There were many games I wanted to play more of when I was a child. With renting games from Blockbuster I could only play a game for a few days before I had to return it. A few games stuck in my memory for those that I had to give back before I was ready. One of those games is called BattleTanx. Im playing it on an emulator and trying out the levels.
I start the game and let the intro play out, then I am in an M1A1 tank and make my way through the map to find enemies and destroy them.
It appears im at an airport though hard to tell. Maybe I should have paid better attention to the story line. There were small tanks I had to take out and then some full sized ones at the end of the map. There were power ups but I could not tell much of a difference. I move onto the next level which is a city from the looks of it. Many barriers I keep getting stuck on this map. My tank got pretty torn up as I was having troubles finding my way through the maps, though it seems I made it to the tunnel which brings me onto the next level. I upgraded my tank to a flame thrower model and tried out level 3. Looks like it was a level on the ocean and tanks are being dropped off by boat. I get taken out by one of the boats, had no idea they could fire back.
So far the playing has been kinda meh, maybe it will get better as I play more. Otherwise ill stick to some other games and see how much I like those. Now the emulators are working so well its a good time to try out a bunch of games that I rented from my childhood, but only got to play a little bit.
