I used to play an old dos based one (v similar to that one in style and graphics) called scorched earth, dont know if the two are related or not. But damn that thing was fun, might have to download it again at some point.

Scorched earth was fantastic.
yes the garphics where basic but up to 8 players/ccp, more weapons than you could lob a shell at, a range of Computer Controlled Player difficulity from easy to truely evil, it was insane fun.
There was also a fun win95/98 one called . . . um I cannot rememberit was shareware, but instead of "normal" and tanks, it was space ships and planets, eactly the same comcept but you had to get used to gravity not putting down but towards multiple points.
The CCP on high level could pull off stupidly impossible shots, it would fire in the away from you and orbit the shot around 3 planets and stright onto your head.
That game even had a editor so you could make your own shells.
We had the planet buster, a shell that when it hit a planet tunnels in, releaseing additional copies of it's self as it goes (max 6) when it reached the surface again it explodes (very large) and releases a burst of 6 more tunneling shells that explode when they reached the surface.
Shoot that at a planet and noting on the planet was safe.
We then made the planet expander, same thing but replace the explosions with new planets (centered on the surface)
Shoot that at a planet and you'd double it's size and encase any ships on it.
Was a great game, but could never get it to work under xp
EDIT: found the name of it, Warheads

Used to play this lots when I was guard, simply becuase the computer in the guard room was soo crap, it was one of the few games that ran. That and some sort of Drug Lord game.![]()
Wow, I used to play this a lot when I was younger. Really fun game if you have two people to play with.
well this has 230+ weapons and is pretty great![]()
I rememer playing with the MS Basic one (with gorillas and banas!) changing the code as much as I could!

Gorilla and Banana one was ace!! Loved that one.
Have to say, I still prefer Worms. Any of them up to World Party were great. Didn't like the 3D one very much.
There's a pretty decent iphone version of this called ishoot. Good fun when your bored on the train etc
I loved that, and DX-Ball when I was a kid. Haven't played PT in a few years though, but I have had the odd crack on the original DX-Ball. They are great games for what they are.
Last year in school everyone used to play a variant of this called Tanks. Wasted many many hours in the IT room/on laptops playing it when we were meant to do work haha. Vs mode ftw. It was a bit obvious to teachers though when 2 people were sharing pcs...
