This provides one of the mest multiplayer memories, when I was little, and playing this game with my little brother. The concept of capture the flag game with 4 difference vehicles, each with their unique strengths and weaknesses. The Jeep is fast, agile and can capture the flag. But it is frail. The tank is strong, but slow, and can't shoot the helicop, which only can be shooted down by the ASV. It provides many stragetically aspect to the game, and it's SO great as local multiplayer game!

Played this a lot with my father, it was a 90's multiplayer experience. Also I knew this games thanks to a Windows 95 Videogame Sampler, that had a lot of demos
The laughing skull when your vehicle gets destroyed and the dramatic classical music really provided Return Fire with a dark sense of humour. Sometimes me and my best friend would just decide to ground level the entire map. The game‘s slogan was: „Destroy! Destroy! Destroy!“ Good memories.

Tiny Tank
Tiny TankIn a future world, an army of steel robots are out to destroy the human race. Our only hope is a little yellow tank armed with some mighty big guns. The sentient Tiny Tank was originally created to appease a public that feared the mindless violence waged by larger war-robots, but he was soon destroyed by one of those jealous automatons at the beginning of the robot revolution 100 years ago. Almost destroyed, at least. Thanks to nano-technology, hundreds of microscopic "Fix-It Crabs" went to work and Tiny Tank was slowly rebuilt. Now he alone stands against the threat of the cruel MuTank and his deadly robot minions, who have all but erased human civilization from the planet's surface. The spunky little tank will need luck, strategy, and all the futuristic firepower he can get his treads on to save the human race.

Bloody Roar 3
Bloody Roar 3Bloody Roar 3 pits 12 outlandish combatants against each other in one of the most ambitious 3D fighting games to grace the PlayStation 2. Returning from Hudson's widely acclaimed PS1 titles are Stun, Long and Jenny, each of who brings a unique fighting skill to the arena. During each bout, players build an energy bar based on the number of successful kicks and punches they land on their opponent. As the bar fills, players can then morph their combatant into terrifying manimals from beasts such as lions and tigers to moles. The morph, in turn, unlocks a secondary control system specifically designed with each creature's combat moves and appearance in mind. In effect, this offers players two distinct combat types within one game.
