#Retrodude #Retrogaming #Retroforever #Retroconsoles/handhelds A full motion video (FMV) is a video game narration technique that relies upon pre-recorded video files (rather than sprites, vectors, or 3D models) to display action in the game. While many games feature FMVs as a way to present information during cutscenes, games that are primarily presented through FMVs are referred to as full-motion video games or interactive movies. The early 1980s saw almost exclusive use of the LaserDisc for FMV games. Many arcade games used the technology but it was ultimately considered a fad and fell out of use. In the early 1990s FMV games had a resurgence of interest, the proliferation of optical discs gave rise to a slew of original FMV-based computer games such as Night Trap (1992), The 7th Guest (1993), Voyeur (1993), Phantasmagoria (1995), and Daryl F. Gates' Police Quest: SWAT (1995). The introduction of CD-based consoles like 3DO, CD-i, and Sega CD brought the concept of interactive FMV gameplay. Companies such as Digital Pictures and American Laser Games were formed to produce full-motion video games. As the video game industry was emerging from its niche status into the mainstream —by 1994 it was two-and-a-half times larger than Hollywood by revenue— Hollywood began to make inroads into the growing market. In 1994, Sony's Johnny Mnemonic became the first video game title produced by a film studio. Soon thereafter, video game heavyweight Electronic Arts featured well-known Hollywood talent such as Mark Hamill, Tom Wilson and John Spencer in their critically acclaimed titles Wing Commander III and IV, setting the stage for a more expansive tie-up between the movie and video game industries. With the continual improvement of in-game CGI, FMV as a major gameplay component had eventually disappeared because of the limited gameplay options it allowed. ====================================================== You can follow me on social media including My Wishlist -https://www.amazon.co.uk/hz/wishlist/dl/invite/1Z6ZEmd facebook - https://www.facebook.com/aron.glasser twitter- https://twitter.com/AronGlasser instagram - https://www.instagram.com/aronglasser/ Nintendo switch friend code : SW-0242-1675- 3234 PlayStation ID : terminator800 Steam : terminator800718 steamcommunity.com/id/Retrodude34/ YouTube : https://www.youtube.com/user/glasser12 Discord : https://discord.gg/UNzxKSE Uplay : Azza1245 LBRY: web link https://spee.ch/@Retrodude:5da87398ea4be28a0f1056ccdf714a128f86d7ce LBRY app link : https://open.lbry.com/@Retrodude#5da87398ea4be28a0f1056ccdf714a128f86d7ce Twitch : https://www.twitch.tv/retrodudetwitch Please: like, comment & subscribe Retro forever! ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SCOQZlBRfw4

#Retrodude #Retrogaming #Retroforever #Retroconsoles/handhelds Wipeout (stylised as wipE′out″) is a futuristic racing video game developed and published by Psygnosis. It is the first game in the Wipeout series. It was originally released in 1995 for PlayStation and DOS, and in 1996 for Sega Saturn, being a launch title for the PlayStation in Europe. It was re-released as a downloadable game for the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Portable via the PlayStation Network in 2007. Set in 2052, players compete in the F3600 anti-gravity racing league, piloting one of a selection of craft in races on several tracks around the world. Unique at the time, Wipeout was noted for its futuristic setting, weapons designed to both stall and destroy enemy opponents and its marketing campaign designed by Keith Hopwood and The Designers Republic. The game features original music from CoLD SToRAGE, with tracks by Leftfield, The Chemical Brothers and Orbital appearing on some versions. The game was critically acclaimed on release; critics praised the game for its originality and its vast "unique techno soundtrack". However, it was criticised for its in-game physics. Wipeout spawned several sequels to critical acclaim. ====================================================== You can follow me on social media including My Wishlist -https://www.amazon.co.uk/hz/wishlist/dl/invite/1Z6ZEmd facebook - https://www.facebook.com/aron.glasser twitter- https://twitter.com/AronGlasser instagram - https://www.instagram.com/aronglasser/ Nintendo switch friend code : SW-0242-1675- 3234 PlayStation ID : terminator800 Steam : terminator800718 steamcommunity.com/id/Retrodude34/ YouTube : https://www.youtube.com/user/glasser12 Discord : https://discord.gg/UNzxKSE Uplay : Azza1245 LBRY: web link https://spee.ch/@Retrodude:5da87398ea4be28a0f1056ccdf714a128f86d7ce LBRY app link : https://open.lbry.com/@Retrodude#5da87398ea4be28a0f1056ccdf714a128f86d7ce Twitch : https://www.twitch.tv/retrodudetwitch Please: like, comment & subscribe Retro forever! ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UO8tdDp4iS0
