In case you want to see how easy is to extract the TAR archives with quickbms:
http://aluigi.org/papers/bms/tar.bms
It automatically supports any compressed TAR archive (gzip, bzip2, compress and lzma/xv).
From quickbms 0.6.3 there will be support for octal and binary conversions so that will be no longer necessary to use a function like in the script.

Re: TAR
I guess probably almost no games use compressed tar archives, even the linux ones.
It's just a script I made for fun and for my collection.
I guess the scripts are useful also to have a practical example of the file formats because reading the specifics often is not enough or they are not 100% correct.
