It may be raining outside, but inside you can settle down with this number one best seller - beat McEnroe at his own game!

Match Point is a tennis simulation packed with features. Play the computer, a friend or watch an exhibition match. Use joysticks or keys to play an accurate game, with many complex shots possible. It's all there - ball boys, an umpire and an enthusiastic crowd.

Graphics are quite impressive, well animated and smooth. To stop colour resolution problems only two colours are used on court - green and black - and so it is a little difficult to spot the (small) ball sometimes. By contrast, the crowd is every colour of the Spectrum!

If you like tennis, you'll love this. If you don't, you'll probably like it anyway. Game, set and match to Psion!
