Cool. I belive it's a Glide game so when I switch back to my voodoo5 pc maybe this is what I'll play.
It's also an incredibly beloved game, so if the Glide version doesn't work out well for you, you can play it on a modern system with enhancements. Also, be warned that the UI and scopes don't fully scale past a certain resolution.
Believe it or not I remember when it came out back in the day, just never got around to it 😁. I have heard it's a great game though, and for me the only way to do a great game justice is play it on an authentic build, even better if it's 3dfx!
Yeah, I first played it on my P4 rig under 98SE a little over half a year ago. Like a lot of older games, I started playing it for an hour-ish, then didn't touch it for months/years. Came back to it, and got hooked, and quickly played through the rest of it. That playthrough was godly. Such a memorable experience. I then recently installed it on my main rig and patched it with Kentie's executable and DX10 renderer. Not as memorable as the first time, but I had a lot of fun still, and found out just how imperfect the game is (for example, in the Airforce Base mission, there's a power box that you can toggle on/off for a quest, and every time you do so you get XP, even after you've already done it. Thus, you can keep toggling it on/off until you max out every single skill in your skill-tree (yep, broken). But man, do you feel like a god afterwards. 😀 I don't know if other quest-events are also exploitable, probably.
Oh, and of course the memes are godly, too:
