While looking at another thread in this section, I was reminded of a particular game from the same era.
Of course, nothing is easy. I don't remember the name (or at least, I thought I did). Turns out the name I thought it was all this time was false, or simply long forgotten.
It was an old game, 90's era, possibly closer to mid 90's. It was for Windows 95.
It started off with a black or tanned man in some sort of hover craft going towards an oil rig. He docks inside the oil rig, and makes his way to where he was needed.
Now before I continue, the style of the gameplay was a "Press the arrow key and the guy faces a certain direction". You couldn't move him yourself, but rather only choose predetermined paths.
When he arrives to the destination, the oil rig comes under attack by some faction and he is forced to go to the defense turret. You shot down helicopters and some sort of aircraft that has turbines keeping it up.
The woman you met then comes back to you after the assault is fought off. She tasers you while kissing you (how nice eh)
You wake up attached to a chair with some grown man talking to you. For some unremembered reason, they both get into a scrap which ends with both of them dieing. You go to the body, retrieve the arm weapon (attached the the lower portion, fires bullets) you had originally and make your way to the hanger. After several shoot outs that I recall to be hard since you can't just point and shoot, you need to time when you pop out. Since it does the shooting for you, you just need to get that split second where your guy doesn't get shot.
After disarming the bomb attached to the fighter (if you didn't, you would die and restart), you take off and fly away. In the background, the oil rig blows up.
Thus begins about 9 levels or so of on rails shooting. You just control the reticule and shoot down any of those turbine aircraft thingys and whatnot that gets in your way. To be more detailed, it shoots lasers.
After blowing up a sub, flying through a tunnel, going through mountains, you finally end up in some icy area where some secret base is found.
I don't remember much, just this one elevator part where you need to lock some guy who opens up with a grenade in his hand. If you don't kill him, he shoots you. If you kill him, the grenade is activated. You run, big explosion in the hallway, you die. What you needed to do is go to the panel and line up symbols to close and lock the elevator doors. Failure to do in a quick time limit, and you die.
That sums up the description. Any ideas?
EDIT: I recall it being 3D, and made by Sierra. However, I looked at the wiki page showing the list of games they have made, and nothing came up familiar.
