Comments[]

Tiny Toon Adventures
"Obviously deriative but exceptionally fun woodland platform game with oodles of eco-friendly action, mates."

Mutant League Football
"A good laugh in two-player mode, and a decent enough game really, but John Madden is still the king by a long, long way."

Sunset Riders
"A simple arcade game for sure, but it's fast, funny and simple fun. One of the most enjoyable platformers I've played in months."

Hardball 3
"A good baseball game - perhaps the best - but actually a pretty dull game. We'll compromise."

Fatal Fury
"A nice looking beat-'em-up that with a few gameplaying tweaks could have been great."

Final Fight
"A fab beat-'em-up conversion. It's the arcade game… and more!"

Make Your Own Video: C&C Music Factory
"A good idea, but with restrictive editing and only three songs, it's not all it's cracked up to be."

Battletoads
Not bad, but a bit rough-looking and incredibly frustrating."

Hit The Ice
"Hit The Ice is the Andy Dyer of the school hockey squad."

Clue
"Designer mediocrity. Don't stand for it. Even the multi-player mode is tedious. Altogether a bad idea."
