World of Tanks is a pretty good game.
Still playing this with one of my friends, and every now and then a few other people too. The game really works best when playing as part of a team, as the different tank classes compliment each other and cover each other's weaknesses.
I really just wanted to write this post as I'm eagerly anticipating more British tanks! I've been reading about the Cromwell medium tank and it's successors and they sound really exciting. Also, the Sherman is already in the game for the yanks, but us Brits had our own adaptation of it, the Sherman Firefly, and for some reason they've neglected to put this into the British tank tech-tree!
The Sherman Firefly was a basic Sherman with the British 17 pounder (edit - 17 pounder, not 18) anti-tank gun on it. For various reasons the yanks disregarded it and I'd be interested to find out why this was, but German accounts state that these Shermans were particularly feared and at the very end of the war the yanks did start to order these tanks from us Brits only for the war in Europe to end and the delivery never took place.
If you have some spare time and a relatively good gaming PC or an xbox 360, I strongly recommend this game.
It's free and based on WW2 tanks - what's not to like?!
