COVER GAME
|
Never heard of it? You will. It's one of the meanest, most action-packed, most exciting arcade games ever. We got the exclusive review to go with the exclusive badge of this month's cover
|
|
MEGATAPE 7
|
|
We didn't think we'd manage it. But somehow we did persuade Mastertronic to give us the brilliant Amaurote for our Megatape! It's got OVER 2500 screens! It was always underrated - judge for yourself! PLUS two levels of the latest Daley Thompson game from Ocean - some the best giant sprites we've ever seen and (genuinely) armbreaking action. Plus the usual Pokes and bizarre scrolling message from the mysterious Adrian Singh (well he's not that mysterious really ... GT)
