Another in a long series of Electronic Arts' 'Star Performers', Interceptor takes the player into the avionic wonders of the F/A-18 Hornet and F-16 Falcon. You've got five missions of bogey-blasting to attempt in your efforts to become an American hero. Interceptor made a big splash when it first came out because it was the first flight sim ever to adopt filled vector graphics.

Interceptor does have a very easy control method and this makes flying the missions feel really good. Unfortunately, the likes of F-19 Stealth Fighter with their hundreds of missions (rather than five) make this otherwise cracking game seem rather dated, but if you're a beginner to flight sims, Interceptor is the one to go for!

Easy to get into and pretty playable, Interceptor is a roaring bargain at a tenner. Shame about the pesky spinning wheel copy protection, though.
