Favourite comment" The Lee Sprite averages six frames of animation per move which, compared to Turbo's four, is pretty impressive"
Sounds ridiculous now doesn't it!

Commodore User "Daley Thompson's Olympic Challenge" C64
​
Favourite comment" It is Daley himself who steals the show, though, being beautifully drawn (he's even the right colour this time!) and extremely well animated as he goes through a variety of different manoeuvres."
Commodore user "Target Renegade" C64
​
Favourite comment" The graphics alone kick Renegade square in the kidneys. This version is great to look at and just as good to play."
ST Action "Push Over" Atari ST, Commodore Amiga
​
Favourite comment" The intro sequence is excellent."
​
Management did have a word with me about the intro sequence at the time, they said it took a whole amiga floppy disc for it!

Super Play Magazine"Pugsley's Scavenger Hunt" Snes
​
Favourite comment" The Characters are great too-the baddy sprites are all true individuals, the drowning cats, in particular, really making an impression on the soppier members of the Super Play team."
​
I can assure you the cats were not drowning, they were wearing snorkelling gear!.
