Superb shoot'em'up which doesn't let off for one minute. Massive explosions, excellent attention to detail, full-bodied sound and a huge range of graphics make this the best shoot'em'up on the platform. Two player simultaneous option is great fun.

Title: Tanks (£25.95)
Rather simplistic fire-missiles-over-the-hill type game, but with the added bonus of allowing lots of players and upgrades if you do well, and also computer-controlled opponents. A good game for multi-players, although a bit boring on your own I expect.
