    I've seen a pre-release version of Spectre, so I guess I can tell you what
    it's like. Spectre is a tank game vaguely similar to the old Battle Zone,
    in which you are the pilot of a tank (no! surely you jest!).

    The graphics are just 3-D vector graphics, but they're done really smoothly
    and scroll along with very little jerkiness. You can customize your
    tanks to a certain extent, and the game is playable over a network,
    although the version I saw had this feature either disabled or unimplemented

    All in all, a very fun and well-designed game.
