Loved this game when I was a kid. My fave was the sentry gun ... set it up, go say hello to the mobs then run back to the gun ... BUDDA BUDDA THWACK THWACK SKREEEEEEE !!! ....... :)
Even though I realise today that some gameplay elements in this game are rather strange-two characters are enough to play a singleplayer map,other two are just a moving backpack,lot of types of weapons with very minor differencies,basically only the sound they make and the used ammo differs(same goes for the monsters),the RPG elements of the characters arent much important... But it has awesome atmosphere primarily thanks to the excellent audio.The mp deathmatches in Buckminster Park are classic
OMFG - used to love this game. . . . .Can u download it on an emulator or sommat from somewhere. . . . Tesseract was bad ass. . . The gun on player 1 screen a bit further on in the game sounds like the gun off Aliens (Alien 2) . . .MINT !!!!
Yes, you can. Just go to PlanetEMU. You'll have to add the W's to the start and ".net" to the end of it because of YouTube's idiotic restrictions of posting anything that even resembles an URL in the comments. PlanetEMU is a French site, but I'me sure you can figure it out.
yeah u know!! proper crowded but it didnt matter!! my a1200 & this game was the first good reason i had to hook up to an amp & big speakers rather than just the tv :)

played this game on an AMIGA emulator about 6 months ago. Still rocks. Still has better gameplay than a lot of big title PS3/Xbox games out there.

oh my god. memories. Played this with my father. The atmosphere was excellent. And the sounds, aahh.. amazing game.
Oh, the golden days.. sight. When I die, my heaven consists of eternal summer holiday + amiga 500 + Hired Guns.

I knew some kid who used to play this in the morning when everyone else was a asleep.
Those were the best days in his life apparently.

This is what its all about! Atmosphere 2da max. A modern remake wouldnt do the original justice.
