This game was definitely over ambitious for the time. Huge open world with vehicles and combat all in a gritty sci-fi package! Cyberpunk? No, it's Bethesda's 1991's The Terminator game for MS-DOS PC's!

I played this game on my 286 back in the day (can't remember how slow it ran compared to what we see in this video) and had no idea how to do many things including driving the cars. Today with the help of the internet I've figured out a little more of it! Backspace for Clutch? Sure! This "]" thing for Brakes? You bet! This game uses most of the keyboard and some kind of guide is highly recommended!

I'm still not sure if this is a good game or not and turns out most reviewers back in the day weren't sure either! Some liked it but many did not. Have you played this game? What did you think of it?
