A gaming sub free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Always wanted to play it when it was released, but never got around to it and totally forgot about it.

Till it popped up in my recommended feed and bought instantly.

Damn, what a game. Point & click adventure game at its finest. If its not the humor or the beautiful art that draws you in, the music certainly will.

If you like point & click games, this one you should definitely play this game.

Has anyone played both the original and remastered? I wonder how they compare, I think I may try the remastered version next time around, it had a big impact on me in my youth.

It's basically the same game just with modern controller support and HD graphics. It looks better. The 3d FMVs look less dated.

Edit: I had Full Throttle in my head. But mostly the same pretty much applies to Gim Fandango. And they made the tank controls optional. It plays like an actual point and click now.

You can switch between the new and old graphics of the gameplay while playing.

Never played the original before but this looked really nice.
