navychief 1 Posted February 3, 2007 (edited) Hi all. I don't post here much. Used to, when it was known as BioHazard Central. At any rate, I am thinking of getting the sim, "Steel Beasts", but don't know much about it. I see, from my google searches, that there apparently is more than one version. Which one is worth getting, if any of them? Thanks. Am running Windows XP, a BFG 7800GT 512MB video card, and dual processors. Hey Firehawkordy, email me, shipmate! I sent you a message weeks ago, but haven't heard back from ya! Navy Chief Edited February 3, 2007 by navychief Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Southernap 1 Posted February 3, 2007 Chief, I have Steel Beasts Gold, which was the original verison with some expanded scenarios. Basically this is a simulator of modern tank operations in either an M1A1 or a Lepoard 2 main battle tank. I have not played it in about 5yrs but it was pretty fun at the time I was playing it. If I remember there isn't a campaign as much rather a series of missions that you will engage such targets as T-72's, BMP's, Mi-24's, BTR's etc. It is supposed to be customizable and pretty easy to do editing and modding. The current verison that you can buy is a modified verision of the one that the company sells to the military and government. It is called Steel Beast Pro- Personal Edition. The only thing is that at 125 dollars it is completely out of my price range. I would recommend that you do a search online at Ebay or even amazon for Steel Beasts Gold. That will give you best game at the cheapest price. I think that website, Steelbests.com, which is a fan site would let you know more about the game and its versions.
