Scores out of 10

Dynamite Dux - 9
 * Cutsie highly graphic horizontal {psuedo 3D) scroller with a surreal sense of the ridiculous.

Centre Court - 8
 * Centre Court is good fun but you'll find the computer is much better at it than you.

Comments
Savage - 96%
 * The closet thing yet to a perfect arcade game. What more could anybody want?

Dark Fusion - 79%
 * Very good sideways scrolling shootin'-an'-grabbin' feast.

Live and Let Die - 60%
 * Reasonable though largely non-earth shattering game with tres-flimsy tie in. Fair.

Operation Wolf - 90%
 * Virtually flawless. Addictive, violent and unsound. One for everyone's Christmas list.

Lightning Simulator - 68%
 * Yet another run-of-the-mill budget simulator. Not a dodo, but there is better.

Pink Panther - 51%
 * Disappointing game of the hip cartoon series.

Game Over II - 62%
 * Above average sequel. Worth a look as a bumper deal with Part 1.

Fernandez Must Die - 63%
 * Unremarkable variation on the Commando theme.

Supersports - 73%
 * Better than average collection of novelty sports.

Laser Squad - 89%
 * Lots of brain busting action without all the boring complexitites of other products. Target's really hit the bullseye.

Hopper Copper - 41%
 * Badly scrolled, poorly designed excuse for a game that even YS wouldn't use as a cover game.

Joe Blade II - 55%
 * Graphically good but sadly unexciting arcade adventure.

Draconus - 94%
 * Not a good arcade adventure. A GREAT one! OFFICIAL!
