Super Trux

What's big, well 'ard and weighs 30 tons? A truck. What can you do with a truck? Well, you could always hurl it around nine European cities in order to win that most coveted of awards, the Supertrux Trophy. Just think, racing around the streets of Europe, and er, well, that's just about it, really.

As driving games go, this re-release is a tad behind the rest of the pack. Driving around is a bit simplistic (wot, no gear change?) and the graphics overall look a bit duff.

However, if you are absolutely desperate for a racer, and you don't have the wonga for a full-price game, you could do a heck of a lot worse than take a peek at this.

Er, where's the sound, guys? Either I'm hard of hearing, or there is none! Apart from that, this falls into the "not too good, not too bad" category.

C64

Graphics are blocko-city, sound is a feeble engine buzz, but apart from that, the same comments apply.

Amstrad

More colourful than the other version, but sound remains pretty poor. Again, the same comments apply.
