Terminator 2029, The Bethesda Softworks 1992

The year 2029: you fight in the ruins of Los Angeles (and other locations later) against hordes of robots. You are well-equipped, not like described in the movie. You are wearing a combat suit which enables you to carry lots of useful things like weapons, computers and armour. Because of the equipment you are similar to the enemy robots. You have to count on your equipment and often need to repair it on your own. The environment is kept gloomy. You walk in the environment in a 3D view similar to Eye Of The Beholder, which is not 3D really, but some sort of "boxed walking-area" . The benefit was that it could be played on all not so modern systems in those times without having low FPS graphics. Aiming was done very precisely using the mouse. Enemies were drones, H/K's, Terminators and infiltrators, for example. In some levels there are infiltrators as well as human resistance members, which were hard to tell apart. When shooting a human he dies, but when shooting an infiltrator, his skin bursts, showing some of his metal inside. Conclusion: Terminator 2029 was my introduction to the 3D genre - i liked it a lot and like to remind myself of it.
