...ultimate computer game for someone like me would be called Blow Up Stuff. The player could choose to explode anything he likes (or dislikes): Sherman tanks, Stealth bombers, fuel barges, skyscrapers. Also those creepy Teletubbies creatures. He'd get a choice of weapons, as well, from small-arms fire and hand grenades to Stinger missiles and tactical nukes.
