Armagetron is..I guess you could call it a driving game..I can't describe it to you ...you HAVE to check it out. It takes a lot of practice and is hard to get use to. But get ahold of me and i'll teach you how to be a pro. It IS online so that makes it even better! It can be slow if you have stuff running..so try and close things down. I even like to close down my antivirus. But that's just me. This can be a nice lookin game if you up the graphics..but if you have a really slow computer just put everything down as far as you can, and you can still run it. Mostly the graphics include a tron bike your trail walls and the grid. I'll get a pic for you! 1. Here is where you get the game!!! Go to the link i'm about to give you and look for your Operating system whether it be Linux or OSX or WIN or whatever find it..and click on 2.8.0 or 2.8.1.... find one of those and download it!!! Thats it..it's free.. If you have any probs just post here!! or PM me HAVE fun and as they say on the Arma..I LOOK FORWARD TO SEEIN YOU ON THE GRID! CLICK HERE FOR ARMAGETRON ADVANCED FREE!

Here is a screen shot of what the game looks like with alright graphics..lots of additions out...but some good graphics left in. This is how you start out..only a couple people playin at the moment. But it can get pretty hectic! The next picture is what it looks like with a little more action. Again only a couple people on so ..... I'm the black bike and trail and my name on the game is SIN. If you have any questions..i can give you a heads up on how to play..gain speed, breaks..rubber, double binding , grinding, wall hugging etc..lol just ask me how to play and i'll tell ya. LEMME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK!!   |

That looks like a fun game. What does it take up on your hard drive, how does it run? Does it lag? I might try it.

It takes up nearly NOTHING on your HD,and when i say nearly nothing i mean like lemme look....10.6 mb.... umm yes it lags.all games can be laggy...these are servers all over the world some are in germany some are here in the US and hosted in differant states. Your ping is lower the closer you are to the server the lower the ping the less you lag. But if you take down your graphics..(which there are a lot of things you can shut off) like sparks..when you grind it creats sparks..cool affect but can lag you some if you have a slower comp. Check it..BE AWARE. This game takes lots of pracitce to get good. games are short....and you WILL die a lot. don't be frustrated keep practicing. The game gets a LOT better the better you are..and the more people you can kill. Once you get good..you won't be able to stop playing  It is the most addictive game i've ever played. Like i said my name is Sin on there i usually play on speeders or XZL server..you can scroll down the servers and see who is on at that time....so get ahold of me and tell me your name...Oh and one more thing..don't play a server called CVS test fortress..untill you get really good...it's a differant type of server and is a group game..people are jerks there if your new and get them killed :/ |

Yeah, I've won a few times, but it's one of those games where you like it even if you lose. (like "Pacman Vs" or "Bomberman")

Vana'del portal clanserver...i believe. hope to see more of you there  |
