		I think you'll be able to tell this is my first time blushes Die Hard: Nakatomi Plaza received lackluster reviews and a fairly negative response from gamers, but I'm a fan of the movie and the game itself is something of a novelty; I've never come across anything like it.
		Nakatomi Plaza originally started as a Half Life mod, but Fox Interactive bought it and the game transferred to the Lithtech engine.
		Each level is not contained in one giant model of the tower.

	Speed Demos Archive - Die Hard: Nakatomi Plaza
		Released in April 2002 by Fox Interactive, Die Hard: Nakatomi Plaza puts you in the bare feet of New York police officer John McClane during the events of the first Die Hard movie.
		The FPS allows the player to live the movie almost exactly as McClane did and even throws in a lot of side adventures and floors not explored in the film.
		In segment 1: Nakatomi Plaza, I crouch through the elevator doors.

	Review: Die Hard 2: Die Harder (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		This time, the scene is no longer the Nakatomi Tower in Los Angeles, but Dulles International Airport in Washington D.C., where a group of terrorists (it's always terrorists in these films) led by the renegade Colonel Stewart (William Sadler) has taken command of the runways and control tower.
		Unless their demands, which include the immediate release of the drug lord on his way to the United States for trial, are met, Stewart's band intends to start crashing planes.
		The confines of the Nakatomi tower have been widened, although most of the action still takes place in the limited area of Dulles Airport.

	IGN: Die Hard: Nakatomi Plaza Review
		The use of this kind of language is probably offensive to some gamers and, while most of it is kind of gratuitous, it does add an air of immediacy and intensity to the game.
		The team has recreated the entire Nakatomi Plaza tower for this game, even the places not shown in the film.
		From the helipad on the roof to the rat-infested sewers, each level of Nakatomi Plaza is well designed.

		Unfortunately, he arrives at her place of business, the massive Nakatomi Tower, just as it is being taken over by terrorists led by Hans Gruber (Alan Rickman) and his right hand man Karl (played by Alexander Gudenov, who proves himself to be one bad-ass ballerina).
		Two years after the mayhem at Nakatomi Tower, we find John McClane traveling to Washington, DC, once again on Christmas week, to spend the holiday with his wife Holly and their kids and the home of his in-laws.
		The ante is upped this time, as an elite group of former military commandos led by Col. Stuart (William Sadler, in a knockout performance) take over the airport’s tower (radar equipment, runway lights and all), endangering the passengers of over a dozen planes, in an attempt to rescue drug lord General Ramon Esperanza (Franco Nero).

	Die Hard Analysis - Screenwriting article by William C. Martell
		He had read a book titled "The Glass Tower" (which would eventually be made into the film "The Towering Inferno") about a group of people trapped on the top floor of a high rise office building by a raging fire, and found the idea of people trapped above the reach of rescue equipment intriguing.
		When Hans and his team take over the Nakatomi Building to rob its vault of 640 million dollars in negotiable bonds, they take the Christmas party crowd on the 30th floor hostage.
		When he first hears of the Nakatomi Tower takeover, he dumps his girlfriend to cover the story (page 53).

		There's never a shortage of places to go or wishes to be granted in the City of Angels.
		Fox Plaza was designed in 1987 by Johnson, Fain, & Pereira Associates, but you probably know it better as "Nakatomi Tower," the architectural star of the movie Die Hard.
		Despite the fictional terrorist attack it weathered in the movie, it was deemed secure enough to house Ronald Reagan's offices when he returned to private life.

		The ground is flat and grey, with a speckling of lighter paint to make it more interesting.
