Ahh, the nostalgia. I remember playing this with a friend on his screaming 486 DX4 back in the 90's (btw, anyone remember the crazy prices of multimedia hardware back then? I vividly recall his father bought him a Sound Blaster 16 packaged with a 4x CD-ROM for about 500$. Brrr...). It was a fun game then, and I was stunned with the visuals and the gameplay when I tried it for the first time. Come to think of it now, it was extremely linear and heavily scripted, you could die some stupid scripted deaths, and sometimes the air sequences were a real mess (it took us a while to find out that the plane could roll), but at that time it felt like the holy grail of gaming. Also, it actually introduced cover-based combat years before Gears of War.
Oh, and this was Russian version that has somehow made its way into Bulgaria. I learned that "digitalizing" is translated in Russian as "оцифровка". And they same video games are a loss of time ;)
