Note to customers: Sega no longer supports the online component of this game.

Now that Sega has proven it can bring the console to the Internet for online gaming, the company's working to stay in front of the pack. Not only can you form teams over the Internet in this human vs. alien war, you can also play with or against players who are operating networked coin-op arcade machines. By the time the game is fully finished, Sega says players will be able to communicate via real-time voice chat during gameplay. You can choose to operate the alien biomech units against the humans, or you can defend earth as a tank commander in one of three different styles of real-world tanks--the M1A1 Abrams, Merkava, and the M-109. --Porter B. Hall

4.0 out of 5 stars SIMPLE, June 13, 2002

By	"maxpayne47" (Illinois) - See all my reviews

This game is very good. The gameplay is simple. You get to be either the ARMY side or the ALIEN side. I choose the ARMY more becuase they have more armor and their faster. I WANT TO HOOK THIS UP 2 A PHONE LINE SO I CAN PLAY ONLINE. I want to play on line SO BADLY! I got this cool microphone and I wanted to use it for voice chat. Get this game if you have a phone line hooked up to your system.

5.0 out of 5 stars Elegant gameplay, August 14, 2001

By A Customer

This is what arcade games are about, and Sega is the best at it. The gameplay is easy to grasp without being too simple. The action is fast without being disorienting and confusing. It's a great looking game with top notch graphics. I love that you can choose to be the army defending the earth or the aliens invading it. The vehicles move very uniquely so you're not just trading paintjobs when you pick different vehicles. This is one of the best games for the Dreamcast.
