2 Hot 2 Handle/Ocean (YS77, 90)Australian Rules Football/Again Again (YS49, 69) Quite a goodie if you're into this sort of thing, but the lack of a two player option does let it down. Back To The Future Part II/ImageWorks (YS56, 79) Massive multiload film conversion, very faithful to the complicated film, and full of variety. We like it. Battle Of The Bulge/CCS (YS57, 75) Yep, folks, it's another strategy thingie, but fortunately it's quite a good on. (Well, sort of, anyway.) Hurrah! Beverly Hills Cop/Tynesoft (YS52, 62) A fairly naff film conversion - none of the sub-games are any good, and there's not a trace of humour to be seen. CJ's Elephant Antics/Codemasters (YS66, 85) Cartoon Collection/Codemasters (YS74, 91) Chart Attack/Gremlin (YS73, 90) Defenders Of The Earth/Hi-Tec (YS65, 64)Dragon Breed/Activision (YS61, 82) A pretty decent and original blast-'em-up - though St Dragon got there first (just about). Dragon Spirit/Hit Squad (YS73, 67)Edition 1/Virgin (YS59, 88) Two utterly good games, and two not quite so good (but not that bad either). Quite a good compy then. Fighter Bomber/Activision (YS52, 92) A real corker! One of the best flight sims around, incredibly pretty, full of things to do - the lack of dogfighting doesn't hamper things a bit. Forgotten Worlds/Kixx (YS68, 83)Helter Skelter/Audiogenic (YS92, 79) If I had to choose between this and a stoat in the ear, I'd plump for Helter Skelter. Hostages/Infogrames (YS58, 73) Nicely presented arcade strategy game, well put together, but just not quite 'it'. Italy 1990/US Gold (YS56, 81) Above average footie game with a strong World Cup flavour. Probably the best of the current crop. Kwik Snax/Codemasters (YS62, 92) Magicland Dizzy/Codemasters (YS63, 90) NARC/Hit Squad (YS82, 31) Quattro Adventure/Codemasters (YS58, 95) Quattro Fantastic/Codemasters (YS73, 90) Quattro Sports/Codemasters (YS58, 88) Rana Rama/Players (YS63, 78)Scooby Doo And Scrappy Doo/Hi-Tec (YS68, 74) Nothing new or outstanding, but certainly an improvement on the usual Hi-Tec fare. Shadow Warriors/Ocean (YS57, 90) Technically astounding beat-'em-up, full of colour and action (but doesn't need too much skill). Slightly Magic/Codemasters (YS66, 94) Soccer Stars/Empire (YS75, 82) Story So Far Volume IV, The/Elite (YS48, 57) Six old and worn games bundled together in one pack. The only redeeming games are Wonderboy and Ghostbusters. Superleague Soccer/Impressions (YS57, 52) A different type of footie game, but unfortunately it's crap. Tilt/Codemasters (YS62, 88) Time Machine, The/Vivid Image (YS58, 91) A completely different yet completely brilliant number. Hurrah! Total Recall/Hit Squad (YS82, 76)Trivia/Grandslam (YS49, 62) Yep - it's a trivia game, nothing bad, nothing special. Really for the more brainy and mature among us. (Like me!) UN Squadron/US Gold (YS60, 77) Nice graphics, and a good blast - but a bit too samey really. Ultimate Collection, The/Ubisoft (YS72, 83) Vendetta/System 3 (YS55, 76) It's a beat-'em-up, a driving game, and an arcade adventure! And it's quite good too. Vigilante/Kixx (YS64, 45)World Cup/D&H (YS76, 31) An absolutely dire football management game that is only fractionally better than the original Football Manager. The YS Guide To 'YS-Speak' (YS93) Good evening. If you'd care to take your seats, Professor of Linguistics Rich Pelley will begin his lecture on the peculiar subset of English known as 'YS-speak'. Or something. YS Complete Guide To Puzzle Games, The (YS57) |
