Tanks, Tanks, and more Tanks!
Posted: Fri Mar 30, 2012 6:20 pm
okay I'm not talking about Tanks as in Oil Tanks or anything of the kind, I am talking about the pleasure of tank battle in WW2.
Outside of looking for my new game purchases, I have gotten into World of Tanks which really is a cool online game, and I have been playing it on, and off for about 6 days now (too bad they won't turn this into a real offline game).
Now World of Tanks is so cool in fact that it gave back my old feeling of playing my old standby's from very long ago (M1A1 Tank Platoon), which made me start hunting down some of the better tank sim's out there.
I did happen to come across one which is called "Steel Fury - Kharkov 1942". This game looks beautiful, and you can get your hands on the demo from HERE.
