Subway Vigilante

Gah! Kids today. They just spend all their time hanging around London Underground stations, beating people up until the 18.55 to Piccadilly Circus turns up. Justice Bronson-style is your vocation, and even though you're only a few pixels tall, you've got five fighting manoeuvres to cream the opposition with.

Well, you would be able to cream the opposition if your on-screen counterpart was a bit faster. His cat-like reflexes are more concussed tortoise-like, joystick control being annoyingly unresponsive. This, and the fact that the opposing skinheads regenerate three seconds after you've totalled them makes the game so difficult as to be unplayable. Buy at your peril.

A poor Renegade clone, with very few graphic, sound or gameplay merits.
