Tanks are cool.
Video games are cool.
Tank video games? Oh shit.
Talk about video games with tanks in them. Fast-paced action games are prefered, but strategy and simulation games are welcome as well.
Tank Force is an excellent arcade game from Namco, that plays very similar to their previous tank games, Tank Battalion and Battle City. One or two players move around a destructible maze and clear out the enemy tanks. Two players cooperate, but also compete to "win" each level by getting the most kills. There are bosses, and lots of cool power-ups, double shot, missile, 4-way shot, and even a "sonic" gun that can shoot through walls.

Damn, I always thought the GB Battle City was the only game from the franchise.

M1 Tank Platoon for DOS. It was part of my childhood.
nato defense, one of the best pac man clones i've ever played that has tanks.
One of HALĀ“s pre Kirby games, awesome shooter for Game Boy

Great game. A SNES version where you could turn the turret with the shoulder buttons would've been cool.

Mechwarrior 3050 might be of interest to you then.
Tokyo Wars was my favorite tank game.

Tanx n Stuff for the Amiga was one of those games where I played the demo for years and years with my brothers. We never had any money to actually mail to the people who put shareware on demo disks, but the .adf is out there on the EAB.

Excellent 4 player game, computer player optional. He's also a cheating bastard who has a much better rate of fire and movement ability at times.

Does anyone know Firepower? I don't think I ever met anyone other than my brother who had played this. All I remember from it that it had some really wonky controls.

Arcade one was neat too.
Ghost in the Shell for the PlayStation is one of the best tank games ever, and it's not even a tank game.

There is a NAMCO arcade tank game with their version of Mode 7 graphics. I think it's called Assault, or Assault Plus or something. All I remember is that it was on one of the old PS1 NAMCO museums back in the day.

>Assault
Fucking awesome game. I played the original cabinet at a big arcade show in January.
Namco has a LOT of tank games, and some of them are similar enough that it almost feels like one big series.

>Battle City
>Grobda
>Blazer
>Tank Force
>Assault
>Tokyo Wars
>Tank! Tank! Tank!

my nigga
Steel Thunder y'all
You're welcome
>>3616751
I remember seeing an ad for this game as a kid. IIRC my PC could run it because it required a 3D accelerator. Is it any good?
>>3617590
*couldn't
Battletanx, Battletanx: Global Assault, and WDL Thunder tanks. Pretty good 3DO tank games
>>3617649
Not to mention that global assault actually has a really good story and strategic gameplay that has aged very well. Plus you get to blow up the Eiffel tower and white house and stuff.
>>3617348
>Steel Thunder
was about to post this. awesome game
>>3617352
yooo
>>3617590
I played the demo. It's... unusual to say the least. Actually my main problem was that the controlls are difficult. So if you're good at coordination, it might actually be a pretty great experience.
Armored Fist 3
Not as good as M1 Tank Platoon even though they are years apart, but good for a single run.
A fun game. It's open source. It's been around forever and has been ported to pretty much everything. The online community is hardcore as fuck.
>>3613587
I played that two player with a friend of mine when I was a kid.
Also how come no one has mentioned Metal Slug and Ikari Warriors?
Z has the best tanks
>>3619893
tank force was pretty amazing
it's a shame most new battle city remakes don't take after it
This might be my favorite tank game ever. You can also use the humvee and the helicopter to blow shit up.
