Description:	Scientists at UAC have created slipgates that go through different dimensions, as well as places in the past and future. Yet there was one dimension that they had overlooked - HELL'S Dimension. Unbeknownst to UAC, Hell had created their own slipgate to Earth's present, and used it to transport themselves to Earth, invade UAC, and then use UAC's slipgates to take over the world chronologically as well as internationally. Once UAC got ahold of the news, they sent you, their toughest marine, out to seek out the slipgate to the future. Once in the future, you have to exterminate all Hellish activity, then teleport to the past and do the same, and finally venture through Hell itself. This won't be easy. The whole world is counting on you!

Story
                              -----------
        Scientists at UAC have created slipgates that go through different
dimensions, as well as places in the past and future. Yet there was one
dimension that they had overlooked - HELL'S Dimension. Unbeknownst to UAC,
Hell had created their own slipgate to Earth's present, and used it to
transport themselves to Earth, invade UAC, and then use UAC's slipgates
to take over the world chronologically as well as internationally.
        Once UAC got ahold of the news, they sent you, their toughest
marine, out to seek out the slipgate to the future. Once in the future, you
have to exterminate all Hellish activity, then teleport to the past and do
the same, and finally venture through Hell itself. This won't be easy. The
whole world is counting on you!
