Released in 1995 for the Sega CD platform, Wirehead is an interactive movie video game that distinguishes itself with a full-motion video (FMV) format reminiscent of the multimedia trend of the 1990s. Players control Ned Hubbard, the titular 'Wirehead,' who finds himself on a madcap adventure after a home invasion forces him to go on the run. Utilizing pre-recorded video sequences, players make choices that dictate the direction of the narrative, often resulting in comic situations or unexpected outcomes, making for a unique genre blending experience that combines adventure gaming with cinematic storytelling.
