I still remember the cheat codes. I had so much fun playing GA with my friends. Time sure does fly.

I played this a lot with my best friend growing up. I have fading memories of playing this all night during sleepovers.
It’s really cool to see this.
I actually tried to purchase this IP from its current owner (at the time about 8 or so years ago), who IIRC used to be a CFO or some other financial executive at 3DO. He was a nice guy, but we didn't agree on the value of the IP.
I think its really strange that they are only re-releasing on exactly the same platform. I can only imagine this means all the source code is completely lost, and the IP owner has no interest in selling or something.
I think a remaster with online multiplayer could be a lot of fun. Like the arcade version of World of Tanks.
Is love to hear more about the negotiation process.

Another case for emulation as preservation. The hardware to play the games will eventually be lost.
Must capture the enemy Queenlord!
Just put it on the switch and/or steam! My old group of friends that played it would so go for it again, it would be a blast!
The ads for this game on TV were hilarious. I remember playing this all the time. Wonder why they are releasing now? They gonna pull a battlezone and make a new game?
Could be because the Analogue 3D comes out soon which might increase the N64 player base.
I remember the first game having janky controls and being generally unfun.
I also remember Global Assault basically fixing every problem I had with the first game and being an absolute blast to play.
BattleTanx is extremely naff, but I always have a good time with it. I grew up with the PlayStation version, which runs ridiculously slowly; N64, on the other hand, feels a bit too fast!
