UMBCast 021 - Full Throttle




The Upper Memory Block show

Summary: Time for episode 21! This time around, I'm covering the great 1995 Lucasarts adventure game, Full Throttle. But first, a bit of news: It's the new year which means it's time for CES. I talk a little bit about some things announced there and my hopes for the upcoming Steam Box. A kickstarter campaign who's aim is to remake the original space trading game, Elite successfully funded. Check it out! Finally, it seems the remake of Leisure Suit Larry is on schedule for a Q1 2013 release. A quick voicemail from Rick Moyer all about the creation of the show's intro song. Then on to the main topic, Full Throttle. I cover all the usual topics and play a lot of clips from the game. Next time, I'll be talking about the 1999 business sim, Rollercoaster Tycoon. Enjoy!
