    Used to play a game on a PC, a few years back.

    you were a machinegunner in a nest. Enemy tanks, paratroopers, APCs, fighter aircraft came at you in waves. you had limited ammo and a few missiles.

    There was a night mode where you had to do the same thing with only a flashlight circle to kill the baddies.

    the heavier and heavier waves eventually got you.

    Anyone know what it was called ? graphics quite old school but addictive

    which is why I want it again !

    Maybe use this a general cant think of game topic?There was one years ago,Early 90's where there was like a bank robbery or something and you arrive in a chopper take out a few guys on the roof and then ab sail into the bank ?.

    That was Sin.

    It was an ok game until a week later Half Life came out and made everything else feel old.

    You can get it on Steam. Lets just say that time hasn't been the kindest to it.

    Release day wasn't kind to Sin!

    But Silver, man, I loved Silver. Fantastic game, but hasn't really aged too well.
