One of the first conversions from the 3DO to the PC is the recent Electronic Arts Studios release: Shockwave Assault for Windows 95. The game combines the first episode and its data disk on a single CD-ROM packed with over 20 minutes of cinematic sequences.

Shockwave Assault zeigt, daß Windows 95 eine brauchbare Plattform auch für 3D-Actionspiele darstellt. Die hohe Auflösung von 640x480 Bildpunkten bei einigen tausend Farben haucht den Texturen mehr Leben ein als man von DOS-Spielen gewöhnt ist. Wenn der angeschlossene Joystick der Windows-Umgebung keine Probleme bereitet, spielt auch die gut programmierte Steuerung ihre Trümpfe aus. Ein etwas behutsamerer Schwierigkeitsgrad und eine höhere Zahl als gerade 15 Missionen hätten dem Spiel trotzdem gut getan. (-- Thomas Borovskis)

Trots sitt glassiga yttre med videosnuttar och animerade mellansekvenser är Shockwave Assault ett renodlat röjarspel. Det är tekniskt sett snyggt gjort, men någonstans under utvecklingen tappade det den "själ" som alla högoktaniga actionspel har. Nu har det bara blivit ett i mängden.

O tempo, e não os alienígenas, parecem ser o inimigo real. Em 94, o tiroteio Shockwave: Invasion Earth, da Electronic Arts, e sua seqüência Operation JumpGate foram um estrondo em versão para o videogame doméstico 3DO. Seqüências em vídeo totalmente animadas, além de paisagens texturizadas em 3D, eram o paraíso para os amantes de jogos. Agora, a Electronic Arts reuniu os dois sob o título de Shockwave Assault, e lançou-os para PC e Mac. Infelizmente, esta explosão no pequeno lago de 3DO não tem o mesmo impacto no computador.

Bei Shockwave Assault passiert zu wenig, es gibt kaum Abwechslung und technische Mängel töten auch das letzte bißchen Spielspaß ab. Da helfen auch exotische Features wie die passable Dolby-Surround-Unterstützung nicht viel.
