Comanche: Maximum Overkill (DOS) 1992
First game based on voxel technology (this rendering technique allowed for much more detailed and realistic terrain compared to simulations based on vector graphics)
Gameplay video
Magazine review - Game Players (Mar, 1993)
"Visually, Comanche: Maximum Overkill is the closest thing to an official military training simulation that you can play, at least until the next
generation of hardware comes along."
Trivia:
1) Computer Gaming World 's says: "a United States Army Aviation AH-64 pilot—liked Comanche Maximum Overkill in 1993, calling it an "eye-popping glimpse into 21st-century helicopter warfare". He
stated that it created a "more believable terrain model than the Army's Combat Mission Simulator" and was the first game to replicate "the thrill of low-altitude flying". The reviewer
concluded that "cutting-edge graphics firepower gives it the edge to sweep more than a couple of competitors off the battlefield"
2) Events take place in 1999.
3) Support Roland MT-32 audio card (best computer audio synthesizer at the time).
4) For more voxel games watch Blade Runner and Outcast.
5) Emulated in: DOSBox
