But, the whole Timesplitters plus Vigilante 8 thing puts WDL in its own corner. Yes, you might have played something similar on N64 or maybe in the arcade. Giant tanks, some dating from before the war and others fiendishly cutting-edge, enter combat zones and battle. With a need for good post-apocalyptic entertainment, the public naturally turns to arena combat. And none of those school buses or sedans, 'cause this is the future. If you're playing, it's all part of the experience, but listening as a non-player is more pain than pleasure.įor the quick run-down, WDL Thunder Tanks is a multiplayer dream of vehicular carnage. More vroom means more music and voice-over time, some of which is almost too much. Tank models were pretty cool for PS, but seeing them in even more detail and having all the extra drone tanks and environments come to life in smooth detail is all part of that big PS2 powerhouse. Weapon effects look better and move much faster the slowdown present in some parts of WDL for PlayStation are gone. Things like destructable environments don't just break into smaller polygons now, but crumble and explode realistically. WDL Thunder Tanks for PS2 is in a whole new world of graphic sophistication.

Even though WDL's gameplay barely changed for PS2, everybody seems to love it now. I'm talking about the people who had nothing positive to say about this game because they couldn't get past the graphics. Remember all the people in high-school you thought were morons who ended up model-beautiful? All of a sudden, your opinions changed, right? Well, as much as we all like to pretend we don't judge a book by its cover, 3DO's conversion of WDL Thunder Tanks pretty much bends a few fools over and spanks their little red tushies.
