Midwinter 2

DOS - 1992

Midwinter games are good but difficult action/strategy/resource management epics that didn't do well because of the confusing game interface. Had Singleton paid more attention to the interface and overall integration of disparate elements, this series would have been a winner. Still, those patient enough to learn the games' interface will be rewarded with a compelling spy adventure that combines the adrenaline rush of James Bond movies with resource management and a richly detailed 3D gameworld.

Definitely two of the more successful cross-genre games ever made.

Best game I owned on the Atari ST by a country mile. Open world, able to get in and take vehicles, grand strategy mixed with first person missions - how far ahead of its time was this game? Mike Singleton should be better known than Sid Meier or (definitely) Molyneaux. It's a crime that this game is not better known for what it was and what it did. To wit: at time of writing, only one other person in here has made a comment.

Best part of this game was being able to jump into moving enemy vehicles like the flying sub!
