Title: Looking for a Tank Game
Post by: dhogan on April 16, 2013, 11:09:31 pm

About 15-20 years old, was a 2D tank game viewed from above, feel like it scrolled vertical but don't really remember. Any thoughts?

Sounds like one of my all-time favorites, though I can't recall the name either!  Subscribing for the (hopefully) answer.

TNK III (http://www.arcade-museum.com/game_detail.php?game_id=9998) is also an under appreciated classic.  This was released on home systems as Iron Tank (http://www.mobygames.com/game/iron-tank-the-invasion-of-normandy).  You didn't mention the system though.  Are we talking arcade games?

Vindicators or Tank Force, perhaps.

For me, I think nullPointer got it with TNK III.  Need to find more shots of it, but that looks like what I remember feeding way too much allowance into when I was little.  Now I need to find one to my collection :)

You might be talking about the hidden game in NBA Jam.

Armor Attack is one of my all-time favorites.
