Fight your way through time or you’re history!

Play a fantastic action-adventure title with a unforgettable plot with today's release of [url=http://www.gog.com/en/gamecard/time_commando]Time Commando for only $5.99! An advanced virus has infiltrated a top secret military research facility's supercomputer. The computer can simulate any combat from any period throughout history, but it's such a powerful computer that the virus has created a vortex that threatens to tear a hole in the very fabric of time. Your job is to suit up, travel through time, and prevent the virus from destroying the universe. A good antivirus program could have prevented this threat to the universe, but now that the virus is assaulting the fabric of reality, it has all come down to you.

You are Stanley Opar, a member of S.A.V.E (Special Action for Virus Elimination), an organization that was created to clear the system of the virus. You must travel through many of the historical eras that the supercomputer simulates while using a wide array of weapons (from stones to samurai swords, slings to laser rifles, and a killer yo-yo) to fight through time and collect data bits scattered over the various worlds to repair the damage done.

Time Commando is an action adventure with a little bit of puzzles here and there. Graphically the game was very advanced for the 1990s with beautifully rendered 2D backgrounds coupled with the vivid 3D animated characters. The control scheme takes the best elements out of the Alone in the Dark series and improves upon them.

Grab yourself some action-adventure brawling action for only $5.99!

I remember a game of the same name being released on the Playstation 1; it was a beat-'em-up. Is this the same game?
I definitely prefer the other box art.

I remember playing the demo of this.

It brings back memories of early 3D games wanting to be cinematic, despite the tech available at the time. But as awkward as some of these games looked and often controlled, it was like a glimpse into the future of gaming, and what would eventually be possible to do.
I owned it (still do, somewhere), wow, 15 years ago... The backgrounds are pre-rendered with a static scrolling perspective so the engine can focus on the 3D characters. I remember the animation being *very* smooth and the game very short. It had to be, because I was actually able to beat it (unusual for me back then). Still, it was a fun game to play... I'm really surprised so few people heard of it. It was published by Activision in the US, and I saw it everywhere at the time...

Maaaan, this was my favorite game when I was a teen. I finished it at least three times, and always replayed the western setting, which is amazing. I love the Hitchcock cameo on the WW2 set.
When LBA was announced on GOG, I thought: YAY, ADELINE, WHEN ARE THEY GOING TO RELEASE TIME COMMANDO??? So yeah, instabuy for me.
Eww whats with this box art? Is this another one of those American ones that are god awful? I don't remember that image at all. Will defiantly be revisiting this old classic :)
I had hoped for something more memorable,

I hated this game but cant remember why...

I guess ill buy it to remind myself somewhere along the way
I've never heard of this game before. I prefer the original box art, but I can understand having a new one. The one thing I like about the new box art is that you can actually see the characters face. Other than that, when I look at it I don't think "time" I think "space" and "astronaut" and "ball of light". The original artwork didn't exactly portray "time" either, but it did give a sense of going into the unknown and how dangerous this journey would be.
OMG!!!

One of my favorite games of my childhood! I always wanted to play it again but didn't remember the name of it.

Thanks GOG!
I was expecting something else (better) . Passing .
hard to be the first game after a long holiday sale, will pass for now and enjoy my Christmas purchases.
wonderful pearl of the past times,thank you sooo much GOG!!!!
