HELL YES! This game rocked!

It was such a great title. I mean, ok, voice support was a tad bit sketchy, but it worked great over 56K.

The maps never got old to me. It was awesome destroying Tokyo as alien invaders. Up till I played the Washington D.C. map, it had always been a goal of mine to destroy the White House in a game, and AFO delivered.

This game, and pretty much the whole Dreamcast Online game line-up showed me that you don't need broadband to have fun.

Freaking shame Alien Front and Daytona USA died an early death. Crying or Very sad

Voice chat was cool, and the game itself wasn't bad either.

I couldn't pass the game up because it was really cheap, and the big box looked nice.

I ask that question everytime i boot up the game to play. I would have like to played the game multiplayer atleast in offline mode. Drives me insane that the only way to play the game is via single player. You COULD play the game multi-player still....however...the only way to do that would be to find the game in an arcade somewhere. Since Alien Front originated from the arcades.

Oh well, single player was pretty fun. I heard online play got very laggy, and the voice chat sometimes got icky.
