super battle tank - war in the gulf sega

You have to use the map to orient yourself because everything looks the same and the view distance is very short enemies will be firing on you the moment they pop up on your radar. The sand is represented by alternating stripes of light and dark brown, which results in you being unable to tell if you’re going forward or backward and at what speed without looking at a tiny dial in the left quadrant of the cockpit. But the miles and miles of desert the game takes place in looks awful in the tiny viewport. To its credit, Super Battletank has a cool cockpit view which is novel on the Super Nintendo and very well may have been impressive at the time. The quote on the cover of Garry Kitchen’s Super Battletank: War in the Gulf is adorable: “…looks so real that you’ll wonder if it’s Super NES or CNN.” Thank you, Nintendo Power.
