MiG 29 Soviet Fighter

Oh my goodness, those naughty capitalist Americans have invaded! Time to unleash the MiG-29 interceptor and blow away those evil Yankees! Unfortunately Codemasters' attempt to create a budget version of After Burner is sadly lacking in just about every department.

The graphics are seriously duff with little or no animation, and the plane looks as if it should go on a diet! The sound is dreadful, and enough to inspire you to smash your telly into a thousand tiny fragments, and the gameplay (what there is of it!) is boring and dull to the max.

Even with such "amazing" weapons as a nuclear bomb (cleverly represented by a blob with an "H" written on it), this game is completely devoid of any redeeming characteristics whatsoever, unless you set fire to the disk to keep warm during the long winter months!

Amiga

Bleeurgh! MiG-29 is an absolute travesty of a game, and certainly not worth the seven quid asking price!

Atari ST

Just as crap as the Amiga version, if not more so! Leave it well alone, unless you enjoy flushing your money down the loo.
