Was this game Giant Bomb was talking about this week?

 

[Dremorak]

Is that Jennifer anniston?
And Penn and Teller?

I have so many questions

I've been trying to get this game running properly for years, downloaded so many old versions of Quicktime.

Loved it when I was younger and when you tell people about it, nobody believes you.

The editing in the game was the real meat and the most accurate to the real thing. So just watching a choose your own adventure really misses out on half of what I loved - hopefully this gets it out in front of more folks so it can be made much more easier to play.

Oh, thought this was about that Goosebumps FMV game with Jeff Goldblum

 

[Flash]

The weird pauses, over the top acting and music reminds me of a shitty version of Twin Peaks. Yikes.

 

[CoolOff]

This is batshit insane in the best way.

It works well with DosBox + Windows 3.1 ! Will play it a bit later today, very fun stuff.

Good ol Steven Gamemountain.

And Tarantino did this post Pulp Fiction.

Here's Tarantino talking about it a bit.
Spielberg actually did direct it. Or at least part of it.

Making of.

Amazing stuff! The 90's was a wild time.

Ha - Director's Chair. I think I may have copy of it in attic somewhere. Really enjoyed this back in the day. The varius FMV sequences were variable in quality but putting together your own film with your own editing was really something at the time. Sank a lot of hours into this at the time.

 

[JacksonJordanTyson]

so how do we play this?

 

[Remember Me]

It's down for the moment though, getting a lot of traffic.

FMV games are my shit. So glad we've had a mini-resurgence of them.

Why the hell is Tarantino in this? WTF is he doing? 😂

 

[SinkFla]

This is amazing

 

[mattiewheels]

I'm not sure how this is the first time I've heard of this. Did they not promote this at all when it came out?

 

[Slim Action]

Tarantino's entire "acting career" is basically a running joke. Perfect for an FMV game.

What a compelling concept. I've never heard of this game, buy obviously it doesn't shine as a pure cyoa experience. Still, what an interesting time capsule and a cool way for Spielberg to explore filmmaking though the medium of games.
