Thundering engines. Insane weapons. Maximum destruction. Terminal Velocity "It's a 3D vehicle shooter that's part Star Wars and Part Descent!" Computer Gaming World, March '95 Take flight in this pure action game that should come with a barf bag! Climb into Terminal Velocity now and you'll never go back to flight simulators that offer combat as an "option." Terminal Velocity IS combat! And without the difficult controls presented by all flight simulator style games. CD-ROM Version: This version has everything: 70 Megs of 3D rendered cinematics, SVGA (640 by 480) support, high resolution replacement textures (add 16 times the graphics detail!), the BONUS planet!, eight network player support, and bonus games. If you have a CD-ROM then you need to get this version. DISK Version: This version has everything except the cinematics, high resolution replacement textures, the bonus planet and the extra shareware bonus games. (If we added these things to the diskette version, we'd need to send you at least 15 disks!) Created by the former lead programmer of Microsoft Flight Simulator 5.0, Terminal Velocity features a fast frame rate, realistic outdoor environments, and the unique ability to fly through tunnels and into underground caverns. Quite simply, Terminal Velocity is all about action, speed and destruction. "This game could easily become the new king of the 3D first-person jungle of games." Strategy Plus Magazine THE TERMINAL STORY In the far future, armadas from surrounding systems have suddenly waged war on Earth. Destroying crucial installations and major cities, Earth is quickly brought to its knees. You are a pilot from the Ares Squadron, flying the fastest, most dangerous crafts ever made. Currently, you're in the TV-202, a fighter few can handle. Given that the previous model, the TV-101, has chalked up more dead pilots than any experimental craft in history, many consider you lucky to be alive. You're outgunned, outmanned, and strapped into a flying coffin. But just think how good "Saved the Known Galaxy" will look on your resume'. "The 3D environments are simply breathtaking. Utilizing cutting-edge real-time techniques, the graphics engine creates worlds that are like nothing seen before in computer games."
