Limited Run Games are in charge of the physical release, and they reissued some FMV games on SEGA CD before, so I wouldn't be surprised if that happens too.

Rick Dangerous Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 Pretty happy to see this being finished. I will wait for the LRG release of this for PS4/Switch (It'll happen, may take another year after the digital release, but it'll happen) In the meantime i'll have to keep enjoying my hardcopy demo release; which is actually quite playable! Now i'm waiting for the Voyuer re-release, the top of the FMV food-chain from that era IMO... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirlynxalot Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 Is there some background story about this game/film I can read? Was atari producing it and thinking it would be totally great to boost the system? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UHATEIT Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 If Limited Run Games picks this up it'll probably be pretty pricey on the Switch. They did a run of Night Trap and another FMV type game, they only make so many and then when sold out they seem to shoot up in value. Ive got this on the Jag CD already but would not mind a Switch release. There is a 50+ minute video on Youtube of the entire game start to finish I've watched before as well. On the Jag CD the furthest I made it was in the back alley getting chased by the Semi-truck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick Dangerous Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 (edited) If they censor the breasts....no sale. Or I'll get whichever version isn't censored (PS4?). There is no reason not to have them it's part of the seedy feel of the game. Edited June 29, 2021 by Rick Dangerous 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did a run of Night Trap and another FMV type game, they only make so many and then when sold out they seem to shoot up in value. LRG used to sell stuff in two batches on the same day with limited quantities, but it has become quite rare lately. Now they will typically open pre-orders for one month, so they'll produce everything that has been ordered during the period - limited time, but no limited stock. Unless you completely miss the pre-order period (which is hard if you subscribe to their newsletter), there's no reason you should miss anything. That being said, you have to be patient because items usually ship 4-5 months after pre-orders are closed... ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vrocko Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 Surprised that they are doing an old FMV game on the PS4, Xbox, Switch. I thought those died out with the 90's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was the one you flew a ship in the sewer? I think I was on the Saturn. I remember playing that one. I've seen Night Trap and Mad Dog Mcree. Never saw Plumbers Don't Wear Ties but heard a lot about it. Well the '80's made a comeback why not the '90's! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're thinking of Sewer Shark. Would not be surprised at all if LRG made a release of that as well down the line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roots.genoa Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 (edited) LRG only produces physical releases though, they don't publish anything. It's Screaming Villains that re-released the FMV games (Night Trap, Ground Zero Texas, etc.) and Ziggurat is in charge of American Hero.
