Games Sampler

The SideWinder game pad also ships with a sampler of three Windows-95 based games, so gamers can jump right into the action. Samples of the following games are included with the game pad:
•

GEX ™ from Microsoft. This side-scrolling action game delivers strong, diverse game play and a zany story line. The game's protagonist, a wise-cracking gecko lizard named Gex, engages players in a twisted story based on themes from classic TV shows and "B" movies.
•

Time Commando from Activision. Battle time's deadliest warriors in this ultimate roving action and fighting game. Gamers master more than 40 lethal weapons and journey through nine stunning 3-D worlds, from the Prehistoric to the Future. Fight your way through time, or you're history!
•

Microsoft Marbles. Try to be the sole survivor in this fast-paced, hilariously irreverent, action-packed multiplayer game. Choose from four funky marble characters, such as the Schreckster with his sonic scream, or Bertha Burp, who traps her enemies in burp bubbles. Each character has unique offensive and defensive moves, and the first one to knock the others off the crazy 3-D playing fields wins the game. Microsoft Marbles is a sample of the full game Microsoft Manic Marbles ™ , scheduled to be available in February 1997.
