One of the Lucas Arts adventure game classics that we sadly do not see from them anymore

This was the first of these types of games I had played and what a way to start! Being introduced to one of the best in the genre probably spoiled me though.

The voice cast was top notch, not forgetting the indomitable presence of Mark Hamil playing the main villain of the story, exhibiting his usual mastery of voice acting (which at the time was rather surprising to me). As a biker for a motorcycle enthusiast gang in the not to distant future, you find yourself framed for the murder of one of the greatest motorcycle makers ever made and you must try and uncover the true conspiracy behind it, leading you on an adventure filled with humorous character, and futuristic intrigue driven by motorcycles and rough characters.

The detail and style of the animation was very suitable for a mixture of old and futuristic, with western style bars, bad ass bikers, and floating limos with no wheels.

The interaction was what tied all this game together, allowing the user to really explore the universe which the game took place and have some fun, although the game in the end, like most games of this genre, was rather linear.

The music was very suited to this game, and considering the company behind it, I would expect no less.

In the end I enjoyed this game immensely, and although I was disappointed to see Lucas Arts can the sequel, it isn't the same Lucas Arts as it was back when this genre was all the rage, and neither was the game, giving up the lush animated sprites for boring polygons. But maybe someday they'll wise up and we'll see a real sequel to this masterful adventure story.
