Voyageurs Du Temps, Les - La Menace
June 8, 2002 by ST Graveyard
It wasn't easy for the little french "Delphine Software" when they released their first adventure game "Future Wars" in 1989! The adventure market was reined by those other two monster companies, "Sierra" and "Lucasfilm Games", yet "Delphine" managed to astonish gamers worldwide. Featuring an intriguing story, great controls and superb graphics, never before looked an adventure game this good. We were introduced to their Cinematique system! A point and click system similar to the one used by Lucasfilm. Read the review of Voyageurs Du Temps, Les - La Menace
Bomb Jack
May 30, 2002 by ST Graveyard
Most of you might have noticed it by now, you don't have to play this game for its graphics and sound effects. It's in gameplay were this thing shines! You play as Bomb Jack, and you have to defuse all the bombs on each screen, even though they'll never blow up! "Bomb Jack" is a game in the vein of "Bubble Bobble", only a bit faster. Our hero has no problem flying to the top of the screen. Just press the fire button to lift off, press the fire button again to make him stop and let him float down. Press the fire button repeatedly to skillfully glide through the air! Read the review of Bomb Jack
Jimmy White's Whirlwind Snooker
May 22, 2002 by ST Graveyard
The first 3D snooker game...It looks fantastic! You can have a nice overview from a static "behind the white ball" viewpoint, or you can switch to a "follow the shot" camera view. Everything scrolls silky smooth and looks realistic. I just can't think of anything negative here...The aiming, the shots, the collisions with the other balls or with the cushions...It's almost real!

Robocop
May 14, 2002 by ST Graveyard
By now you all must think I hate this game. Well, not really, it's actually pretty fun to play, especially if you're a fan of the movie. Robocop on the ST is a straight forward run, jump and shoot game. You start with 3 lives and its your job to kick (or shoot) the sh*t out of the scumm that attacks you to finally reach the end of a level! There are some power ups to grab (like the three way shooter), extra power and more! The game is loosely based on the events seen in the movie. You'll encounter the motorcycle gangs, you'll have to do some gun practice...Read the review of Robocop
No Second Prize
April 30, 2002 by Lorenzo
Well, you' ve seen the screenshots, and maybe you' ve all been wondering what' s so special about it... I mean, there' s the track, the grass, a few obstacles and objects scattered here and there, and the bikes are only made up of a few ugly polygons... yep, alright, but you gotta see the scrolling ! It' s incredibly fast and as smooth as silk, and the fps rate never slows down, even when there are many drivers on the screen... wonderful !!!Read the review of No Second Prize
