Recoil--Tank game...

[mbigna]

Years ago, I had a game that came with a 3dFX Fusion video card called Recoil. It was made by EA (I'm pretty sure), but it is no longer available from their website nor is it supported. I had given the disk to a friend years ago, but he never returned it. I was wondering if anyone out there still had it as I cannot find it on eBay or anywhere else.

It was a game about a futuristic tank that was upgradeable with powerups and such. I am sure that UT got the idea of a remote controlled nuke (UT Redeemer) from them as it was the same thing in Recoil, but years earlier.

Anyway, I would like to play it again if I could find anyone with the disk.

I think I remember that game. It was a top-down view, right? If it's the game i'm thinking of I might have it on a cd somewhere.

I think it defaulted to top down, but you could use your mouse to 'look around corners' while aiming--sort of a behind the shoulder view. You could also switch to first person (well, through the barrel) view.

It also had cut scenes where you'd view a video full of static being staged by a few punk rock type teens giving you updates on your progress.

Oh, then it's not the same game

I found a link to an old review of this. I'm still looking for anyone who might have this disk. I'd like to play it again for old time's sake!
