Who's ready for some Full Motion Video adventure??? I know that in the mid 90's i
was! And what better way to to play an FMV game than on Sega CD? And what better
game than WireHead? It's the story of a simple man named Ned Hubbard. A simple man with a wire sticking out of his head. Dr. Oja was able to save Ned after he was in a terrible accident by putting a tiny computer in his head. Thats where we come in. The chip has a contol unit or "controller" if you want. in the opening to the game you get to see what happens when someone gets a hold of his "unit" when his two kids make do a dance when the UPS guy shows up with a package. When he opens up the package he pulls out a video from Dr. O who has a very important maeesage for out hero. It appears that Dr. Slitcom wants to take Ned apart to find out exactly how he ticks so he can make chips just like Dr. O's and use them to control the world!! Well actually I don't really know what he wants them for but if I was the Doc thats what I would wanna do... But unfortuatly for Ned Dr. O has already been taken out by the time the video got there and the only one left that can help him is whoever is in control of his "unit". Thats where the fun begins. The doorbell rings again and when Ned answers its Dr. Slit's goons and our control of Nerd... I mean Ned begins. We take Ned out into the street, to the airport, the beach, on a skateboard, a mecanical bull, a raft and many other great advdentures. You get an offer to join the mile high club, the chance to ride a little pink girls bike and even fight with a huge brown bear!! It's all here and more in WireHead!! As far as Sega CD FMV games go this is one of the best! Actually as far as all FMV games go this is one of the best! Anyone with a Sega CD or a Sega CD emulator out there who doesnt have this gem is misiing out an truly amazing adventure! It says MGM on the box and it shows that they had alot to do with the production. It's very obvious that they spent more money on the production of this game than on most other FMV games combined! In other words... Get this game!!! And then thank me later :) |
