Full Throttle is a SCUMM based LucasArts Adventure Game released in 1995, set in a futuristic world somewhat reminiscent of Mad Max and focusing on Ben Throttle, leader of the motorcycle gang "The Polecats." After unexpectedly making friends with Corley Motors CEO Malcolm Corley while resting at The Kickstand (a biker bar), he's taken out back by Corley's vice-president and confidant, Adrian Ripburger. Ripburger offers him and the Polecats a job to escort the limo to the annual shareholders meeting, but Ben declines out of pride. Ripburger has Ben knocked out by his private thugs and chucks him in a dumpster, tricking the Polecats into following along with the escort. Ben attempts pursuit to make up for lost time, expecting an ambush for his gang, but finds his bike sabotaged and brutally wrecked on the highway. When he wakes up, he finds he's in a small mechanic's shop belonging to toaster repairwoman Maureen. She offers to fix his bike for free, as a favor, and also for the pleasure of working on a bike for the first time in a long while. But Ben quickly learns that things are not so simple, as his pursuit of Ripburger and his friendship with Maureen lead him into a greater conspiracy than he realized.The first game to be directed by Tim Schafer, Full Throttle features more of Schafer's sharp wit and love of heavy metal. It also had full voice acting and at-the-time revolutionary 3D rendering for the biker sequences. In addition, it was the only Lucas Arts game to make extensive use of licensed music, in this case by "authentic biker" metal band The Gone Jackals. While mostly an adventure game, it also splices in action-based bike fights during the driving sequences. The game is also notoriously short, even by adventure game standards, able to be completed in 4 hours even if you don't hurry. The game still has a cult following to this day.Like Grim Fandango and Day of the Tentacle, it got a remastered version, courtesy of Double Fine Productions, which was released in April 2017.For the Pinball game from Heighway Pinball, click here. | |

Retired Badass | |
| Full Throttle (Video Game) / int_112daba0 | comment |
Retired Badass: Malcolm Corley seems to have been quite a biker in his youth, considering that he apparently managed to impress Ben with his stories of the old days. He's retired from riding, but the fact that he refuses to retire as head of the company he founded, the last motorcycle manufacturer in the country, is admired even by Ben and his gang of Badass Bikers. Father Torque, the former leader of the Polecats. He even finds retirement a bit boring and can be found riding around on the Old Mine Road looking for trouble. | |

Instantly Proven Wrong | |
| Full Throttle (Video Game) / int_14180452 | comment |
Instantly Proven Wrong: Ben's sabotage of Ripburger's presentation is perfectly timed to undermine what Ripburger's saying at the time: his "vision for Corley Motors" is the company burning away to nothing (as Ben sets the projector on fire) and his "more aggressive corporate strategy" is him beating Malcolm to death (as Ben switches out the slideshow with damning evidence). | |

Tempting Fate | |
| Full Throttle (Video Game) / int_15b2cab3 | comment |
Tempting Fate: When Ben gets on his bike at the beginning of the game, he says: "When I'm on the road, I'm indestructible. No one can stop me". Shortly afterwards, his bike's front wheel comes off, and he crashes. When Nestor and Bolus assumed they have killed Ben, Nestor begins gloating about their reward. Unfortunately for the two their current derby car sprang a fuel leak, and the just happen to be close to a very large fire. | |

Mythology Gag | |
| Full Throttle (Video Game) / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: Because this is a LucasArts game, there's quite a few. The Vultures fought on the Mine Road are Wendy, Razor, Michael and Sid from Maniac Mansion. The stadium has a poster of skull and crossbones with Max's head. As a subsidiary of Lucasfilm, there's a few Star Wars Shout Outs: Miranda: "Help me, Ben, you're my only hope!" Taken a step further in the remaster; the trophy you get for passing that milestone in the story has the name "A New Hope". Emmet has a tattoo of the Imperial insignia on his upper arm. One of the mooks fought on Mine Road has a tattoo of the Rebel Alliance on his forehead. The Cavefish are basically just Tusken Raiders but with Cool Bikes, can actually talk and have all sorts of high-tech gadgets. The left-most driver at the beginning of the demolition derby bears no resemblance whatsoever to George Lucas. Nope. Nosiree... | |

Spiritual Successor | |
| Full Throttle (Video Game) / int_27a42ebc | comment |
Spiritual Successor: Tim Schafer's Brütal Legend bears some visual similarities to this one, though Brütal Legend is focused entirely on heavy metal. The style of the bikes and cars are almost identical across both games (though no hovercars in Brütal Legend), right down to the giant, spindly forks and a huge Ed "Big Daddy" Roth-style fan of rear pipes and blowers (also seen on the Bone Wagon in Grim Fandango). | |

Eventually, it's revealed that her father is Malcolm Corley, and while he used to maintain a strong relationship with his daughter, he eventually cut it off at Ripburger's advice since she was an illegitimate child. | |

| Full Throttle (Video Game) / int_2f30658a | comment |
Eyes Always Shut: Most characters' eyes are squinted, narrowed and in shadow for the majority of their appearance on-screen. The remastered version's commentary track says it was a deliberate effort to channel Clint Eastwood's squint (and just so happened to be easier to animate, particularly when dealing with the pixel art of the original release). | |

Rank Scales with Asskicking: Both Polecats leaders, main character Ben and the semi-retired Father Torque, are hard as nails and Ben is by far the toughest mofo in the game. Ripburger turns out to be a lot more dangerous than you'd expect from a businessman. Granted, he never fights anyone hand to hand and relies on sneak attacks and guns, but still. | |

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: Ben knows that Maureen needs all of her time focused on the company, and that they don't have a ton in common besides motorbikes anyway. While there's definitely a spark between them — Maureen sighs when she sees Ben is gone — for Corley Motors to survive, Maureen needs to be focused on it, not romance. | |

Stylistic Suck | |
| Full Throttle (Video Game) / int_415b3315 | comment |
Stylistic Suck: "Increased Chances" or "Chitlins, Whiskey, and Skirts," the deliberately-terrible country song in a game that loves its rock music, listened to by an unpleasant and thieving redneck, is hilarious in all the best ways, from the either lacking or lazy rhyme schemes, to the subject matter (thanking God for the nuclear apocalypse because the mass death makes his crush marginally more likely to requite his affections, shoe-horning in all the "standard country music" tropes except a train), to the slow sickly tune, to the utterly unnecessary second verse entirely consisting of yodeling. The remake had it playing in the pause screen bar. | |

No Fair Cheating: Most Mine Road fights can be cheated past, but the Cavefish will only drop their thermal goggles if knocked out with the two-by-four — using the cheat counts as defeating them with another weapon, which leads to them activating their Self-Destruct Mechanism and taking their goggles with them. | |

The Stinger: The bunnies get one final hurrah after the credits. Technically counts as a Brick Joke as well, as they are introduced in a similar context earlier in the story, albeit to a much less victorious end. There's even a trophy in the remaster for seeing it. | |

Leaning on the Fourth Wall: A few times. One funny instance is when Ben yells at Ripburger, "You're going to kill all of us!" Ripburger replies, "Shhh, Ben, you'll ruin the ending!" Which is sort of a Red Herring. | |

| Full Throttle (Video Game) / int_4da6ac | comment |
Rated M for Manly: Unusual for a point-and-click adventure, you play a musclebound tough guy in riding leathers who rides a custom bike and punches his way through the near-future American Southwest, wielding tire irons and chainsaws, accompanied by a hard rock soundtrack from a real-life biker band. Your interface includes options include the usual Look, Talk, and Pick Up/Use, but not only can Use also be Punch, the fourth default option is Kick. | |

Death Is a Slap on the Wrist | |
| Full Throttle (Video Game) / int_50727f8d | comment |
Death Is a Slap on the Wrist: If you take too long to solve any of the endgame puzzles, the game will finish off with everyone dying a rather brutal death (in a majority of cases, falling into the ravine). However, every time this happens, the screen will then black out, as we hear Ben quite casually say something like "oops, let's try that again," where the game then cuts back to the beginning of the sequence for another chance. Aside from having to start the puzzle from the beginning, there is zero penalty for "dying." This would make sense as Ben is the narrator and he's detailing the events that unfolded before the end of the game. | |

Names to Run Away from Really Fast: Ripburger is not the name of a guy you should take financial advice from, let alone put as your second in command for your company or let handle your security when you are taking a long road trip with just him and his flunkies and the biker gang he hired. Corley mainly kept him around because of Ripburger's business savvy and killer instinct, but always disliked the man immensely. | |

Death by Irony | |
| Full Throttle (Video Game) / int_9bca83eb | comment |
Death by Irony: Malcolm Corley is beaten to death by Ripburger. A Corley employee later tells Ben this is ironic because the Corley Motors slogan is "Can't beat a Corley." During the finale, these are the last words Ripburger sees, hanging on for dear life above the Poyahoga Gorge — a license plate printed with the slogan which snaps off under his weight. He might have quite literally beaten an old man, but he didn't get away with it, not against Malcolm Corley's (illegitimate) daughter and heir and her Corley-riding friend. | |

Too Dumb to Live: You can actually be this yourself if, just before Ripburger's death, you decide to start the car engine, which leads to an immediate player death scene. Of course, since Death Is a Slap on the Wrist, the sequence will just restart if you do this. | |

Treacherous Advisor | |
| Full Throttle (Video Game) / int_b8ab7dc4 | comment |
Treacherous Advisor: Even Malcolm doesn't trust Ripburger, a particularly egregious fact considering that the two of them have worked together since the Ribbon-Cutting Ceremony! So it comes as no shock when Ripburger bludgeons the old guy to death with his cane and takes over his company by force. Notably, the game is one of the few uses of this trope that bothers explaining WHY anyone would keep someone like Ripburger around: | |

Vehicular Combat | |
| Full Throttle (Video Game) / int_c30f7c4a | comment |
Vehicular Combat: A major part of gameplay and the story, as part of the game's pseudo-Mad Max setting. The roads are sufficiently dangerous that trucks may be equipped with machine guns, and the biker gangs seek each other out to pick fights with improvised weapons on the old mine roads. One of the most popular sporting events is a kind of bumper cars derby with real cars held at Corley Motors HQ, where the audience cheers as armored cars ram into each other and explode. | |

Shout-Out: The game world in general is a love letter to Mad Max and its sequels, with bikers battling their way across a Used Future in the high desert. Todd tells you to "get your greasy, oily, leather-wearing carcass off my property," a la movie gangster Johnny from Home Alone. If you try to speak with Todd repeatedly, Ben will eventually say "Candygram," just like Saturday Night Live's Land Shark who also tried to talk his way through locked doors. | |

Immoral Journalist | |
| Full Throttle (Video Game) / int_d84b22a5 | comment |
Immoral Journalist: Downplayed by the reporter Miranda: she is not actively malicious, but when she sees a potential tragedy, her first instinct is to write a story about it and send it in to her editor, and only then does she consider helping the victims. For example, while she does administer first aid to Ben after he crashes his bike early in the game, she does so only after shooting a bunch of photos of his unconscious body. Later on, when she overhears that Malcolm Corley is "headed for an ambush", she stakes out in the bushes with a camera to document said ambush instead of warning him, leading to his death (though she manages to capture the murder on film, which then becomes the main MacGuffin of the plot). | |

Purposely Overpowered | |
| Full Throttle (Video Game) / int_f89f164a | comment |
Purposely Overpowered: Although the Mine Road fights have the appearance of an action fighting game, it can be treated as more of a puzzle. The right items will one-shot the right targets, and in some cases, this is the only way to get what you need. In particular, the chainsaw stands out as one-shotting every opponent except the Cavefish (who is one-shotted by the 2x4) and the Vulture who boosts away (who is one-shotted by the chain). | |
