Battlezone 98 Redux

The difference, however, is Battlezone is technically superior, and has more RTS elements better married to FPS/TPS whereas Uprising relies on capturing fixed locales limiting what you can build/where, and you're stuck in the FPS/TPS perspectives to do everything in).

It does have a learning curve, but the campaign missions are scaled very well.

While they made a sequel, Battlezone II: Combat Commander, I always preferred the original because the graphics had a smoother, silky-smoother, fluid, and graceful look, the design and art style was better - with a more rustic 1950s military in space-look.

The UI, voice lines, sountrack, controls and physics make the game super immersive - and the variety of vehicles, facilities, buildings and weapons grant the player a sheer endless amount of options and therefore replayability.

The game also features multiplayer which was easy then, and now to use, in that it takes you to a lobby and you can start a game or join a game.

You command your forces from your view with the "smart" pointer, so when you look at a unit or building, a menu on the side with numbered-key for commands (1-9 and 0) appear with things you can tell it to do, or select what it thinks you're going to do, and order it around or to build something, etc.
