On Monday we gave you guys a chance to win Death Tank by naming your favorite video game tank, and the results were pretty entertaining.

Readers chimed in with some classics (Command & Conquer's GDI Mammoth Tank, the tank from Atari 2600's Combat) to some unconventional favorites (the "Tank" from Left 4 Dead, Resident Evil characters.)

However, only five lucky tank fans could win. The following winners will shortly receive a Shackmessage with an Xbox Live code for Death Tank:... Read more

Snowblind Studios and Flat Games' multiplayer shooter Death Tank will arrive in the Xbox 360's online Xbox Live Marketplace this Wednesday, Microsoft has announced.

Priced at 1200 Microsoft Points ($15), the downloadable Xbox 360 release supports up to eight players over Xbox Live, and up to four players on the same Xbox 360 console. Try to imagine Worms without the restrictions of turn-based combat--that's Death Tank.

Originally a hidden game within Lobotomy Software's PowerSlave, released for the Sega Saturn in 1996, Death Tank allowed up to seven players to rain destruction upon each other and the surrounding randomized landscape. A second version, Death Tank Zwei, was hidden within Lobotomy's 1997 Saturn release of Duke Nukem 3D.

Death Tank, once a mini-game in Lobotomy Software's PowerSlave for the Sega Saturn, is coming to Xbox 360's Xbox Live Arcade, as was hinted by Germany's software ratings board.

Now developed by Snowblind Studios, the game is a two-dimensional multiplayer shooter a la Worms, but made real-time instead of turn-based. Lobotomy staffer Ezra Dreisbach, who is credited with the development of Death Tank, now works at Snowblind.

The digitally-downloadable revival will support four players on the same console and up to eight players online. A release date and price have not yet been announced, but the game's first screenshots were released by the studio today.

A listing on the German software ratings board USK's website reveals that a game called Death Tank is coming to the Xbox 360's Xbox Live Arcade platform, prompting speculation that it may be a downloadable edition of Lobotomy Software's fan-favorite 2D multiplayer shooter.

Reminiscent of Team17's Worms series and the freeware PC classic Scorched Earth, the game expanded on the turn-based 2D warfare by bringing real-time gameplay into the mix. Positioned atop a randomized landscape, up to seven players could unleash heavy ordinance to destroy opponents and whittle down the surrounding terrain.
