Hey guys, looking for a little help finding a game.
Unfortunately I cannot remember much, but this is what I recall:
It's a real time TPP game which I think was going to pan out to become some action game with heavy RPG elements.
Basically you play as some dude in blue armor and in the beginning you shoot these really large bugs with your pistol. I also recall there being a cave. The shooting system reminds me a lot of Fallout (1-2) except that it's real time. But you get a very similar looking red crosshair when you hover the mouse over the enemy. I suppose the character's armor also looked a little like power armor. I recall the interface being red.

I only played it for about 10min - after the little beginning area you come to what I think was a city. There were two guards outside with large guns and you had to talk to them to get in. I got this game off a friend apparently one of the files was missing, leading my game to crash just as I attempted to enter the city. You could also attack the guards but they'd kill you very quickly.

It's not much to go on, but does anyone know what I'm raving out?

That is the one!

It obviously looks worse than I remember. Is it worth playing?

Was it Harbinger?

I played that game over a decade ago. I don't think I finished it... Not that memorable. But back then I was hoping for more action from a game with "Assassin" in the title...

Simon got it, it's definitely Perfect Assassin!

Reviews seem lukewarm and it appears to have pretty much disappeared from the internets, so probably far from smashing... Eh.
A DOS game I've never heard of? Now I must play it.
