Esther Rantzen,Betty Boo and many others(where were Iron Maiden? - Rob).Amongst many of the events happeningwas the International Video GameChampionships (see the feature laterin this ish), as well as Gremlin's LotusEsprit Turbo Challenge, with amassive two-seater console and steering wheels!8DOMARK'S COIN-OP CAPERSDomark have lust announced theyhave grabbed the licences to four newAtari coin-ops, to be published on theTengen label during next year.

As far as Atari's newest coin.ACTI-VISIONSBefore they depart our lair shores, AOvisionhave announced the release Oftwo of their last UK-sourced products.both of which are 16 bit, Hunter is aweird but impressive 30 adventure inwhich you have to walk, swim, sail andeven windsurf around an archipelagoof islands in the search For a missingperson. Deuteros (pictured) is the sequelto that successful strategy <strong>game</strong>.Millennium 2.2, by the same author,but with many improvements over theoriginal and even more depth. Watchout for reviews in the next couple ofmonths.From next year Activision will beconcentrating on marketing their Americanproducts, and their first such releaseswill be two Nintendo <strong>game</strong>s.COMPUTER SHOW OR MOTORSHOW?With the amount of motor cars on displayat the CES show, you could haveeasily been tooled that you were walk •ing around a motor show.

No news of those beingsnapped up yet, but you can rest assuredwe'll keep you informed.Rad Gravity (a carloony sort of arcadeadventure set in space) and GhostbustersII (a shoot 'em up based on thefilm of the same name).

Theyalso had a gob-smacking F15 StrikeEagle coin-op on the stand, set on treeplay! This caused large amounts ofchaos, especially when we tried to getRichard off the flippin' thing - check thepic out!

A-Type, TV SportsFootball. Alien Crush, Pac-Land, LegendaryAxe. Galaga '90 and a wholelot morel No price has yet to be established,but the TurboGralla probablyset you back around E180.00.MICROPROSESHOWS ITSTACKLEMicroProse were plugging their newstuff for Christmas. including Knightsof the Sky (a Wings-type WWI simulation),Rick Dangerous II, MI Tank Pla•toon for the ST 3 nd Amiga, and aAt the CES, Nintendo were pluggingtheir Game Boy, now officially availablein this country and the MutantNES Pack, containing the Nintendoconsole and a Copy of Teenage MutantHero Turtles (hardly surprising).The Game Boy will retail for a grandtotal of £69.99 (the pack includes atwo-player adaptor, stereo headphones.a copy of the utterly brilliantTeals and batteries), and there are six<strong>game</strong>s available for it, including SuperMario Land (yaaayl), Golf and SolarStriker. Mario himself made an appear•ance, along with the very interestingMiss Nintendo. and was seen on manyoccasions strolling around the show.SEE SEGAVirgin Games (who used to be VirginiMastertronic),and Sega were avery strong force at the show, showingoff the Megadrive. which has finallybeen officially released in this countryThe first batch of Megadrive <strong>game</strong>swere also on display, as well as loadsof new Master System goodies. On thecomputer front, the 16 bit versions ofGolden Axe were on display (lookingpretty dashed sexy too), as well as versionsof the soon-to-be-releasedJudge Oredd. and the superlativeSuper ON-Road Racer,SUPERFAMICOMFROLICSMirrorsoft have managed to grab thelicence to write and publish softwarefor Nintendo's eagerly-awaited SuperFamicom, and their wacky puzzle<strong>game</strong> Bombuzal is to be one of thefirst batch of <strong>game</strong>s to be launched inJapan on October 21st.On October 22nd, the first importedmachines will doubtless be on sale inthe UK, In Japan the machine is to sellfor around E120, but only time will tellwhat kind of markup the importers willimpose on the machines they sell.However, having seen preview otos ofstuff like Strider (looks amazing), R-Type II (looks even more amazing!)and Super Mario 4 (gibber!), it definitelylooks like a machine that will be givingthe Megadrive and PC Engine arun for their money


ELECTRONIC ARTS FARTSON CARTSNow that the Megadrive has officially"hit the streets*, Electronic Arts arewasting no time in bunging Out theirnew line in official Sega carts, all ofwhich are conversions of Amiga products.Coming up before Christmasare Populous (infamous God <strong>game</strong>),Budokan (very detailed martial artssim). Zany Golf (terrific <strong>game</strong> of CrazyGolf, with lots of bizarre hazards),Sword of Sedan (handsome fantasybeat 'em up), Battle Squadron (weapons-ahoyspace blast) and best of all,John Madden's Mud and Guts Football,a terrific American Football simwith the best 3D graphics ever tograce such a <strong>game</strong>!

Thesticker in question was in tact the numberfour (four turtles, see?) on theslicker sheet, so cut it, and the onefrom this issue, out, and keep both stickerssafe until next month. For those ofyou that were daft enough to throw thebacking sheet away, pound your headagainst the nearest wall several times,and say "I must not throw anythingaway that C-4-VG are kind enough togive me".12THIRD LASTNINJAAfter the phenomenal success of LastNinja and Last Nino II on the 8 bit computers.System 3 are now about to unleashNinja Remix and Last Ninja IIINinja Remix is aimed at the new generationof C64 owners, and although theactual <strong>game</strong> is exactly the same asLast Ninja II, the music on all seven levelshas been remixed and an enhancedstatus area and an "excitingfilm-like animated intro" have beenadded.

This means no long-windedmultfloads. and much to System 3boss, Mark Cale's. satisfaction, a decreasedrisk of piracy. Other companiesseem to concur with this strategy,one example being Ocean, whose<strong>Commodore</strong> version of Special CriminalInvestigations will also be cartridgeOnly!NO MORE MEAN MACHINES?The more observant among you mayhave noticed that the Mean Machinessection no longer appears on the Contentspages, The reason for this is twofold- firstly, we're integrating the consolereviews into the rest of the mag.so the number of console reviews isn'trestricted to a few pages in the back ofthe mag any more - so that meansmore consoles coverage.And secondly, we are proud to announcethe arrival of the definitive consolemag - Mean Machines.

Blimey! Have I been busy this month orwhat? I mean, there I am, slogging myguts out for you C+VG readers, and thenthey drag me into doing the letters pagefor that new Mean Machines magl If youwant to overburden me even further, youmight as well write to me at YOB'S MAIL-BAG, C+VG, PRIORY COURT, 30-32FARRINGDON LANE, LONDON, EC1R3AU. If I'm feeling nice and you're letterisn't just 1,001 questions about UKMegadrive compatibility then I mighteven send you a software prize. Generousto a fault, that's me.THEPEGASUSDECISIONDear YOB,I have got a choice of buyinga Sega Master System, a Nintendo, or a Pegasus so whatdo you recommend'? And if Iadd a Sega Megadrive to thelist then what would you say?I think that such a cool computerwizard can answerthese simple questions.Mishaal Haddad. Abu DhabiYOB: Well, Mishaal, when itcomes to a choice betweena Sega, Nintendo or a Pegasus,I choose the mythicalflying horse every time, fir-20stly because you get muchbetter fuel consumptionout of it, and secondly, thethrifty gardener gets somethingto put on his rhubarbat the end of the day.A RIGHTLOAD OFWARLOCKSYo YOB!So howz life dude? Anyway,herez the Warlock of TMMhere wiv some worth aboutda' 64!64 is not dead but prettymuch alive and kickin' thebutt of the (L)Amiga. Loads ofex pirates are doin' <strong>game</strong>sunder labels like: 3D, Amok,Digital Marketing soon&There are loads of dix-magzlike Sea 'n Slime, Mambaarid even my own Kal-Ko(which is Swedish for nakedcow (don't ask! It's personal!)(I can imagine - YOB).Most pirates are goon' legal(such az me) but doin'demos! I've seen so cooldemoz that it's like lookin' ata (L)Amiga demo!Rapidly, software houses areseizing their chance and gettin'ex-pirates and democrews to do <strong>game</strong>s for them,and who else is better?Also, herez an advanced notice.In the 64 Hall of Fameare people like Jeff Minter,Andy Braybrook, Martin Walker.If these are the best, well(ha ha) look Out for me at thenext show and you'll see whyI'm one of the best around(providing I can get access toa 64 or a VCR),Anyway, here's my point inbrief:1. The 64 is not dead by along shot.2. There are "new wave- grammers pro-about (some docode and grafix - I do thewhole lot!)3. Software houses are gettingrid of the old programmers(bye Sensible Software(sorry!)) and getting better<strong>game</strong>s!4 Pirates are getting boredso they're doin• their own<strong>game</strong>s!So print this letter 'coz the 64is still going strong and,everyone should know it!Thanx and later on Dude,Warlock Arkihinos Ralazmusof the MOSH Masters, HertsYOB: Of course the C64isn't dead! But I just hopethe entire user base isn'tmade up of prats who continuallyreplace the letter"s" with -and z", call themselves Warlocks aArkihinosyRatazmus.Why ' can't you have a sensiblename, like I do fort h agoodness sake?n x "C+VGCOVER-UPDear YOB,I thought I'd state my opinionon 'Complaining Colin', I disagreedwith the things that hesaid about C VG, but onething I don't like (Colin didn'tmention it) is that the covers


keep coming off. No matterhow careful I am I end upwith a coverless C+VG. Ithink they should be reinforced.Eddie C Sommers, London,YOB: Maybe it's just youEddie. 'cos our officecopies get some fairlyrough treatment and thecovers never come offthem: But in future wellprint one issue of the magwith the cover chained onjust for you. Unfortunatelyour distribution companycan't guarantee that it'll getto your newsagent so you'lljust have to hunt aroundthe country for it.FRANKBLAMESJAMESGAMESDear YOB,I would like to raise a pointabout the James Bond<strong>game</strong>s that have been releasedover the past fewyears • they are all totallycrap!!! Domark have givenJames Bond a bad name! I'mnot saying Domark are nogood, because they havemade some pretty brilliant<strong>game</strong>s. Yet when it comes to007 adventures like Licenceto Kill and Live and Let Die,they're bloody terrible.How can a totally terrificmovie be the complete oppositeof the <strong>game</strong>?!? Softwarehouses, hear my word! Getthe rights and start writing upclassic Bond <strong>game</strong>s!!! Haveall the parts of a real Bondmovie as in the sampled 007theme music and the classicgun barrel scene with TimothyDalton (Moore andConnery were better, though)walking and firing and bloodcomes all over the screen atthe start of every film (rememberA View to a Kill on theC64?). Could you imaginehow hot that starting sequencewould look on theAmiga?Well what do you think guys?All I ask of you is to print thisout in your totally hot mag: Idon't care about any prize, allI want to do is get the messageacross to the softwarehouses...PS I've seen Sly Spy: SecretAgent. so how about it,Ocean? Get writing a CubbyBroccoli movie!Frank Sorgiovanni, Perth,AustraliaYOB: Aha! Well, funny youshould mention this Frank,because Domark's latestBond <strong>game</strong>, The Spy WhoLoved Me, (which is reviewedon page 98) is thebest of the lot, with lots ofplayability and Bond-typecar chases and destruction.You•II be pleased tohear it even has the viewdown-the-gun-barrelopeningsequence. so if you'rethat big a Bond fan you'dbest get hold of it as soonas hits those Aussieshelves!mer with the Shadows originally.Now that trivial point isout of the way, down to myone and only question.<strong>Is</strong> there a steering wheel orsomething similar that canplug into the Amiga's mouseport because controlling<strong>game</strong>s like Hard Drivin' andthe like is quite hard using amouse or trackball. Also, canI use the steering wheel forthe Sega Master System inmy Amiga's joystick port for<strong>game</strong>s which use a joysticknormally? iamb.Dear YOB,The <strong>game</strong>s up! I've discoveredyour secret, the reasonwhy C+VG reviewershave been caught reviewingin ACE magazine. Theanswer is that C+VG is ACEmagazine!Stop!

So could youask me these questions onthe official Megadrive:1. Which high street shopswill I be able to buy it from?2. In the first advert, therewere photographs of just six<strong>game</strong>s.

Unless you're mygranny, 'cos she's alwaysfitting me up for the jumpersshe knits - aboutwhich the less said, the betterI think.GAME BOYGEEZERDear YOB,By the time you print this letter(please, please, pleasedo) I will be the proud ownerof a Game Boy. I will be gettingthis Gameboy from myfriend's Dad who is in Japanas they are are a lot cheaperover there. Anyway. the reasonI'm writing to you is to getthese questions about theGame Boy answered:1. Now that the Game Boyhas been officially releasedover here, will the <strong>game</strong>s releasedover here be compatiblewith the Gameboybought in Japan? If not, do Ihave to send oft 10 Japan toget new <strong>game</strong>s?2_ Do English mail order companiessell Japanese Gameboycompatible cartridges?3. C+VG is brill, keep up thegood work.Thanks for answering myquestions.Steven Hargrave, Dorset,PS: Have you heard aboutthe light boy that lights upand magnifies the GameBoy? Hopefully I'm gettingOneYOB: Unlike the PC Engineand Megadrive, foreignGame Boys don't have tobe converted to UK TV formatand voltage, simply becausethey have their ownscreens and run off batteries,so there is nothingto stop a Japanese GameBoy working in the UK.This also means that thereshould be no compatibilityproblems between foreignmachines and cartridges,apart from the fact that any<strong>game</strong>s with lots ofJapanese text will either bereprogrammed for the English-speakingmarket or notproduced at all. Most importerssell Japanese carts,mainly because that'swhere the <strong>game</strong>s come outfirst.REPLAYRETARDDear Whoever.I have recently bought the<strong>game</strong> Kick Off 2 for the AtariST and I cannot work outhow to get a replay I haveread through the instructionsthrough and through and stilldon't understand, It sayswhen I score a goal I shouldpress R for a replay beforethe next kick oft But when Ipress the A button nothinghappens except the crowdcheer louder. I have triedeverything possible but nothinghappens! So please sendme some detailed instructionson how to do a replay!Richard Davey, Shenfield,Brentwood,YOB: Dear Richard, hereare some instructions fromC+VG's panel of ST KickOff 2 experts.1. Grasp the joystick firmlyin your hands.2. Use your skill to manoeuvreyour players up tothe opposing goal.3: Press the fire buttonwhen in front of the goal.4. If the ball goes into thenet, go to point 6.5. If you miss, try to regainpossession of the ball andgo back to point 2.6. As your players run towardsthe centre of thepitch, leaping in jubilationat having just scored agoals press the "A" key(that's on the keyboard).7. Do not press the "U" key,as that will not do anythinguseful.8. You should now be ableto watch the replay.<strong>Is</strong> that detailed enough? Actually,have you checkedthat the -13" keyboard actually works?kWell, e y just a thought...o nyTURTLESou rARE TOPS!Hiya YOBI'm Adam, I m twelve and inthree months I'll be the proudowner of a Nintendo TurtlePower Pack. I've been followingthe antics of Ja2. RobbieSwan and all you lot sinceDecember last year and I'veenjoyed every minute of readingyour reviews.So, yesterday I went down tothe newsagents to get mymonthly copy of C+VG - butwhen I got there I realisedthat I already had it! As I wasleaving I noticed silting on theshelf in front of me, the CompleteGuide to Consoles Volume3_I bought it and rushed home,I sat down, stuck my nose inand read! Mum reckonedthere wouldn't be anotherpeep Out of me for hours • butwhen I turned to page 131was up like a shot - and thenpage 15 • oh wow! It was decidedthat I am to get the NintendoTurtle Pack for Christmas- so could you answer afew questions:-1 <strong>Is</strong> TMNT a two player<strong>game</strong>?23


2. Are there any back issuesof the Complete Guide toConsoles?And could you recommendsome <strong>game</strong>s - I've alreadygot my heart set on Megaman2 and Double Dragon 2,Thanks a lot guys, see yalAdam Dawson, Wrexham,YOB: Unlike the arcade<strong>game</strong> (which it is completelyunlike. actually), the NintendoTurtles <strong>game</strong> is forone player only. We've stillgot some copies of ConsoleBook One in the office,but issue two has beensold out for quite a while. Ifyou want a copy of the firstone, send a cheque or postalorder for E3.45 (that'st2.95+50p post and packing)payable to Computerand Video Games to the addressin the front of themag. marking it "CONSOLEBOOK ONE ORDER".

Do you think that the Segaconversion of Double Dragonis better than the Amiga one?2. Can you get Double Dragon2, Beast Busters, FinalFight or HATE for the SegaMaster System?Ryan Humphries, West Yorkshire.YOB: Aaaagh! It's one ofthose question letters! Ihate these question lettersand the sender of the nextone gets a punch in theface. Well, at least thisone's not about Megadrives,so I suppose whileI'm here I might as well tellyou that none of those<strong>game</strong>s are available for theMaster System, and I thinkmost things are better thanthe Amiga version ofDouble Dragon.THE LASTSTRAWDear YOB,Would you please answersome questions about Mega.drives,,,Matthew Mak, AustraliaYOB: Right that's it!

We thought we'd.set the ball rolling this month with a full report on the recentInternational Computer Games Championship, which took place at the Earls CourtComputer Entertainment Show on Saturday, 15th September. The likeable rogues fromC+VG were there and actually made up a sizeable contingent of the US Gold-sponsoredBritish team.THE UK LINEUPManaging Ed, Julian Rignall, took the role of team leader,and he was to be assisted by his C+VG colleagues. RichardLeadbetter and (at the last minute) Robert The Beard" Swan.Last but not least was Simon Hadlington, the man whoproved invaluable during last year's competition in Paris, andwas to prove equally key to the teams performance in the1998 championship.THE COMPETITIONMan of the Match! Fable,Rossi, so happy he Pl.wears his cap the wrongway round!The competition was provided by teams from the USA, Italy.and France, each with four members. However, when thecompetitors assembled on Saturday morning the Frenchteam, backed by Infogrames were nowhere to be found!A boy scout runner was dispatched to the Infogramesstand only to discover that it was all closed up! The entireteam and Infogrames staff had brown-trousered themselvesand run off! <strong>What</strong> a load of onion-and-silty-stripy-jumper-wearing,c h o m p i h , sheep-burnin• cowards!GAME 1 - COLUMNSWith half the opposition OW of the way, the teams set to workon the British <strong>game</strong> choice, Megadrive Columns, in whicheach player had to go for the highest scores in the threeminute timed <strong>game</strong>.A further complication arose when it was discovered thatthe processor in the Italian Megadnve was running fasterthan those in the other machines, so their on-screen timerhad run out about halt a minute before the others! A replaywas demanded and the Italians came away with respectablescores.However, they were no match for our brave Tommies, whohad been practising furiously, though. and Julian and Simonclocked up the top scores of 18,166 and 16,213. The Italianteam took third and fourth place, leaving the American team(sponsored by US softco, Accolade) to bring up the rear. Butthey were about to play their Joker, because the next <strong>game</strong>up was their choice - the Amiga version of Accolade's ownthfpeId. higtAtomf mo:j inuthesstolt any'patibeaFoilonwhikncancnusteaprethis(wtag("shpeiWEExitoctimevithrboheStE! tiO!

Only Richardhad played the <strong>game</strong> before, but he rubbed his handsgleefully when he discovered that the competition was to getthe fastest lime to the first gas station. "There's only onebend to worry about," he told his team-mates.Armed with this vital info, the Brits got ready to drive allover the opposition. But! Another false start! In a fit of nationalisticfervour the Italian team had chosen to drive the FerranF40, instead of the rather slower Porsche 959 which the

While the Italians seemed rather flummoxedby the <strong>game</strong>, the British lads soldiered on, and turnedin two mediocre times after some catastrophic overtaking.hen Rob ruined a potential winning run when he forgot tostop in front of the garage and ran out of fuel! 'Why didn'tanyone tell me?" wailed the bearded one.Luckily, Simon was learning from the mistakes of his compatriots.and he finished the race in the fastest time of all,beating the best American time by 0.2 seconds!GAME 3 - E-MOTIONFollowing a short lunch break, the teams reassembled to takeonthe final <strong>game</strong> of the competition, US Gold's E-motion,which had been chosen by the Italian team. Little did theyknow that both Richard and Simon were experts at the <strong>game</strong>.and during lunch they had been trading various secret bonusesand time-saving ricochets. Unfortunately, the Americanteam had been watching over their shoulders and were soonpractising the same tricks themselves!Each player had three minutes to get the highest score inthis final round, throughout which the screaming comperewho lust happened to be Larry Sparkes, ex-marketing managerof Activision UK) continually exhorted the players to'show some EMOTION! while the players continually whisperedrude things about him under their breath. "Come on!We want the numbers!" he yelled into his failing microphone.Experts have yet to decipher this.With Larry Sparkes waiting in his ear, Richard wasn't doingtoo well, and he was forced to quit the <strong>game</strong> and restart threetimes, losing him a minute of time! But on the fourth <strong>game</strong>everything seemed to click, and he suddenly began rompingthrough the levels with pinpoint accuracy, collecting specialbonuses at every turn, and finally finishing the <strong>game</strong> with aneat-winning score of 41,250!However the best was yet to come, and when Simonstepped up for his heat he showed himself to be a true E-molionmaestro and knocked up a vast score of 69,950. whichwas tar and away the best score of the round!V Fresh from meeting the cast of Grange Hill, The championspause only for posing!CHAMPIONS!Hurrah! and Hurrooh! After trouncing the French and Spanishteams in last year's European Championship the British teamproved they're world-beating <strong>game</strong>splayers! Each team wasushered up to the stage to be congratulated by the outstandinglyfamous stars of Grange Hill, a slightly less famous Cockneycomedian (whose name eluded everyone), and of coursethe vast crowd of show-going punters who had gatheredaround. After a rousing chorus of Land of Hope and Glory,everyone held matches in the air and began to sway with patrioticpassion, and the team marched boldly off-stage to collecttheir prizes, and think of next year...LET'S HAVE A LOOK AT THEOLD SCOREBOARD...And so the competition was over.
