Welcome once again to another PatMan Picks PC classics. This time around I will be showcasing a game by the name of Terminal Velocity. The game was a very fun, action/arcade, space ship, flight game with pretty impressive visuals for its time. It also had a pretty cool soundtrack as I remember.  This was no flight sim, it was all action arcade style fun. The action took place in several locations including the sky ,very close to the ground and even underground in tight tunnels with many obstacles that gamers needed to avoid hitting. I really enjoyed this title back in the day. The air combat was fun as you had to seek out enemy airships and destroy them. A cool feature was the ability to go above the clouds and dog fight it out way up in the sky or at other times stay low and take them out just above the ground. The gameplay wasn’t limited to air combat as you had ground targets to find and destroy, sometimes giving you power ups in the process to make things more interesting. Finally, as I mentioned earlier, you had to enter underground tunnels where you had to blast your way out with out hitting any of the doors or obstacles that moved in front of you. The inside and underground areas always reminded me a little bit of the trench run in Star Wars, which was not a bad thing at all. Speaking of Star Wars inspired levels, there is a level later on in Terminal Velocity that takes place on a “moon base” which is, with out a doubt ,VERY heavily inspired by the Death Star. There was aslo a handy map that you could pull up on the screen, but I hardly used it unless I was stuck looking for something as it kind of got in the way of the view of the action. Terminal Velocity was a fun arcade action title that I enjoyed replaying for years and yet its a PC game that many people may have all but forgotten. Hopefully this helped bring back some fond memories for some of you old school, classic PC gamers out there. Enjoy the video below and I will be back next time with more retro PC games that I once enjoyed back  in the past!
