Recently become addicted to this game: Gunbound

this is a free online game that involves adjusting your angle and strength to shoot projectiles at the opponents. just recently discovered this, i'm slow on new things.
hope you will enjoy it

Yeah, this game is fun, and highly addictive. I started playing this week, still didn't get anything for my avatar, but I'm slowly learning the mobiles and improving my aim.

Re: Recently become addicted to this game: Gunbound

what's the origin of this game? i know the concept is very old, but have no idea what's it's called.

sharing my 2c.: use turtle, secondary weapon, close range, double hit. it hits *a lot*

Re: Recently become addicted to this game: Gunbound

You know, that's a very good question.
There are a few references to Scorched Earth (http://www.mobygames.com/game/shots/p,2/gameId,402/), but I'm quite sure it wasn't the first. Some people named an Amiga game called "Tanks", but I cannot find more info on it.

I mentioned Worms because they started the team idea, as well as a few other innovations. Plus they have the biggest fan base. They recently released Worms 3D, which is another break thru (pardon the pun).
