...3D! <!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="

The graphics and sound effects are great, and it really brings back memories of playing this on my Apple IIc when I was a kid. It's free for download, and does have multiplayer capabilities. However for multiplayer you will need All Seeing Eye (gamespy type utility). I don't know if ASE has spyware or anything, I don't have it currently, but might have to get it to play multi. <p></p><i></i>

Very cool. I absolutely loved scorched earth. Played it on my old Toshiba 386 laptop in monochrome colour against all my friends in grade school. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :) --><img src=
http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/smile.gif ALT=":)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br><br>Tem, I just tried the version that you've linked to. Looks pretty neat, but a few problems: I don't know how to adjust firing POWER (I can get rotation and elevation, though) and there seems to be a fairly significant memory leak in it, because I had to reboot when I was finished with it. It's a bit of a memory hog, but hey, it's freeware. Hope it's 'nastiness'-free (spyware, etc.) and given the 'amateurish' (no offense) look of the project and site, looks safe. <p><center><table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=5><td><img border="0" src="

The source is available, so I doubt any nastyness is there or someone would find it. <p><head><link rel=stylesheet href="
