WDL is such a cool game. You get to play stuff like capture the flag, just your in tanks blowing eachother up. The graphics arnt the best but the addictive game play makes up for it. If you have the money to add another game to your list you should get this one.
Not a very good PS2 Game

I have given WDL Thunder Tanks an adequate amount of gameplay, but I have not been overly impressed with it.
The missions vary from level to level, and there are plenty of cool tanks to choose from. Some of the tanks, such as the one with the flamethrower needs to be seen. The heat effect was pretty impressive. Aside from this I didn't think the graphics were all that mindblowing.
In addition, the gameplay is what falters on WDL. After playing through several levels, the gameplay becomes pretty repetitive, and some of the missions get to be a little confusing.
Bottomline, if you like mindless games where you can blow stuff up, you may enjoy this. To me, the repetitive gameplay only made this game worthy of a rental and nothing more.
Not Recommended!

WDL is a alright game with fair graphics. I keep hoping that one of these days I will be able to turn my ps2 on and say now that is some great graphics. I know that graphics are not everything but when your dealing with the legendary ps2 they just have to be there. Gameplay is ok. But I got tired of it after about an hour. Twisted metal 2 it is not. Tanks look nice and the explosions are cool also but the textures look like the first playstation. I think company`s are rushing these games out.
This is the best game ever. You have to buy this game

If you like playing fun multi-player games then this is a must have. My brother and I spend all day blowing each other up. The games graphics are realistic and my parents love this game too. This game is great for all ages and I suggest this game as a must have if you like playing against someone. The multi-player capabilities on this game are amazing. This game reminds me of Doom but with tanks. I played about 30 games for the Sony 2 and this game has the best graphics and gameplay. The whole family gathers around the living room and we have tournaments. AWSOME GAME!! Thanks Amazon for making my holidays much better.
The Best Multi Player game for Sony 2

If you enjoy Multi-Player games then you will love this one. We have tournaments with the whole family. Everyone loves this game including my parents. The game is similiar to Doom but you are able to blow up buildings. The graphics are very realistic and it shows buildings getting demolished. You could run over stuff and there is secret weapons. My whole family had a tournament recently and everyone enjoyed playing. My grandmother even liked this game. This is a great game for the family to play. This is definitly the best multi player game available. This game blows away Madden for the Sony 2.
Aroo!

Alright, first off I'm a little confused. All the people who have written reviews so far sound like the exact same person. Is that just me, or? ;)
I played Battletanks and Global Assualt on the '64 and I loved them, not for the graphics, sound or missions, but for the multiplayer.
Truthfully, if you have no friends, do not buy this game. I only really enjoy playing it with other people for a few hours.
That one review really confused me though:
If the some of the missions were somewhat confusing, exactly how was this mindless 'blowing things up,' Which it is, I will not argue that point. But if you buy a game about tanks in a post apocolyptic world, what exactly are you expecting? 'World Destruction League' Hello, Mcfly.
Anywho, the graphics are nice on this, not great but nice. Its a nice advancement from the first two games, though I miss the little flaming bear. Hee.
The wraith tank is sick, I have yet to gain a useful strategy against that thing. When drones are off he just sits around waiting for one of us. I am learning to watch both screens.
I have to go with the Dragonfly, but thats just me;)
Happy blowing things up,
John

Rented it. Hated it. My six year old boy had fun though. No way this should be rated as high as SSX.
Not good

This game has confusing graphics, the play-control is horrible, and the game is too repetitive.
*yawn*

Normally I'm all for explosive combat situations. I bought this game thinking to myself it would be an excellent addition to the PS2 (I was expecting Vigilante 8, just with tanks). Excitement? It's got to be hiding in there somewhere, but I haven't seen it yet. The graphics are ok, but nothing mind-numbing. The gameplay is anything but fast-paced. The areas are dull, the control is obnoxious. The only reason it earned two stars is that it *is* sorta fun in multiplayer mode (if you don't mind the flat-terrain and the dull weapons). Rent it, or better yet, just play V8 on the N64 and forget this even exists.
THIS IS MY FAVORITE GAME ON PS2

I dont actually own the game, but i played it at friends house. The campaigns not really that great, but the rest is. This is my favorite multiplayer game except for Age of EMpires II on PC. It has awesome 3d levels, several tanks, and differnt ways to play, its sort of like Battle Tanx for 64 but better.
