The name of the game was something fairly generic but I couldn't tell you what it was (shocker, I know).Įdit for paranoia - it was Operation Blockade. For all I know the game was never released, only a demo, but I'd like to find it. Its graphics were fairly primitive for the time but better than Beach Head 2000. Other details: I played a demo of this from a PC Gamer (UK) cover disc sometime between 20. The player cannot move, only swivel to shoot. Landing craft would arrive and soldiers would advance on the bunker. The player's bunker has weaponry for each enemy type - a cannon of some sort for ships, a pair of AA guns for planes (I seem to recall a spider sight), and a very puny sounding SMG (it looked like a fairly crap Thompson Submachine Gun). Notable gameplay mechanics: Enemies of different types attack from land, air, and sea.

You also have a handgun to use as a last-ditch defense. Your turret is equipped with a machine gun, a howitzer cannon, and guided surface-to-air missiles. in a new era of electronic entertainment and sparked the home video game revoluti.

You view the beach from a first-person perspective and aim using the mouse. Players can head to the city wall and man stationary or train turrets to defend the city from the relentless assault by Musso-Kahn and his army of death. The graphics were fairly primitive compared to other games of the era giving the title a low budget feeling. In BeachHead 2000, you're a lone turret gunner defending a stretch of beach that's under siege. The Beachhead 2020 VR world would not be complete without the clean, simple, heart-pounding action that made the Beachhead game series so famous and beloved by millions worldwide.

Graphics/art style: The player mans a World War 2 bunker and can pan left and right to see the whole beach head (but not all of it at once).
