SkyNET Trailer

[@RayhouseProductions]

Ah man, the graphics might be dated but the gameplay still rocks! This had so much detail and so many features that modern day sci-fi shooters don't have. The game had such a bleak and run-down atmosphere in it, which perfectly portrays the future world seen in the first two films.

[@pandahsykes602]

Ms dos was such a breakthrough of video game technology , open world mechanic laden games that came out so early in the 90s still blow my mind today.

[@standardbearer]

It' great how all the characters seem to feel the rhytm:)

[@Windows95]

Like the title says, Skynet. MS-DOS game by Bethesda (known for Elder Scroll series) over 12 years ago.

[@Durandlgames]

This game along with future shock and Daggerfall have to be remade

[@LukeLovesRose]

Does anyone remember the original, original Terminator computer game?? OMG! We've come sooo far since then.

[@KakashiBallZ]

Imagine just how far games have come...

[@JonathanDhaene]

Needs a 2014 remake!

[@egyptianspaceodin1373]

god fuck yes

[@MrStrangermoon]

+Egyptian Space Odin tr liceance not on bethesda now and they switch for fallout.

[@kelteel]

Or a 2021 remake. At least we have Terminator Resistance.

[@Waxer3929]

Actually, you're right. The heavy machine gun is in the dream sequence during the Resistance shelter fight. The infiltrator does, technically use a heavy machine gun, a German model to my knowledge, but it's intended to be the Laser Cannon, as used in Skynet. Coincidentally, the T-800 uses the Heavy Machine gun in Terminator 3, but obviously Skynet came out before that. I just thought they sound alike. Yeah, an HD version would be nice, maybe with some online multiplayer as well.

[@budi0251]

just like what spongebob has taught me, "Imagination" is one of the game requirements/\.

[@Skynet_the_AI]

Yes.... you know. I know.

[@xzxxx-km4vy]

This channel and all these comments are relics of the internet

[@tea84g]

dam i had the demo back in the day, just kept playing it again and again! brings back memories, they gotta make a new game!

[@KazutoSAO47]

holy crap i remember playing this ages ago

[@Jesusmcjimmy]

This game was and still is really good. Excellent storyline, adrenaline pumping gameplay and brilliant graphics once upon a time. If they remade this game, it would be the best!

[@Strejferen]

This is the best Terminator-game I've ever played - even though it's 16 years old. I like how the weapons and most of the robots are all taken from the movies (even though some of them are only mentioned but not seen). I liked the full motion video-introductions to each level. It was so cool to the get instructions from John Conner himself, and see Kyle Reese as a kid sitting next to him. I remember the sound of the terminators were so scary for me at the time (I was also just a kid).

[@l4vl4v39]

21 Square Enix employees disliked the video. "Too much gameplay footage and not enough cutscenes for a trailer." they said.

[@Waxer3929]

I actually felt the same way about this game. I must have had so many nightmares as a result of playing this. The sounds and just general atmosphere was so intense at the time. It is nice to see how far Bethseda has come and that even now, as seen in Fallout, they still implement the post-apocalyptic feeling like they did in Skynet and Future Shock. I will say that for the weapons, a lot of them are from the movies but also from Aliens, such as the scanner and heavy-machine gun.

[@P0ttedMeat]

I've played ALL the fps since a friend gave me Wolf 3d on a single floppy WAY back in the day. My whole group of friends thought Skynet was WAY ahead in a lot of ways. It had its glitches but there were things you could do in the multiplayer that other games weren't even close to. It's the first game I ever remember having vehicles that could be piloted. We had an absolute blast with this game at our LAN parties. We all feel Skynet was very underrated at the time. Awesome, awesome game!

[@Strejferen]

I think the heavy machinegun is in the first movie as well: in the dream Kyle has after having escaped the police station. In that dream of the future a terminator shows up disguised as a man killing everyone in a rebel base with the machine gun. Most noticable he shoots a couble of dogs as well. But wow, it would be cool if Bethesda made a game like this with todays graphics. Have never played a terminator game since, that had such a great atmosphere.

[@SkaterK3]

The terminator music just kicks that game trailer up 10 notches in my book. The music from terminator rocks, but to put it to the terminator game, awesome.

[@penprop01]

hard to believe this was only 10 years ago now games look so real thats it unbelievable.

[@abbernomad]

10 years ago this was state of the art. Bethesda was a company that introduced Daggerfall to the masses. The scope of these two games were way beyond other games of the time. I played this game through so many times. You don't think the game is old or lacking as you play it. Performance is better than most games today. Fast load times, freakish action, intensly scary. A true current comparison would be OBLIVION, which may seem amazing now, but 10 years from now, kids will think it's primitive.

[@tom8008135]

lol - graphics have improved so much now. I love the way the thing in the air blows up at 1 minute in and the running at 1 min 20 ha ha...

[@Helderhugo]

@vjanik You are absolutely right. I am searching for older games because of that, not just my computer is geting too old for the new games.

[@Akselmoi]

Its awesome how much graphics are changed... In -96 it was like this (And im sure that these graphics were in -96 very good!) And now in 2009 they are pretty lifelike.

[@GaryLiao]

They need to remake this game on a modern game engine :P

[@elliottwaxer]

It is perhaps one of the only highly enjoyable terminator games around. I remember this game back when I was in 4th grade in 1996 and not only was I intrigued, but scared from all the high pitched sounds and enemies like the raptor. There were so many places to go in each level, check out old terminator movie spots and go into random buildings, so barren yet so enjoyable.

[@KidKobun]

LOL you like that? ;3 Its nice to see someone who remembers classics like that.

[@superzario1000]

READ IF YOU HAVE TROUBLE RUNNING. The game was made for DOS, so if you want to play it on your modern computer you need to use an emulator. I recommend dos box.

[@KidKobun]

That's awesome. I didn't really know that much about FPS back then outside of Wolfenstien and Doom. Oh and Faceball 2000

[@biggerflexible]

You are not alone.

[@erewhonable]

@R1ddic Sorry not sure. Only ever played with a max of 4 players and predominantly 3.

[@floxhoa]

Hufffffffff -___- I lost that cd rom with Skynet : Futur Shock!!!. Hey d'u remember that the moon was falling when we were emptying our machine gun charger on it? ;-)

[@cmdrreggit]

oh the memories! kzbin.info/www/bejne/f5u5YYuCd62gp9E

[@AvgasStew]

hey i remember this - was actually quite scary to play in the middle of the night. it was great.......sounded scary when you heard a T800 walking around after you

[@Squad2ND]

This game was more loyal to the movies than T3 or T4 ever was. "A stolen nuclear missile"... awesome story, and nice atmosphere!

[@R1ddic]

@erewhonable Didn't the LAN implementation had a bug that when you had more than 4 players some could either not see one another or couldn't do any damage? I loved that game, LAN and single player :)

[@KiwiDude7]

My how far gaming has come...

[@robertban871]

that Bethesda-Jank goes all the way back

[@dAJKhun]

simply awsome ! :)

[@erewhonable]

Still have it. Multiplayer over IPX was always fun. 8 Player lanfests..... and only 1 game cd needed per 3 players was a winning idea. @vjanik - good rant :-) because it's so true.

[@Mrster]

This, together with TIE-Fighter would really be awesome if remade.

[@seangames111]

woah check out those graphics!

[@Recycled]

I got a paper brochure for this game with my copy of Daggerfall. It looked Soooo cool, but I think my computer was too slow or something. Never got around to it. :-P

[@TaeggyWoW]

@vjanik You're right. Minecraft is very old and even today alot of people play it!

[@FrankieTattak]

same exact situation as you. never beat and im trying to download it somewhere

[@KidKobun]

Well if you are saying that a game from '96 isn't old then it makes sense, but I consider a game from '96 to be old...well, older. ;3

[@syphrus23]

I wish this game was remade compatible to XP and Vista. I keep getting an error just by clicking on the icon.

[@MaxForce357]

Damn, I love this game! The were other Terminator FPS games for DOS. Rampage, Future Shock and SkyNET are the best!

[@xzxxx-km4vy]

Don't mind me, just replying to a 14 year old comment.

[@ExploringBeyond]

I can tell that these models are very impressive. This reminds me of their next game which is utilizing the best of the latest shader software, physX engine, and polycount is over ninethousand per character! This game will be the most epic game of all time! It shall be called... Duke Nukem Forever-- COMING SOON! circa 1997 ok it's late, i should go to bed now >_>;

[@EpicRAWRRR]

@bughunter801 That's not really true. Once games hit a high enough definition our eyes wouldn't be able to tell the difference, and its already close enough that it's probably going to be within ten years that it happens.

[@Mobius4077]

oh hell ya that part at :21 when the robot looks up at the missle is creepy.

[@Xegethra]

@MadsterV hmm, i think i just might. thanks

[@Jomster777]

Bethesda should remake this in their new engine...

[@Mwgedd]

Man, this game was fucking awesome.

[@nederwiet1]

I liked the grim atmosphere,it was a great game!

[@warrax111]

So from this you can see, that less is enough to satisfy one.

[@KidKobun]

Yeah, and when do you think that this game came out...? Protip: Look in the video description.

[@Waxer3929]

I'm still trying to get some DOS player to play this game, I have both games, that being Skynet and Future Shock. Both great games although Future Shock has like.. gazillion more levels and is way more epic. The game still haunts me to the core since I first played it when I was 10, ever now and then I have some crazy dream like the ones Sarah Conner has. Anyways, a great game. Someday I'll record, write a review, and even write a walkthrough to the game so it shall hopefull be remembered.

[@djr067]

this and future shock best computer games period

[@tupello9]

God I remember this game- it was so cool. I remeber wasting away good summers days and nights playing this game. There is just something about a urban waste land filled with robots that apeals to me... for some reason!

[@Skynet_the_AI]

....hmmm you remember? Im barely starting...

[@xzxxx-km4vy]

Well hello there.

[@kryps1]

That looks like the Quake engine!

[@kujahhhhaaaaaaaaaaa]

This game is great. I have played it but the windows xp is not compatible so the game crashes randomly.I hope they will remake this game for iPhone 4.

[@Xegethra]

@kujahhhhaaaaaaaaaaa yeah i have both this and future shock, but my pc is too new to play them. i would use dos box, but that thing hates running for me and i can never get it working. its a shame, i have the proper cd games too from way back

[@badassninja33]

@vjanik Halo is a beautiful exception to your statement

[@abbernomad]

The precurser to this was The Terminator: Future Shock. You need Skynet, as it has improvements for Future Shock. Bethesda has a thing for games on a massive scale. No shitty actors in FS. :) These gams will scare the FUCK out of you. If you can get past the limited graphics, this game will really blow you away. I loved playing it.

[@Muielamanelisti]

Min. specs : Intel Core i7 3000 Mhz 4 Gb DDr3 2x GTx 400 ========== Recomended: Intel Pentium 1 300 Mhz 32 Sdram 4 Mb video card

[@Drunjk]

amazing game i wish it wasnt fucking impossbile to get working on this pc. they should totally do a remake.

[@bughunter801]

in 15 years, the games today will look just as pixelated unless skynet kills us all first

[@KimTyroneAgapito]

Your vid is a favorite on Liberia

[@bastian149]

Both, it was team multiplayer.

[@alciadanet]

what's with the knees

[@petexn7573]

All the comments are from nearly a decade ago and I am here in 2022 to put on the record that this was the last good Terminator game

[@PolymerJones]

haha yeah man totally. i played the demo and got stuck and had no idea where to go.. the controls were hard cuz it was mouselook before its time

[@zyriuz2]

FPS, that is really what terminator games should be like, we dont want 3rd person terminator games we want to be a solder of the future hiding underneath the surface of the dust from the nuclear war hiding to get the right chance to throw a grenade to blow up that huge terminator on tank wheels :P

[@jmpoder]

y los vertices y los triangulos y los mapeos de texturas, etc

[@Direwolf56]

well i really like the music

[@soviet_idiot]

Wow, I bet this game was like the Crysis graphics of it's time.

[@EnergyCourtier]

FACEBALL 2000 FTW!

[@simardbrad]

you mean the ones in Halo look similar to these ones. This game came out long before Halo.

[@JamesBantz]

@lordzilu1584 Maybe when they sell a few million elder scroll V games they can buy it back :)

[@Sidewayz455]

hehe still have that damn game, hell the sequel too. Imho the best terminator based game ever. Too bad it has an argument with xp and modern pc's

[@Jshaw71]

the sega saturn was a superior peice of hardware compared to the ps2, the problem was the programmers had trouble programming it, for whatever reason, and the download fall of the saturn began as tons of machines sat on stores shevles and games were left unfinished

[@rjc0234]

ou know a game is old when the cutscrnr graphics are worse than ingame graphics today. i wish i had this game

[@thegrasshopper9636]

Este juego lo hizo skynet ? u:

[@luisvillegas4863]

Jajaja tu si te mamaste pendejo, es de Beteshda xD

[@RedheadMetalC]

everything is like lego,

[@246trinitrotoluene]

i hope my computer can handle this

[@acidus404]

First 3D FPP Game

[@JamesBantz]

Bethesda should make another terminator game after they finish Brink and TES V

[@MrUberguber]

they need to remake this with the fallout 3 engine

[@Mastersun88]

They need to remake this game with better graphics this game would be cool if it had better graphics and by the way I never heard of this game.

[@Jshaw71]

bethesda nade this game? cool, too bad theres not an updated version out there somewere... thanks for the video, looks like fun,

[@CloudStrifeThe1st]

They did. It's called Fallout 3 LOL No, seriously, they should remake this. Looks good

[@ElSombra94]

i have the game and its pretty hard but good graphics for a old game!

[@sheperd09]

LOL! ''i hope my computer can handle this'' HAHAHAHA! Good one!

[@JayRay92]

whoa it requires 8mb of ram.... I need to upgrade. but this was a great game. still is.

[@johnnyswitchblade]

Old game. Is it any good?

[@sharpe9216]

bloody hell, just think that just over 10 yrs ago games n graphics looked lik this! almost everythings is square! still good games tho :)

[@RossiDelPiero]

Can you get this on 360 or ps3?

[@rbaleksandar]

He's obviously a guy who doesn't play retro... btw The game is awesome.

[@oskulock]

@IanasAnd I GET IT RUNNING WITH MY RIG! XDDD
