need help figuring out a game title from 1985'ish
« 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

If you're replying to a troll you are part of the problem.
I also need to follow this advice. Ignore or report, don't reply.

Sarge?

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

Wish list: Galaga, Pacman, Pooyan, Star Wars cockpit, Gauntlet, Tron

And the Lord spake, saying, 'First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then, shalt thou count to three. No more. No less. Three shalt be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, nor either count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three.
