Comments[]
- Ultimate Soccer
- Wonderfully programmed and enormously addictive footballing frenzy
- F1
- If you feel the need, the need for speed, there's no better place to find it than this
- International Rugby
- The first rugger game for the Mega Drive and it is a fab one. Slighlty lacking in computer intelligence, but, heck, it's still very slick and playable
- Batman Returns
- A strange breed of game. The platform bits are rubbish, but the driving game is the best I've ever played
- Davastator
- A nice playable CD game that could also be a nice, playable cart game
- B.O.B.
- You've already played a hundred platformers better than this. What's the point?
- The Ninjawarriors
- A very poor game by any standards, and a real waste of (CD) space
- Doraemon Adventure
- Adult fun for five minutes only, but this is perfect bairn-fodder. But it for your sprogs. Aw go on
- Technoclash
- There's a framework of something decent here. However, Technoclash isn't it
- Night Striker
- Avoid this at all costs and don't say we didn't warn you - because we did, so there
- Superman
- Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it's a steaming pile of old nob
- Annette Again
- Play this for a few minutes and you'll think 'this is goinf to get better, surely'. Sadly, it doesn't
- Andre Agassi Tennis
- Don't be fooled by this one. It's as dodgy as a nine pound note
- NBA-All Star Challenge
- Does what it does well enough, but there's practically nothing there. A waste of money, even for two players
- American Gladiators
- Awkward, random, frustrating… crap. Even anyone who enjoyed the show ill find it hard to summon any enthusiasm for this rubbish
