Old Jan 17th, 2004, 12:20 PM        CURSE YOU GUNBOUND!
You see, this is the problem. First I got a laptop and I found it was really condusive to my writting. But now I found a fun little game that can play well on my laptop that has a simple but complex dynamic.

It's Gunbound (google it, I'm sure you'll find it).

Ever play Scorched Earth? Strategic Shelling is the name of the game my friends.

However, Scorched Earth was about buying weapons and generally staying rather still unless your solid footing is forcibly removed by way of cannon fire.

Gunbound has about 12 different 'Mobile' Frames, which are tanks with two standard weapons, and one special weapon that you can only activate use once in a while. Each tank is weak to a specific kind of weapon. You've got Hit, Explosive, Electric, and Laser. Tank Types are Creature, Shield, and Machine. You've got six item slots, with items taking 1 or 2 slots.

Now, add in a very massive multi-player network. Battles can be up to eight people, and are team based.

But wait, there's more. You have your own character which you can customize with various items that can be purchased with 'Gold' you earn in battle, or 'Cash' which you get buy giving actual moneys. I don't see much point in using Cash, considering that you already download the game FOR FREE! Of course, some people are pathetic when it comes to games (*COUGH*EVERQUEST!*COUGH*).

What you've got is addictive team-based Strategic Shelling. I've stayed up quite a few nights realizing I've got to be at work in four hours after playing this. Shiiit.
