Battle Tank on NES throws you right into the driver's seat—literally. You're staring down the barrel of a tank's first-person view, which felt pretty wild for an 8-bit game. That .50 cal machine gun chews through enemies fast, but hold the trigger too long and you'll watch your heat meter spike. Learned that the hard way when three enemy tanks rolled up while my cannon was cooling down.

The smokescreen actually comes in clutch when you're surrounded, and the missile launcher? Absolute chaos—just don't expect precision aiming. Maps are tight, so you're constantly pivoting to blast rivals before they flank you. It's janky in that classic NES way, but lining up a perfect 150mm shot never gets old.
