This was one of the very first PC games I ever played when I was a kid. I remember being overwhelmed with controls at first but excited by everything you could do in the game. The map is huge and covers like 10 miles of Los Angeles. I'd love to be able to roam around that world again.
I first played this when I was 10 (shortly after it was released) and it was the first open world game I'd ever played and for the time it was beyond amazing. You can see how Bethesda's open world games started with this title and I'd love to play it again, especially on a DRM-free platform like GOG.
I had this game back on that trusty ol 386 IBM. Had no idea what I was doing every once in awhile I would run into Kyle Reese. Mostly I just played the Terminator and raised mayhem after getting into the military base. I vaguely remember the cars being Automatic or Manual, and shifting gears was a chore. The kill cams when you would off people was amusing. The game was beyond it's time, too technical for the technology it was built with... yet I loved it.
Nuclear StrikeNuclear Strike is a shooter video game developed and published by Electronic Arts for the PlayStation in 1997. The game is the sequel to Soviet Strike and the fifth instalment in the Strike series, which began with Desert Strike on the Sega Genesis. The Soviet Strike development team also created Nuclear Strike. EA released a PC port the same year; THQ developed and in 1999 published a Nintendo 64 version called Nuclear Strike 64.
Nuclear Strike is a helicopter-based game, with strategy elements added to the action gameplay. The plot concerns an elite special force - the player's allies - pursuing a nuclear-armed rogue spy through a fictionalised Asian setting. It retained the earlier game's engine but added several modifications to improve graphical performance and make the game more accessible. The game features 15 playable vehicles, a large increase from previous games. In addition to the main fictionalised Apache, there are secondary helicopters, jets, armour and a hovercraft. The player also commands ground troops in occasional real-time strategy sections.
The game received positive, negative and mixed reviews. Critics noted a weak storyline, though GameSpot dismissed this is as unimportant in an action game. GameSpot called the graphics - which made use of specialised hardware such as 3Dfx Voodoo video cards and the N64 Expansion Pak - "about as good as it gets", while Allgame said they are "decent" and Daily Radar called them "horrible". Critics praised the full motion video as well as the music and sound effects. Reviewers enjoyed the straightforward gameplay but several complained of a close similarity to its predecessor Soviet Strike and questioned the game's value as a result.Action
