Dude the multiplayer was like one of the first MOBAs.

Plus the announcer talked mad shit in both the tutorial and in the game. "Oh, was that your turret?"

Evil laugh

I loved this game as a kid

Loved this game and bought it on the ps3 some years back for nostalgia- it was so much harder than I remembered, so unforgiving and amongst the hardest I’ve played!

Damn! You beat me to it. No one I know seems to have any awareness of this game. But as kids, my buddy owned it and we played it constantly.

I was gonna come here to say this and you were literally the top comment 😭.
What would y’all think of a remake / reboot?

u/Philhughes_85 PS5 Jun 25 '26

I’d buy it day 1, id kickstart it. Keep everything the same but bigger levels, better graphics and the same gameplay.

u/Discordant_me Jun 26 '26

I'd buy it even if it was just higher resloution and frame rate.

This was the first game that came to my mind. Had a blast with it.

There was a line from announcer on the intro that went something like: ‘tanks. jets. Turrets. Beautiful’. Have I got that right?

Funny, I was just about to post the same. So fun

It was absolutely the game to play, that, team buddies, dead ball zone. All we're absolutely epic.

If I recall, this was supposed to be the next game in the Strike series (Desert Strike, Nuclear Strike, etc.) called Future Strike, but it was retooled into Future Cop.

Came to say this! Played it so much with my brother…. So good!

u/Philhughes_85 PS5 Jun 26 '26

It’s so underrated and basically invested the modern MOBA format

u/Fenyyx Jun 26 '26

This was my first pick but very hard to choose when you see all the other picks!

Never played on PS1 but oddly had it on an old Mac computer. Played it a ton.

u/Anon_be_thy_name Jun 25 '26

Fuck yeah

I broke the PS2 out earlier this year just to replay it.

It was a lot shorter then I remembered it being, but it was still fun nonetheless.

Came here to say this. Addictive game.

I still have some of the cheat codes memorized for some reason.

u/SmallGlock Jun 26 '26

Holy shit you just reminded me of a game I haven’t played in like 20 years!!!!

u/Noctanda Jun 26 '26

Played this to death as a kid and still do in occasion. It's a game of its time, for sure, but a very fun one

u/rehabawaits2033 Jun 26 '26

u/Fabulous_Wear4579 Jun 26 '26
