Bethesda's second Terminator game, this time it's a grid-based tactical real-time game that meshes Mechwarrior with Dungeon Master of all things. The general music and presentation are both stellar, but the gameplay is tricky to say the least! A largely forgotten game, this title will be remembered for having a very young Todd Howard on Quality Assurance. Lawnie forgets his weapons, but eventually gets the hang of the combat and loadout, only to get swarmed and die. An intriguing title!
