1990 Zeppelin Games (UK)
by Michael Batty

This is one of the worst sequels I've ever played. What a big disappointment. I absolutely loved the first FT, so I was naturally expecting something at least with the same quality. No. In terms of quality this is thousands of miles away from the original and I'm afraid there is really nothing good to say about this. Avoid.

A high disappointment .

Thanks god there is no third part ! ;D

Awful from start to finish ,,, :(

The disappointing sequel to Full Throttle. It is a fast running, smoothly animated, rear view motorbike racer, like the original. It does not, unfortunately, share the great playability of its predecessor.
I can't get a feel for the bike, at all. This is a bike that can slide across the track, at zero mph, wheels not turning. It is also capable, occasionally, of suspending itself leant over at 45 degrees, while totally stationary and not cornering. Contact with any other bikes, or running wide, seems to result in the bike slowly decelerating to a stop, after getting back on track or clearing the other bike, before allowing you to accelerate again. This must be about the most annoying and pointless 'punishment' in a racing game.
There is a really good graphics engine used in this game, which is about all that saves it from a 1 rating. Compared to the original, this really fails to deliver. They even mis-spell Donington.

Being someone who wasn't a fan of Full Throttle the last thing it needed was a sequel, especially one that is even worse. I never said I hated the first game but I can easily say I hate this game.

Well the graphics are better but I refuse to call this a sequel, more like an inferior clone. Surprised they didn't try to do a Deathchase 2. Upgrade of original games sometimes work, but this was some like a downgrade.
