Wild Metal Country (PC)

If you're after some multiplayer Quake-in-tanks action then you can't do better than go for Wild Metal Country this weekend. As is the nature of these multiplayer battles, the subtlety of the single-player game is completely lost - using height to gain an advantage over your adversaries, retiring for repairs and the like - but for frantic, metallic action it's the best.

Those limited to the single-player option need not be too disheartened, the DMA boys have gone to great lengths to create an absorbing and entertaining blaster and there are plenty of vicious computer opponents to get to grips with. We'll be running a full review of WMC next week but for those of you too impatient to wait we'd recommend you go out and buy it anyway.
