Well, the first time I ever got to play this game, was with a demo cover cd from a brittish games mag back in 95, my now dusty and very slow 486 DX33, with a double speed external cd-rom drive... sweet memories hehe... I thought this game was going to be a cool one, judging by it looks... well... again, I learned the lesson, never judge a book by it's cover...

The 2-and-a-half-D graphics were ok by the time, kind of the same stuff seen in Duke Nukem 3D, VGA 320x340, or SVGA, but at fairly less detail, kind of bitmapped objects, some interaction with the scenario, great backgrounds and some nice areas, but nothing that special...

The gameplay, the hard part to shallow of this FPS, a real shame... the first time I tried to pull out my gun at the subway station, a cop shooted at me... mmmmmmm... nice... but that's among the few things worthy to mention and worthy to recall... tekwar is more of the same, and brought nothing new to the FPS genre. Not that is a bad game, just not good enough to keep you interested during your lunch time...

music, sounds effects, nothing special too. Just music to keep the pace of the action, some weird gun shots, and that's it for me...

In overall, the difference between Duke Nukem 3D, the game to beat at the time, and this game, is a fair simple one... Duke Nukem 3D was Duke Nukem 3D, Tekwar was a Doom-clone rather boring, period...

a mediocre performer, deserves a 5

By HighWire - Apr 15 2006 - 19:51 This one actually had something cool to offer for it's engine (BUILD engine, same as Duke) such as civilians and policemen who would walk around minding their own business until you pull your gun, and they all go crazy like "Don't shoot me!" and stuff... It's just the crappy level design. Some levels look decent, while others... Nevermind.
