- From customizing your tank, to your campaign, to your multiplayer/single player experience, and so on, Battlezone offers you almost too many choices. However, that is the strength of the game and it works brilliantly. Battlezone is easily a must have purchase if you enjoy tank combat, arena combat, or are a fan of the classic Battlezone from 1980.

May 1, 2018 · Battlezone Gold Edition is a great game that's easy to pick up and play; one that I'll certainly find myself dipping into little but often. It has some minor gameplay issues and imbalances, but they're quite easily overlooked when you're having a blast.

It's a great first person action with vehicles AND a strategy game. You build your base kind of like in Starcraft but in first person (you can also use the top-down view if you have a satelite uplink) and then personally lead your units to battle!
Oct 13, 2016 · Battlezone is easily one of the best games on PlayStation VR, even with a high price point. It’s retro futuristic tank combat is fun and engaging, while the randomised campaign, four player co-op and the challenge it can throw your way keep me wanting to come back and try to beat it time and again.

They say gameplay is everything, but let's not kid ourselves. This is a technology-driven medium and a flashy new look can go a long way. If you take a ride in the way-back machine to 1980, you'd find a game that took arcade visuals and presentation to new heights and became a classic in the process. The game put you inside a tank and pitted you against a series of wireframe, 3D opponents. By today's standards the vector graphics and basic gameplay aren't much, but this was a pretty big deal at one point in time. That time has passed.
The gameplay remains intact, for better or worse. The original game relied on a twin stick control with a single button for firing. Each stick controlled one tread on the tank which takes a little while to get used to. For those that can't handle the twin sticks control, a new single analog stick configuration has been added. Once you're moving, it's just a matter of avoiding enemy tank fire and blasting back. The enemies include normal tanks, super tanks and fast moving missiles. For bonus points, there are non-aggressive hovering saucers that randomly appear nearby.
Battlezone has received more than the usual bare minimum in updates that we're used to seeing in classic games on the Live Arcade, enough that it almost makes this an attractive package. There's an evolved mode with more modern visuals (lens flare on the moon!) and also an entirely new mode called Throttle Monkey that ups the pacing and challenge significantly. There's also online leaderboards and a four player deathmatch that can be played through Live.
Battlezone had its day in the sun but that sun has set. The updates show good effort, but questionable design decisions and source material that isn't all that great by today's standards sully the download in the end. You're paying for nostalgia with this one, folks.
