years and years back my brothers bought this game when dos was hitech, and i watched them play it and we all loved it
for me it seemded so hard at the time to do it and years later, i downloaded a version and played it again and hearing bens voice and that music when ur outside brought back so many memories
i looked into the game a bit more and when i found out roy conrad died (voice of ben) i was strangely upset. U really do learn to loveben as a character and his voice was perfect. Hearing that he died of cancer was very upsetting i really would have loved to have seen a full throttle 2 with his voice again!
shame , ohwell. long live Ben and the polcats!

"I'm not puttin' my lips on that."

That pretty much became the classic line from the game :)

You're right his voice 100% perfect for that character.

=( I remember playing this game when I was a young kid. I just loved it.

At the end Father Torque talkes about Corley : Here goes.

Life, was a game to him and he played it by his own rules. He was a mystery to most of us and yet an inspiration to us all.

He gave us freedom, he gave us power, he gave us wings, he gave us wheels. Thank you Roy Conrad for giving us a dream that will never die.

RIP.

I too was upset to read that Roy died back in 2002. Glad other people appreciate his work, I was also pleasantly suprised to see he has an entry on wikipedia.
