Not this one. I looked like a side-scroller to me. Seems the link is broken.

hmm, the kind of game I want is a riot game with mocavecocktails, led pipes, rubber bullets, beatings, and car jackings :nod:

Almost everything in Tribes 2 is a hover vehicle except the mobile base.  But given that the hover-gravs and terra-gravs all have the same 'SHOOT ME" labeling on them they're not much fun to drive around the base.

Hell, driving those things is too much of a pain in the rear to me.  But everyone else seems to be able to hop in and bomb everyone else without half a trouble.

Not much to contribute On Topic-wise here, the only two tank games I ever played were for the SNES a long time ago...  And even then they sucked.  Having to worry about gas, crawling around the map, having to use your machineguns to clear out landmines...  

Blah.

I tend to use them mostly for CTF suicide runs, especially on the Katabatic map; I take a Shrike fighter and have it run into the enemy's flag (while I jump out at the last second), which makes everyone run away from the explosion and allows me to get a head start when running back to base with the flag. The tank is quite nice as a normal battle unit though.
