Atari 2600 Tank Combat Rides Again

Ahh, the good old days...remember back in the 70's, when the coolest videogame console around was the Atari 2600? ...um...or am I really dating myself now? In any case, the console shipped initially with the iconic game "Combat". Using tanks and airplanes, you tried to take out your opponent before they did the same to you. The tank option was always my favorite. You'd each start at opposite corners of a maze, then make your way to a strategic spot where you could rain turret fire down on your opponent...

Sorry, got lost there in the moment. Anyway, my point is this...some kind soul has brought back the Atari 2600 Combat game, programmed in Java, and renamed as TurboTanks. You can now play against a computer opponent using your browser. Game on!
