Sega Touring Car Championship 1998 Simulation
This stupendously banal racing game seems to have consciously been designed to disappear without a trace; why else would Sega have made it so determinedly mediocre? Surely some nefarious plan lies behind the game's utter lack of personality. Perhaps each disc is equipped with a surveillance device - this would explain why Sega wants you to forget you own it the moment after you've gotten home from the store. Or perhaps the stakes are even higher. "It is the greatest art of the devil to convince us that he does not exist," wrote Baudelaire. Sega Touring Car Championship is so...
Championship Backgammon 1987 Strategy
Championship Backgammon from Spinnaker is an excellent early backgammon computer game - probably the first to offer a competent AI (a computer player named "Max") which is strong enough to challenge frequent players. There are 5 difficulty levels in the game, and you can set up your own positions, choose whether or not to match scores, change game speed, and toggle other options. The board looks decent enough in 4-color CGA, and making your moves is a simple matter of typing the numbers for various positions. Although it has naturally been superceded by newer, more powerful games like Jellyfish, Championship...
Total Club Manager 2003 2002 Sports
A sports management game is not only number crunching and trying to assemble the best possible team. While this approach may be successful, as the Championship Managers series proves, it also leads to a more tactical-level simulation than a real management game. These simulations are known in the US as the Season Ticket and Mogul series (and a whole host of various on-line fantasy sports games) but due to the unique nature of American sports leagues, implementing a managerial game is impossible. A true sports management game needs to give the player the opportunity to build up his team: to start...
Major League Baseball 2K12 2012 Sports
2K Sports' professional baseball series returns with the expected tweaks and changes that an annual sports franchise requires. The core play modes, batter-pitcher interface, and fielding system is similar to 2011's game, but with various refinements. On the field, players will master a new throwing system that requires a degree of timing to execute perfect strikes. Instead of pre-loading throws to a base, for example, players must allow their fielders to plant their feet to maximize a throw's accuracy and effectiveness. On the mound and at the plate, the game's dynamic AI will have each pitcher and batter's ratings increase or...
Batman: The Movie 1989 Amiga
The Dark Knight has returned. The success of Fran Miller's groundbreaking graphic novel has revitalized a hero presumed extinct. Further novels, repeats of the TV series and a new film have followed. Now there is the game of the film, pitting Batman against the Joker in what can only be called a cataclysmic confrontation. The battle takes place over five sections, related to scenes in the film. Curtain up on the Axis chemical factory which is being attacked by jack Napier and his cronies. Batman has to find his way through the plant to Jack and deposit him into the acid...
Savage: The Ultimate Quest for Survival 1996 Educational
The back of the box claims that Savage: The Ultimate Quest for Survival, by the Discovery Channel Multimedia, is the "most powerful real-time 3D animal action game available." The screen shots looked fantastic: beautifully rendered backgrounds with amazingly high levels of detail. The idea of playing a lion learning to survive in the Serengeti sounded a little strange at first, but I figured that if the game was as good as it looked, Savage might be a pretty cool game. Unfortunately, many hours and several days later I figured I had had more than enough frustration and disappointment than I...
Demon Stalker 1988 Arcade action
Demon Stalkers is essentially a Gauntlet clone. You must travel through 99 mazes, before meeting the final demon. The game features different enemies as you progress through the mazes, with clues to progression built in. There's a 2-player co-operative mode. The in-built level editor uses pull-down menus, and offers a high level of flexibility. As well as creating actual levels, you can create a integrated storyline and game world, as the text on scrolls can be edited. ...
Super Jeopardy! 1991 Puzzle
Super Jeopardy! is based on the popular Jeopardy! TV game show. In this digital incarnation, 4 players compete at answering reverse trivia questions in trademark Jeopardy! fashion-- i.e., the host provides the answer and a player has to provide the questions. As many of 4 human players can participate, with the remaining slots filled by the computer. Competition takes place in quarter-final, semi-final, and final round modes. A player will select a question from one of 6 categories. The game gives the answer to the question and the players use their controllers to buzz in. At that point, a player has...
AI Wars: The Awakening 2000 Arcade action
Cyberspace -- a realm of gameplay that has remained relatively untapped. For most of us the inside of a computer doesn't sound like a fun, exciting, or even an interesting place to be. In fact we really don't give our computers much thought until we have a problem with them, then however, it's as if the world has come to an end. Over the years we've seen glimpses of life inside a computer with the 1982 movie "Tron" and the dangers of computer AI gone awry in "Wargames", or its effects on humans in "The Lawnmower Man." But perhaps the...
