I have been playing world of tanks for a few days now and it has been great. I was able to get into closed beta by getting a key from http://www.shatteredcrystal.com/index.php/world_of_tanks.

You start out in weak light tanks and have to earn lots of research points to climb the tech trees into bigger tanks. Being in light tanks pretty much anything can kill you so you die a lot but that is what you would expect. It is also very fast to get into games to fight more people and if your tank is destroyed you can leave the game by pressing escape and get into another tank and continue fighting another map while still getting exp once that battle ends so you dont have to spend too much time waiting.

Oh yeah been playing that for a few months. It's quite good fun though I find I have problems with the servers in Russia sometimes lagging for me and not being able to control my tank properly, it might have improved though as i've not tried the latest beta version.
