    15:36 Are you sure this game is from 1996? It looks like something from the first half of 2000's. I mean it looks better than Quake 2, and Q2 was released in 1997.

      100% sure. The footage is not though. ;) Batman... I mean Bruce made an error during editing, and it kinda stayed like it. I'd fix it, but my viewers are not very keen on any re-uploads. xD

      @@OldAndNewVideoGames Hah, I was like "Area 51 ... these graphics are unbelievably good for a 1996 FPS! How do I not remember ever hearing about it?"

I mean, to be clear I have nothing against it whatsoever, I'm just genuinely curious cause I've noticed few months ago that some of my unpublished videos get views. Once again, I really have nothing against it, just need to solve this mystery for my mind's sake ;)

    Finally. After watching hours and hours of DOS and Windows games I finally found the one I was looking for: Deadlock. I played this at my cousin's house once and never got another chance and couldn't remember what it was called. That was almost 30 years ago and I've been on a quest ever since trying to find some old screenshot or video of the game. There's one other game I've been searching for though, it's a space simulation game where you have a little space ship you can travel between worlds with, harvesting their resources and fighting enemy ships, pretty sure it was a Windows game. Oh and also I've been looking for an futuristic space RTS game with space ships for all the units.
