Incoming aliens! Incoming aliens! Theyve already attacked the international moonbase, and they may already have a base in the Arctic! Earth is building a huge tracking station as first part of the counterattack, but now you detect incoming aliens and they dont look friendly! Defend your base against the initial incursion by manning turret, tank, helicopter, harrier jet, and even captured alien fighter as you battle the aliens in various continents, and eventually lead the counterattack on the moon! Incoming is a 3D shooter with plenty of action. In arcade mode, you can play it as a straight shooter. Some missions have you manning an immobile turret where you simply aim at the sky and engage incoming bogeys. Other missions can have you control a ground hovertank engaging enemy ground threats. Yet other missions will have you control a helicopter, a Harrier jumpjet, and even a captured alien fighter. There are also an action mode and action-tactics mode, where you are given some limited control of other friendly units.

The racing game has always been a tough nut to crack for developers. Those seeking success must choose between ultimate realism or all-out fun. Sony Interactive's Gran Tourismo on the Playstation doesn't have the greatest graphics in the world, yet the game's solid physics engine and accurate car models captured the hearts of racing enthusiasts throughout Japan, Europe and the US. Likewise the fiery explosions and massive jumps found in Midway's San Francisco Rush caused the title to leap onto several platforms, including the PC and Nintendo64. A compromise between the two leads to mediocrity. Even though they're English, the boys at Liverpool based Rage Software are no dummies. Their upcoming title, Midnight GT Racing, will feature accurate physics and car models. Rage has already acquired licenses for the BMW M-Roadster, the Toyota Supra Turbo, the Toyota MR-2 Turbo and the Acura NSX with more to come. Each car should handle like its real world counterpart. The number of tracks that will be available in the final version is currently unknown, however Rage has developed two solid road courses to date. The finished product should have varying times of day, despite the game's title, and variable weather effects as well. If Rage Software maintains their focus on the realism of Midnight GT Racing, then they can add another notch on their bedpost of successful PC titles.
