Full Throttle (1987 video game)

Full Throttle, also known as Top Speed, is a one-player racing arcade game developed by Taito in 1987.

It is similar in style to the Out Run games in that it features a fast, red car hurtling through the US countryside.

[3][4] In Japan, Game Machine listed Full Throttle on their November 15, 1987 issue as being the second most-successful upright arcade unit of the month.

[7] Clare Edgeley of Computer and Video Games gave Top Speed a positive review, comparing it favorably to Out Run and complimented its graphics and smooth handling.

[3] Commodore User, on the other hand, rated Full Throttle five out of ten, calling it a clone of Out Run and comparing it unfavorably to Sega's game.
