Helio brings Tank Wars: Annihilation
Posted by Justin B. on July 9th, 2008 at 11:40 AM
A week ago or so, a new game appeared on the WAP deck called Tank Wars: Annihilation. You may have come across the games Worms and Gunbound in the past. Both awesome games where you pick a tank and your objective is to target projectiles at your opponent, while factoring in the wind, angle, distance, and power. That’s pretty much what Tank Wars is, but packed into mobile form.
Tank Wars is indeed probably one of the best mobile multiplayer games I’ve played. You can play against the computer, or jump on in a online game. The only downside is that online is 1v1, but that’s alright, it’s still pretty great! If you want to check out some ingame play, Guppy Games has a flash video posted of it on their site, just click the Tank Wars banner at the top of this post.
If you’ve decided to download it from the games store on Helio (.99 to rent for 7 days, 5.99 to buy), then post your gamertag that you are using here in the comments of this post. Keep an eye out for your fellow Helions!

This game rocks I was waiting for a game like this. I remember way back when my uncle got his computer he had a game like this that looked like it was designed in paint. But I loved it I was absolutely addicted to it and now I have a mobile version. THANKS HELIO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I remember when I was really little there was a DOS game programmed in QBasic called Gorillaz. You played gorillas (tanks) on top of skyscrapers and had to throw bananas (projectiles) at the opponents.
July 10th, 2008 at 7:28 am
yes. the gorillaz. i remember that game. one of the first computer games that i can remember. and there was this paper airplane game too. one where u had to find the angle, power, size, and stuff. and the other game was OREGON TRAIL. which i had downloaded for my pc once, and it was still fun. and made a lot of people jealous, cus i had it, and no else did.

Anyone remember the PC game Scorched Earth? It was along the same lines with tanks and there were a bunch of different weapons you could get.

I am the Loser w 605 l 131 d 1 and ranked 7 as of 7/28/08

Straight-shooters are pathetic.
Stop creating games on the pipe or heaven’s bridge
and attempt the game as it was meant to be played.
And as for the lower ranked folks… if you see someone
with a high rank, offering a game on those “maps”…
DON’T PLAY THEM!!!
This isn’t an attack on anyone here, specifically.
Just had to get that off my chest.
The game is wonderful, and I’m Spud. Hi.
