    Call me old fashioned but I like the old school Atari Battlezone. For some real fun run down to local Marine Corps or Army recruiting center & volunteer for real thing.

    BTDT, less hazardous, less hearing loss playing video game.

    The quality of some of these video games is really impressive. I was playing the Call Of Duty series for a while and some of the video images was really impressive, very realistic. Haven't done World of Tanks or played CoD in a while either for that matter.

    Got that on a stand up machine at the house. It is a classic.

    I got into playing World of Tanks for a while and loved it. Unfortunately, adulting has been taking up my gaming time and I haven't fired up the game in months. One day I'll get back to it.

    Wow who would have thought there's a relationship between vfrs and tanks. I like to blow things up too, so guess its somewhat true that VFR owners and tank people think a lot a like.

    Played some, wasn't good at it. Hasn't been playing for a while now. Riding in a tank is funny though, the real deal that is :)

    Not me, but impressive..

    I've been playing WoT since 2011, crappy PC and internet connection only allows 30-40 fps at best, but I enjoy the game play, allows me to connect with family over long distance in ways other than usual.
    I started on EU server while in service overseas, now I play mostly on NA server.. but still have account on both servers.
    If anyone want to platoon, let me know.

    Tanks are heavy and get crappy mileage.

    I understand the video game is much safer than the real thing too.

    The same goes for blowing stuff up. A kilo of C4 (Semtex) and a blowup doll could be cited as examples.

    I don't like my neighbors much, especially when their dog start to bark at 7AM on a SUN morning.. but nothing says love like a lil C4.

    A countermeasure is to gift them a rooster.

    Depends on the tank, road marching with a Leopard 2 is rather around 1.2 gallon on the mile :)
    Still that engine sound, and when the turbo winds down, I just love it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YoDHs9yjLY8
