Title: need help figuring out a game title from 1985'ish
Post by: crabbymikedavis on August 21, 2007, 12:19:25 am

My friend and I have been raking or heads trying to find out a game that came out roughly 1985-86 that is kinda like Guerilla war (US) but 2 people can play it and I think 1 player is red and other blue and you can take over tanks and if you get hit while in the tank you get kicked out till you find another tank. You can throw grenades and shoot your machine gun. Kinda basic graphics, but was a blast. Hope someone else out there might know?  :dunno

Or maybe The Speed Rumbler?  although I don't think that is a two player game.
