I have been waiting for so long to see this game again! It was the very first CD dad bought, and nobody knew a word in English (this happening in rural Russia) so not much of an idea what was happening, and yet - it was a truly breathtaking game. It's hard to imagine now but the graphics were so innovative with the pre-rendered 3d, that family and friends gathered to watch the into movie. When I was an adult I found and played Cryo's masterpiece properly, and I must say, it still holds water. Yeah, at some point you get to repetitively build bases across the globe to fight the Tyrants, but everything else - the universe, the soundtrack, the original story, totally worth playing even now.
