Yeeeeah! We're the Polecats! Yeah!!! Rock on Dudes and Dudettes!
Why this second game brought back Maureen (a character that ran its course and is probably better left out of any later games) and changed the Polecats insignia, I'll never know. It's probably for the best that it died out.
Damn!! No matter what!! I would love I had the opportunity to have this game. I´m a fan of Full Throttle and still have the original disc, which I bought it bak on 1996. I hope thye make the FULL THROTTLE 2 game after all.
I do not know whats wrong with game industry nowadays, the game sold zillions, it was one of the most fantastic games i ever played, and now just because computers have better graphis they intend to fuck up with everything and turn everything into fucking first person shooters. Man if it was good, improve it, but if it was FUCKING AWESOME, just FUCKING keep it the way it was
@lhagek Driving a hawg in a first-person game could be awesome, though. It would be like the dune buggy from Half-Life 2 except with two wheels and it you drive way faster. It would NOT drive like Halo vehicles. You'd have to be able to look around independently of your driving. They could also go with a third-person style. All or most of the combat would probably be melee, so third-person would probably be the best angle. Either that or 1st/3rd selective.
They could still do it, But they should do it well and not be silly with the designs. That hair doo? seriously we don't need anymor Jar-Jars (Lucas Screwups). The first one played out like a film, but we don't need a sequel that plays out like a silly Saturday Morning Cartoon. Seriously.
@joelx200 Jar Jar could have been like Pippin Took if he'd been written properly. All George Lucas stories have a Jar Jar in them (to some degree) -- or characters that sometimes "pull a Jar Jar" (which even includes Madmartigan from 'Willow').
@igorchernakov I played the windows compatible version of Full Throttle, but I've heard that there are custom made scenarios for the game using a special program. Do you know anything about it?
@CubeableGame no, never heard of. i rather doubt that something like that really has been made, i know only OpenQuest - a custom-made game for scummvm
Oh god, thank god it got canceled. Full Throttle doesn't need a sequel that looks like a campy under-produced Japanese kids show. And moving to a metal soundtrack from the Gone Jackals?... AAAgghhhhhh!
this sux!! never make that game 3D never give it stupid animations.if they make a new game hey better just keep the old graphics and old gameplay not this shit
After watching this trailer, I'm glad the game got canceled, even though I loved FT1. This looks like some cheap, thrown-together button masher for the Xbox, completely unworthy to ever be released. Not only that, but I counted Ben smiling twice for no good reason. Ben doesn't smile for anything.
what if the first game got a remake, if it were remade, i would want the whole thing to be the same, gameplay, story what-not, but improve on the graphics, a sequal wouldnt have been bad as long as it stayed together as the first one, and had a better engine than this
@Miyaki497 yeah, if the graphics looked basically the same, just smoother. I liked the style of graphics, they just need to be cleaned up a bit and what not.
what if the first game got a remake, if it were remade, i would want the whole thing to be the same, gameplay, story what-not, but improve on the graphics, a sequal wouldnt have been bad as long as it stayed together as the first one, and had a better engine than this
i think it wouldn't be such a bad idea to just launch the same old animated and simple Full Throttle 1 to newer windows versions, and avoid problems with installing or playing, and the need to use such things as dos box.
I'm disappointed that we may never get a new full throttle game, but I gotta say the art direction for this game would have been crap. The orginal game looked like an animated movie or a living comic book, but it did not look like a CARTOON. It was not supposed to. It was intended for an older audience, and they made sure that everything looked at least somewhat grounded, despite how crazy it all was. This game looks like it would have been straight up campy, and the characters look like toys.
@burakyazar2003 yeah, and a better voice actor for ben, I think "I" could have done a better job. I know the voice actor died, but they could find a better replacment.
I can see why this failed but that's to bad, becuase with this failure Lucasarts sealed the coffin on full throttle. Plus isn't the guy who did Ben's voice dead?
@travis94falle cause these 3d graphics look cheap as hell and it wasnt supposed to be an adventure and tim schaffer (maybe i misspelled his name) didnt work on this one anymore. so it probly wouldnt becharacter and story driven anymore, just another shitty 3d action, and there were enough of those in the early 2000's.
Lucasarts had lost their way (not to mention all the designers\writers who made all their games great). This would have been a cartoony, actioney, terrible mark on the Full Throttle name.
For god sake, why is everyone so intent on ditching 2D art in favour or comparatively lifeless 3D? Few things are more expressive than an artists' pencil.
The images from Full Throttle: Payback (2000) looked way better than this. Still, hard to top such a classic. I've never seen this particular trailer until today. Wow...this game looked shitty. Good thing it was never made.
They should really invest into making another point and click game using the old style 2D graphics, they were beautiful and so well animated. The only thing that dates them are the pixels yet they still look better than this crap, 3D dates way too fast.
Today's generation is missing out on those sort of games, especially when all they do is re-hash them in a 3D format. Long live 2D animation and 2D games!
Yepp... I loved that old stuff. DOTT, Full Throttle, Indiana Jones 4... If you are really still interested in making a NEW "Old-School"-Game and when you have some knowledge to bring in, send me a PM.
ha ha ha i realy wanted to see this new history = / to bad that Roy Conrad (BEN's Voice) had died of cancêr ... (PT) ha ha ha bem q eu qria ver essa nova historia = / pena q Roy Conrad (Locutor da Voz de Ben) morreu de cancer antes de termina o jogo ;' (
a game like this could actually work and be on a equal to full throttle in its own right, as long as they made it original like the way full throttle was in its own way, if they try to copy the original but in full throttle thats when disatser would strike! big time!!
Can we stop with the 3D adventure games. They look awful, bring back the lovely cell shaded 2d adventure games with the high quality animation and story lines. This looked flipping dreadful
Glad they canceled this piece of shit. A shame for the original game. Hope one day they'll make a real sequel as great as the original but seems to be a dream.
If this game was supposed to look like that I'm somehow glad and grateful that they've canceled it. Still... it would be nice if they made Full Throttle 2 that would be at least in 80% as good as the first part.
THANK GOD! Now they can work on the next 4,000 Star Wars related games and really get down to business.
Oh god, the graphics *WAAAAAAAH!*
That's like saying TF2 is a bad sequel because the graphics changed all cartoony.
99% of you are trying to convince yourselves this would be a bad game, that it would be a horrible game, because deep down, you don't really know what you want, and it would scare you shitless if you did.
But like the one that got away, "*Whew* dodged a shitty-looking bullet"
@dollors1 It isn't that. I understand what you're saying, but you look at the production value of the first game - I still think it looks great today. Sure, it was low-res, but it was more of a film than a game. The designers put everything into it, and it shows.
This doesn't have the same quality - aesthetically, or intellectually. FT had a great, if simple, storyline. It was breezy, but worked really well; all of the characters had their motivations. This ruins all of that, especially Ben.
It looked like they were going to make it as a game for kiddies. I hope the person that was working on the new biker names was fired Wraiths? Hound dogs?. Im kind of glad they cancelled it. Not the same the way it looked.
It would have been awesome if they made two different modes of this game an 'action' mode and a 'adventure game' mode. That way they could have had a larger audience buying the game.
Gosh, it sucks. It's a good thing they pulled the plug on this one. The graphics looks alright but the characters look like crap. And why is Ben smiling all the time? That's not his characteristics. I don't mind a sequel but provided that creator Tim Schafer is involved.
It was supposedly finished when they canned it. Like Evil Genius 2, a great game that will never see the light of day. Forever Vaulted. Of course Evil Genius 2 was vaulted because they didn't have enough money to launch and the company behind Tropico bought it and vaulted it so it wouldn't compete with Tropico 2: Pirates Cove... Which to me is bullshit.
This is a trailer from 2003. LucasArts canceled the project, and it doesn't look like there's any takers for a remake. Which is cool, I'll have pristine memories of the original.
@OmegaDude22 You said it... The original is a classic, there's no way they could do it any better.. Except if they were to re-release it, as it is. The guy who voiced Ben passed away too, he was what made the game what it was.

they should make a remake of full throttle only with better graphics and nothing else im glad that the game isnt made^^

Lucasarts had lost their way (not to mention all the designers\writers who made all their games great). This would have been a cartoony, actioney, terrible mark on the Full Throttle name.
For god sake, why is everyone so intent on ditching 2D art in favour or comparatively lifeless 3D? Few things are more expressive than an artists' pencil.

The images from Full Throttle: Payback (2000) looked way better than this. Still, hard to top such a classic. I've never seen this particular trailer until today. Wow...this game looked shitty. Good thing it was never made.

They should really invest into making another point and click game using the old style 2D graphics, they were beautiful and so well animated. The only thing that dates them are the pixels yet they still look better than this crap, 3D dates way too fast.
Today's generation is missing out on those sort of games, especially when all they do is re-hash them in a 3D format. Long live 2D animation and 2D games!

Yepp... I loved that old stuff. DOTT, Full Throttle, Indiana Jones 4... If you are really still interested in making a NEW "Old-School"-Game and when you have some knowledge to bring in, send me a PM.

a game like this could actually work and be on a equal to full throttle in its own right, as long as they made it original like the way full throttle was in its own way, if they try to copy the original but in full throttle thats when disatser would strike! big time!!

If this game was supposed to look like that I'm somehow glad and grateful that they've canceled it. Still... it would be nice if they made Full Throttle 2 that would be at least in 80% as good as the first part.

THANK GOD! Now they can work on the next 4,000 Star Wars related games and really get down to business.
Oh god, the graphics *WAAAAAAAH!*
That's like saying TF2 is a bad sequel because the graphics changed all cartoony.
99% of you are trying to convince yourselves this would be a bad game, that it would be a horrible game, because deep down, you don't really know what you want, and it would scare you shitless if you did.
But like the one that got away, "*Whew* dodged a shitty-looking bullet"
dollors1 1 year ago
@dollors1 It isn't that. I understand what you're saying, but you look at the production value of the first game - I still think it looks great today. Sure, it was low-res, but it was more of a film than a game. The designers put everything into it, and it shows.
This doesn't have the same quality - aesthetically, or intellectually. FT had a great, if simple, storyline. It was breezy, but worked really well; all of the characters had their motivations. This ruins all of that, especially Ben.

It looked like they were going to make it as a game for kiddies. I hope the person that was working on the new biker names was fired Wraiths? Hound dogs?. Im kind of glad they cancelled it. Not the same the way it looked.

This had no element of adventure game in it, it would have lost the original fans very quickly, which all sifted on to monkey island anyway.
Thank god its managed to keep it's reputation as fantastic!

It would have been awesome if they made two different modes of this game an 'action' mode and a 'adventure game' mode. That way they could have had a larger audience buying the game.

@Flophole I agree. You cant take a classic like that from the old style and remake it just for the sake of a sequel. that would have flopped majorly.
goingtoeatpizza 1 year ago
Gosh, it sucks. It's a good thing they pulled the plug on this one. The graphics looks alright but the characters look like crap. And why is Ben smiling all the time? That's not his characteristics. I don't mind a sequel but provided that creator Tim Schafer is involved.

madzombie6 2 years ago
It was supposedly finished when they canned it. Like Evil Genius 2, a great game that will never see the light of day. Forever Vaulted. Of course Evil Genius 2 was vaulted because they didn't have enough money to launch and the company behind Tropico bought it and vaulted it so it wouldn't compete with Tropico 2: Pirates Cove... Which to me is bullshit.

This is a trailer from 2003. LucasArts canceled the project, and it doesn't look like there's any takers for a remake. Which is cool, I'll have pristine memories of the original.
