Random review

Xenon can easily be considered as the mother of the 16-bit shooters. It looks beautiful, it sounds cool and it plays great in the first level. After that, all hell breaks lose and the game starts to become unplayable for me. It's just extremely difficult.

Did you know?

Rumours say the operating system of the ST, called TOS, is short for "Tramiel Operating System".
