    Anyone play? It's too bad there can't be an online multiplayer. Could be real fun.

    One of my usual summer jobs is to clear out the folders on our district server. Pocket Tanks is one of the more prominent games I find when cleaning. In fact over the past 2 years I have gotten copies of the main game and about 4-5 weapon packs for it. It is a pretty fun time killer on test days.

    Never heard of pocket tanks....I thought the game was called Battle tanks?

    Uhh never mind, pocket tanks is the game I've played. Don't know where the hell I got battle tanks from. Anyways yeah I used to play this all the time, fun game.

    Does anyone remember the old school game called Maelstrom? I used to play it on the MAC's at school all the time. You can download it for PC use too. Good times.

    I do play this.

    Probably a good chance I am the best player in the world.

    It's unfortunately very addictive.

    I kicked both these guys' asses many times. Haven't seen HHG in a while though. He was good. Knightfury is also pretty good.

    I remember in the 1970's and 80's when this game used to be uglier and called "Artillery". It, along with "Lunar Lander"/some form of "moon lander" were among the first games people programmed on their new IBM's/Apples. :D
