![]() Most notably, the storyline is fairly simplistic: just a road movie-like adventure of crime and revenge. Who cares, right? What really matters is that younger gamers can finally play this old-school cult classic in the comfort of their widescreen monitors, and without having to meddle with emulators and such - and indeed, this definitely is a classic, albeit somewhat different than the rest of its ilk. This basically means that the "dirtier," 1995 pixel art can actually look more detailed at times, while the new vector-like visuals end up feeling bland - although, to be honest, this is just a nit-pick, as some scenes look mighty fine. Unlike in Day of the Tentacle, which was nothing more than a Looney Tunes cartoon, the new design isn't so successful here, as Full Throttle opted for a more realistic look, despite it still being… well, a cartoon. ![]() Great stuff? Yup… However, the modern facelift has ruined part of the original's charm. It's possible to mix and match older voice-overs and tunes, listen to commentary from the creators, and, most importantly, go from the pixely, vanilla visuals to the new, clean and crispy ones with the single push of a button, and with the transition being almost as fast as the high-tech bike of the protagonist. ![]() Full Throttle Remastered's upgrading is exactly like the one offered in Day of the Tentacle Remastered, and that's a good thing.
