Full Throttle II: Hell On Wheels

Note: production on Full Throttle 2 was stopped on August 7, 2003.

The original Full Throttle, released in 1995, is considered one of the most cinematic adventure games created. Now, eight years later, LucasArts is going back to the classic—this time with Sean Clark at the helm.

The game again centers around Ben, leader of a motorcycle gang called the Polecats. In the playable demo we saw at E3, the Hound Dogs gang steals Ben’s bike, which leads Ben to infiltrate the Hound Dogs’ abandoned drive-in theater hideout. It should be noted that anything we’re shown right now is still very much in development. Just to illustrate, in one particular encounter a character named Wonda appeared to be leaning against a non-existent wall. Judge it on a work-in-progress basis, if you will.
