Description

The last global showdown. The last name in action. Apocalypse is an over-the-top third-person action game starring film star Bruce Willis as Trey Kincaide. It features furious, action-packed gameplay, non-stop special effects and explosions, full 3D player control and immersive game environments. A fearsome force of unmatched evil approaches an unsuspecting future Earth: Death, Plague, War, and Beast. The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse are upon us and only the most reckless lone wolf will risk facing evil this insidious. Only a trash-talking, pistol-packing Bruce Willis, as renegade Kincaide, can survive the mother of all showdowns.

Features:

Hard-core console action: a powerful mix of pulse rifles, flame throwers and grenade launchers provide the offense as you explore full 3-D, expansive environments loaded with hidden areas, power-ups and dozens of hard-hitting opponents.

Bruce Willis alter ego: You're playing as Bruce Willis' cyberscanned and motion-captured form, with the voice of Bruce backing you up, cheering you on every step of the way: Bruce will talk back to you, pointing out danger ahead, boost your trigger-happy mood, and kick your butt if you fall down on the job!

Cinematic gameplay: a computer-controlled roving camera delivers over­the­shoulder, top-down, free-roaming, side-on and tracking views. Picture­in­picture­like streaming of FMV is displayed on large TV screens in the levels during gameplay. Beautiful cut scenes are seamlessly integrated with the game.

Flawless controls, with full analog Dual-Shock support: Feel the weapons pulsing in your hand, explosions rocking your body, and bullets tearing your flesh! Control Bruce with D-pad and buttons, or use both analog joypads to fluidly control his movement and aim.

High-resolution graphics: In your face, 30 frames per second at 512x240 pixels of the crispest software MIP-mapped, dynamically subdivided polygons, virtually eliminates texture distortion and pixellization. Nothing ever looked this good on the Playstation.

Advanced dynamic and static lighting: See Bruce get lit by explosions and muzzle flashes. Hide in shadows as Bruce blends into the darkness.

Hierarchical animation/single-skin hybrid technology: The combination of hierarchically animated and single-skin continuous mesh defined characters allows for flawless characters with stretching skins and without ugly seams between limbs.

Uninterrupted level streaming: CD Streaming system allows for continuous spooling of infinitely large levels without interruption in frame rate.

Out-of-this-world effects: Advanced particle and physics subsystems provide for breathtaking explosions, weapon effects, smoke trails, and other special effects.

Sophisticated artificial enemy intelligence: Battling enemies using AI of unprecedented depth, will keep you at the limit of your ability.

To be released Christmas 1998, the game has already caused quite a stir. Here's what the press has said about it so far:
