What was that game?...
I have been thinking lately about some of the arcade games that I have played in the past, but just can't remember the names...
That's what this thread is for. Anyone who can remember a great arcade game, but just can't remmeber the name!
2 of mine that I remember so far are:
1. A game where you drove around in a vehicle that looked like a pickup truck but had missiles on the back. It was a shooter, but based around controlling a truck with missiles. That's all I can remmeber.
2. The other game is one where you had a futuristic tank like vehicle that had artillery as a special weapon and when you used it, the tank lifted up on it's back wheels and let off a round that had a big blast.
The controller was a star wars video game like "wheel".
hmmm.

Was it a side-scroller, or did you drive upwards? Or how was it played?

it was a top to bottom scroller, no not spy hunter.
I think the name was something along the lines of "top gunner" or something...no not the tom cruise movie.

not yet, but i'm trying to remember.
It's funny how something that has slipped your mind for so long can just pop right in there...
