Final cutscene
=== == = == ===
Narrator (Tom Baker): It ends. The great engines of destruction are crippled; the forces of human extinction, routed. You have come back from the dead, gone to hell, and given the human race back its future.
Miles from here, in another circle of the island fortress that you penetrated there are screams. The sounds of alien frustration. The sounds of a nightmare's death.
The enemy Creation Engine settles with a sigh, its foundation blasted, and gently collapses through the chill, unearthly air, into the dark sea.
Your own vessel, tested to her limits, cracks apart now, her revenant task done. The ship's Creation Engine drops through steely fathoms to grateful rest. The two live machines, still suffused with the energy of making, lie together.
And here, in the dark, something changes. The engines move closer. There is the bright, and awful spark of creation in the ocean night, terrible fire, and motion in the deep.
These are hostile waters...
=== == = == ===
In 2032, an Earth that knows only peace is forced to relearn the art of war.
Antaeus Rising combines explosive action with powerful real-time strategy. Take command of a powerful aircraft carrier/manufacturing platform. Create military units with your carrier using the most advanced nano-technology known by the modern world and lead an army against the forces of the Old World Cabal. Plan your assault from within your carrier and then enter your units for some third-person mayhem! The fate of world is in your hands, are you able to hold it?
Hostile Waters is available for purchase at Good Old Games for $5.99

this game is screaming for a goddamn sequel
This has to be one of the best games ever to fall off the radar. I still cant understand how so few knew it existed.
They unequivocally did not have to go this hard, and yet they did. This is, in my opinion, the best game ever made
Thanks for posting these cutscenes! HW was one of the best games around, and still is... I miss the times when they actually made the background stories interesting.
This game has definitely on of the best if not the best story line ever. At first you think you're fighting with old regime, but later it gets only better! Too bad there's almost no chance for sequel. Maybe in future some big fan being a game developer will put this peace of gold in motion. Thank you SkarmoryThePG for your work.
they started a remake
1:45 epicness overload. How low video games have fallen since those glorious days... How different those times were...
@Pista90000000000 A very unorthodox and very effective strategy for the last mission is to build a pair of Behemoths with Repair units, one with Longbow and one with Warhammer, and leaving them on the Antaeus' decks, and a Shark with Longbow. Then just trudge on through. The Behemoths will keep each other and the Antaeus in fighting condition, and the Shark can lend aid wherever necessary.
@TheOneLaughinBehindU You are most welcome. I enjoyed this game greatly and felt the need to share. Happy to have brought back good memories.
This game should have a part 2
Late answer is late. But if you take into account the fact how developers advertised their games years earlier, they made pictures out of their beta versions of their games and never took them down or changed them.
Hence in that picture the hornet has two weapon hardpoints even it the game it has one. The answer why it has only one in game is most likely because of balance reasons.
Two weapon mounts increase your weapon power a bit and hornet was most likely OP.
WE NEED HW2 !!!!!!!!
I demand a sequel, with Antaeus' sister: Number 04. I'd name her Gaia's Revenge, or Mother Earth.
My personal headcanon is Number 04 (reawakened manually) vs. Number 00 (resurrected by the alien nanoassemblers and turned into a floating fortress).
Huh. An interesting strategy, avoiding the immensely dense enemy anti-air. I'll have to try it sometime.
Best game
I fear I do not. The first few are either for spending a mission or scoring a number of kills in a ground/hover/air vehicle, but the rest beat me.
I loved this game, I've played through it three times total... I can only imagine this type of game with a multiplayer function. I'm sure it would be a very interesting game. Do want a sequel!
Phoenix actualy don't but upgraded Salamander (sry, I forgot name) and Behamoth do. It's not like- you got 2 slots for weapon, but if you plant some weapons (like scalpel and longbow) you get double turrent, wich is actualy nice ;)
awsome game
I think a better question would be, why -doesn't- it have 2 weapon slots in the game.
Apparently someone is remaking this game...
Huh. Didn't know those comments don't get put in my inbox.
Anyways, if this still interests you: Concept art, ingame description, early screenshots, all suggest that the Phoenix should have a doubled-up weapons bank. That is not the case, in the game it only carries a single weapon.
@Ridge3210 Agreed, agreed and agreed. Still, there were some loose plot threads left hanging (the Ops team, for one), and the lack of replayability. There's no "skirmish" mode, no multiplyer (symmetrical or otherwise), and even then, you don't get your full team until you're on-to the timed last two missions. A terrible pity.
i have the game and played all the levels.. but what do you mean? i know everything and ask me if u need some info.. but i dont understand ur question ??
@madis342 Indeed!
Mm. Yes, that'd be nice.
4:28 ...
well... s**t
@Pista90000000000 They can if you manually enable their healing beams if memory serves.
@thebattleforX9 mmmyes
@blackice64 Indeed. I am terribly fond of the plot and the world, and a multiplayer/skirmish mode was exactly the biggest thing this game lacked.
Remember how the second Antaeus carrier refused to lift and couldn't be used? I think that would have been your new carrier in the sequel and you'd be fighting the "aliens" and their newly acquired, old, captured Antaeus carrier.
Yeah that definitely was going to be intention they wanted to make a Sequel but couldn't like with many great games before and after it.
Why was a sequel never made? It's been 15 years I doubt it would get one
rare software went bankrupt
and they were bought by FX Networks a year ago (according to Wikipedia) apparently
Because the developers made a shitty David Beckham game and went bust :(
PS. I'm still waiting for my Hostile Waters 2.0. :'(
I want to see 04 in action. I want to see her being repaired, I want to fight new aliens, I want to see more stories about that universe. I want to listen to the story more.
Rescue Antaeus, Rescue 04, Rescue humanity and planet once more. :'(
Re-released on GOG.com today for 6 bucks! :) (w/ soundtrack)
@SkarmoryThePG one problem with the behemoth-s. if they heal they cannot shot. i use 2 scarab with repair kit, and use 1 behemoth with longbow. and one rhino with warhammer and one sentinel with laser. i move em in the ship a few position to enable one slot on the deck. i use for myself a pegasus to move material to the ship. if they need help or i have little moving space i use a salamandra with one shiel and 2 armor plates. and the final anteus have 20-25% health. :) shark is too expensive...
1:36 Now kiss.
@themisspultone A great game, that is true, but one that lacked replayability.
the most awesome old game i ever had... better than all!!
i like em! if someone create a multiplayer funcion im ther and i will try to kick all gamer's ass!
the last mission is realy hard... After the last turn before the finish i hold my breath and wait for the end... and then... the hole island blow into the hell...
the first time when i finish the game i feel sadness... for the great cruiser is destroy and the crew are dead again... but happyness too... for we save the world. HW 4 EVER!! :)
