What I remember most about the game was being able to destroy buildings and cars and that awesome title screen song I can still hum by heart. Played it on the Nintendo 64, still love it.
I may have played Global Assault before I borrowed this game from a friend over 20 years back. But I prefer the story and art in this one, even if the gameplay in global assault in an improvement. I hope GoG gets both of these games ported to modern computers and other hardware because emulation is quite a bit broken with these games.
