Got this in my email today and I thought I'd spread it around for anyone who's interested. I consider Battlezone one of the best games I have ever played. I'll defo be trying this once I get back home.

That may be worth busting out. I still have a lot of fond memories of that game.

Had the dual stick arcade game growing up as a kid, great fun. Nothing more satisfying than destroying a fast moving UFO.

I still have my disc for the game. I remember sniping pilots out of their vehicles and stealing them :). Good times.

This was a really really great game, way ahead of its time.
A nation consists of its laws. A nation does not consist of its situation at a given time. If an individual's morals are situational, then that individual is without morals. If a nation's laws are situational, that nation has no laws, and soon isn't a nation.

Yeah agreed. I just downloaded it and tried it out on my laptop (Win XP) and it plays very well. The download link wasn't working (I just mailed the guy about it so it will probably be fixed) but I deleted the exe file name to go to the installer folder and got the install exe file from there.

Daaamnn it felt good to be piloting a battlezone tank again.

{edit} Just got a message back from him. The links are fixed.
