The compact disc was amazing for gaming. More data, cheap to manufacture with incredible sound compression. The future looked bright. For video game publishers in the early 90’s, this incredible format was the perfect vehicle to show what their cutting edge systems and games could do. This urge to be cutting edge opened the gateway to the flood of FMV games. It’s especially true when we look at systems like the Sega CD and how heavily their marketing campaigns leveraged FMV gaming to promote the capabilities of CD-based gaming.

The real appeal of FMV gaming was being able to place the gamer inside a movie or a TV show, and American Laser Games took this opportunity to make Western, Gangster, Police and Zombie themed titles for most of the early CD-based systems, including the Sega CD.

We’re previously reviewed the Sega Menacer Light Gun for the Mega Drive, along with 3 of its compatible cartridge games. Now we’re looking at the rest of the Menacer-compatible library, consisting mostly of full motion videogames and why FMV games failed.
