I seem to remember using xray vision in the beginning of the game to prevent the bridge from blowing up. Then all we had to do was nab the crooks. We used to cream the neighbors times, of course we cheated so looking back it doesn't feel so good.

Would the second game be Maximum Force? I've seen Area 51 packaged with maximum force in the same machine before.

It's been years since I sat down and played Highlander so my memory is a bit sketchy, but I can offer you this. Yes Virginia, Highlander can be fun! For starters I always thought this was one of the best looking Jag titles out there. The controls are a bit sluggish and sometime the camera angles get in the way but it is definitely possible to enjoy this game. First and most important you MUST HAVE the Memory Track so that it is possible to save your progress. Yes, you need to kill the bad guys but sometimes it isn't necessary or worth it to do so. I can't help you musch more than this other than the fighting in the beginning is largely based on timing your hits with the comps. I figured out a neat jump, punch combo that seemed to be pretty nifty. You should get a decent weapon early on ( I cant remember if it was the sword or not... but it was just after leaving the burned out village on your way up the mountain) I guess I'm not much help after all....
