Sierra's Silent Thunder: A-10 Tank Killer II - Gameplay - Gulf - Mission 3: On the Air

[@honestjohn783]

So many memories. When I was a kid I did not beat 1 mission on this game but flew around for hours and hours. We honestly have not come that far in gaming.

[@MaYstruction]

Me too, this game still looks surprisingly good. But now there's msfs2020, which is definitely a stepnup

Loved this game as a kid!!!!!! Took forever to figure out you can shoot missiles hahaha

[@etnwhvac]

I remember the mission to attack the Air Strip on the desert and it was because I came down to destroy a SAM site and as I'm coming down to shoot I saw the Missile launch from it coming straight at me so I did a full Spin saw the missile passing by and proceed to shoot the SAM site... I'll never forget the adrenaline rush I got on that moment!!!

Just found the original cd that i bought way back in the early 2000

I think the sounds of gun and exploding are same as Earthsiege 2's, both used same 3d engine as far as I know.

[@ScopeOperaSam]

I commented the same thing moments ago. I know I'm a little late to the party. 😅 But yeah I'm thinking both games use the same 3D engine. I can't remember the name of it anymore but I remember having a tech demo showcasing its capabilities all those years ago.

[@ScopeOperaSam]

The music to this game was banger after banger of Jungle Beats. Looking at it now, I'm almost certain this game utilizes sound assets, as well as the same engine, that was used to produce Earthsiege II. And that's kinda neat to me now.

Played this when I was a kid on my dad's gateway about 10 fps but I didn't know any better. Lol

[@Gwenndael]

I remember this game, but I didn't manage to make it run on Xp nor Windows10. How did you do please?

[@AndreaGonzalez-ir4dh]

Go to sierras website and download the installer client, as long as you have the CD it should run.

@@AndreaGonzalez-ir4dh I tried this it gives me an error a10shell.exe not found

[@divinuminfernum]

@@killjoy3259 you can get a version here that is already setup to run for you - it might cost 3 or 4 dollars to download, but then you also get membership for the day and so can get lots of old games many have been setup to run with no fuss www.old-games.com/download/10600/silent-thunder-a-10-tank
