Has anyone played this

Is it a movie licensed game

i was thinking of playing a comand a conquer type game and came across this

I was wondering if it is a real good strategy game - sure its only $5 at EB but i dont need to add games to my already significantly long list of "To play" games

edit: One reason i am asking is becasue if it has the movie score in it then ill definatly get it -- i realy liked the score and it would be interesting to try a game that uses it

The one I played was on C64, a side view shooter. And it sucked hardcore.

Avatard stated the only Platoon game I know of as well... and while I did get some joy out of it...it definitely wasn't that good.

Platoon is also a side-view shooter for the NES. I would pick up the PC version if it was new in the box, as old PC games are hard to come by, but that's just me...and I've got too much of this crap lying around LOL

Is it newer?? I never heard of it, and a license like that would seemingly be popular. :hmm:
