Unfortunatly I have a bit of bad news. The bloke who did the voice for the main character in Full Throttle, is very ill with cancer.
The "granite" voiced character is, I feel, one of the best characters Lucasarts created, even though the game was rather short.
Ah well...

Lucas Arts just don't make games the way they used to.

I think we would have been informed if he had passed away, so he is still alive. Hopefully he's happy.

Full Throttle was a great Dos game!
I hope he gets better!
For those who don't know, it's a game about a motorbike gang called The Polecats who want to stop Corley Motors (I think that's right), the worlds greatest motorbike manufacturer, from converting the production of bikes to vans!
The owner of Corley Motors is asassinated and you have to stop the second in command changing things...
It ends up with a plane without wings about to fly off a cliff....you've got to stop it somehow!
I like the music when the cops are involved :)
If I had to rate this game, I'd give it 9/10 for originality!
It's one of my favourite classic PC games!

Good point. I'll go searching.
So how's he doing now?
