"Aristocracy Tank Club"

This is an impressive 3D tank combat game released back in 1998. It's well 
worth a look. There's also a nice website:

Instructions:

Destroy your opponent's tank.

circle button = select option.
cross button = deselect / back.

START button = pause game / select option.

directional button = press to rotate your tank turret (when R1 is not held).

R1 button = "Accele" button. Hold R1 and press the directional button to 
move.

square button = "Shot" button. Hold for rapid fire.

Counter Shot: press the square button twice in quick succession to repulse 
enemy shots.

Cannon Buster: When R1 is not held and "OK" is displayed next to your tank, 
this powerful shot is charged and ready. Press square to fire. A timer next 
to your tank indicates the shot is charging.  Charging is interrupted if 
square or R1 is pressed.

Zero Distance: Tanks can not shoot when they are close to each other. In 
this situation, press square twice in quick succession to push away and 
temporily stun your opponent's tank.
