This was an excellent game (you can DL it for free nowadays). You are in command of a squad of Mobile Infantry (MI) and tasked with various missions that usually involve running around a map and shooting rockets at bugholes.
Your men will start the game in the basic MI armor, a grey helmet and a grey tunic. The safest way to keep your men alive is to group them into a huddled mass (circle formation) to concentrate their firepower. As your precious troopers advance in rank they will be authorized to pilot mechanized suits and heavier weapons - they will likely retain the huddled mass formation.
The controls are simple but can be frustrating until you get a good grip on them (having your camera locked on the wrong man, shooting micro-rockets into your own men).
There isn't a whole lot in the ways of tactics (see a bughole, shoot a bughole, rinse repeat) and by the middle of the game each of your high ranked soldiers has access to powerful Micro-rockets which can easily dispatch the most powerful bugs (which are strangely less and less frequent as the game progresses).
If you liked the movie you will probably enjoy this mindless game - like I did!
