Obliterate! is a 1981 video game published by Mercury 332 that ran on the Prestel online service. The player takes the role of the commander of the fictional Royal Navy submarine HMS Mercury 332 and is given the mission of sinking the Argentine flagship, the Frey Bentos.
The game gained worldwide notoriety and was taken off the service. It once again became a topic of discussion after the sinking of the ARA General Belgrano by HMS Conqueror during the Falklands War.
