Full Throttle; Blast from the Past

I was watching some Tech TV and was watching a review for a game that had a graphic style that made me reminisce about older computer games... specifically, that old Lucas Arts gem, Full Throttle. By chance, if you never played this one when you were younger, this was a RPG type adventure story (kind of like say, Monkey Island, Maniac Mansion, etc.) where you play a biker gang (Polecats) leader named Ben who has to fix his bike and get back on the road and take down a motor company exec who killed the founder of the motorcycle manufacturer and framed it on you.

Submitted for your nostalgia, the video intro from the game itself.

I first played this game in, oh, 1996, a bit after it's release, at a friend's place. After getting it, I spent many hours running through the puzzles and adventures. This was one of my favorites back in the day.

Were you a fan of the game? Any favorite moments? Thoughts?
In Real Life ™, people who aim to maximize their potential for lethality are called "dangerous psychotics" and are typically avoided by everyone who isn't forced to endure their company until someone has the opportunity to put them away or else put them down. No one likes that guy. Don't play that guy.
