Yeah. Sadly though, there hasn't been a really good tank sim made. The last tank sim I enjoyed was M1 Tank Platoon 2, and that was lacking in terms of its campaign - in my opinion linear campaigns have no place in a simulation game.
I'd love a really good tank sim. Actually it's hard to find any sort of sim these days. Time was when simulations were all over the computer game store shelves, but these days it's all FPSs and MMOGs - it's sad really that the game industry has been taken over by the lowest common denominator - lots of explosions, mass-killing and pretty graphics instead of thoughtful game design. At least every now and again we get a good sim like SH3 and SH4, but I miss the old days when I could go into a game store and see the likes of M1 Tank Platoon 2, Red Baron 2, Falcon 4.0, AH-64 Apache etc.
