Wild Metal Country

Wild Metal Country is a 3D vehicular combat game by DMA Design, the studio that later became Rockstar North. Choose one of five armoured attack vehicles and take on 17 kinds of automated war machines across the three forbidden planets of the Tehric system, recovering the power cores they have stolen. Play solo, or head-to-head in split-screen. Gremlin Interactive published the game for Windows in 1999, and a Dreamcast port called Wild Metal followed in 2000. In 2004 Rockstar Games re-released the PC version for free as part of its Rockstar Classics series.
