XF5700 MANTIS EXPERIMENTAL FIGHTER - ORIGINAL RARE BIG / SMALL BOX EDITION



Condition of Item
The cd-rom is still sealed in its case. The box though is a bit creased because there isn't a box liner. The manual, flight controls, license, registration card and leaflet are all in very good condition. The box is roughly the size of 2 dvd cases stacked on top of each other.



Game Description

Earth had no warning.

Out of nowhere, an army of insect-like creatures from a distant world, using technologically advanced space weapons, ambushed and devastated Earth. Perhaps more horrendous than the nearly three billion deaths was the portion of the remaining population that was used as host bodies for gestating alien offspring. The Fist of Earth world government was formed to defend humanity and repel the looming alien threat.

You're a member of FOE's elite fighter corps – a recruit fresh from the Academy. You've studied diligently, spent countless hours in simulations, and prepared yourself in every way possible for battle. But, until recently, the alien technology and firepower were far superior to Earth's.

Now, you've been assigned to the XF5700 Experimental Fighter (codename: Mantis). The fate of the world rests in your hands.

Complete edition: Includes the Rexum missions, voiced audio, and cinematics added for the expanded version of the game.

High-tech fighter: Sporting a shock-proof electro-luminescent HUD, Quad-Jump drives, and a sophisticated navigational system, the Mantis is the weapon Earth desperately needs.

Epic sci-fi story: CGI and full-motion videos (in all their early-90s glory) present a sweeping space drama in a vibrant futuristic setting as you progress through the game’s missions.

Awesome firepower: the Mantis comes heavily armed with Mass Driver cannons and an impressive array of missiles.

Realistic ship physics: Ship flight and movement are modelled on Newtonian physics models that give the game a distinct sense of motion.

Fearsome enemies: The Sirian insect race can form a powerful collective group mind capable of obliterating the human race. Only you can stop them.



COMPATIBILITY
This game was designed for MS-DOS and will probably also work on a later OS using a free dos emulator like DosBox, but you need to check on the game forums to find out for certain BEFORE you purchase this game. Unfortunately I'm not a compatibility expert, so I won't be able to help you.
This is a genuine PAL region PC game. I never sell fakes or copies. It will work on any computer in the world with the right set-up.
Refunds will not be given for compatibility problems. It is down to the buyer to ensure that this game will work on their computer.
