F1 Tornado (Zeppelin Games)
Climb inside a top-of-the-range fighter, sit on a huge cushion to see out, and away you go. Yes, it's Gulf War time again as you relive those moments you never quite got to see on the telly. It's another sideways-scrolling shoot-'em-up, with waves of planes whizzing into the arc of your blazing machine-guns, big ships shooting at you and all manner of tempting weapons for you to pick up.
You can move forwards and back a bit, as well as up and down, and you'll need to be quick to avoid all the nasties flying in your direction. It's all exciting stuff, and you'll soon get into that 'just-one-more-go' way of thinking. So if you've avoided buying a game of this sort until now, congratulations. You're even stingier than I am. But it's about time you got hold of one. And F1 Tornado is as good as any other scrolly shoot-'em-up. It's just a wee bit similar to all the others, that's all. (Although even this won't matter to you if it's the first one you've ever bought).
F1 is fast enough, pretty responsive and makes a great cup of coffee (oh sorry, that last one's my mum). So if you want to blow up some jet planes and sink some shipping, get your old half-pees out and persuade your local stockist that they're still legal tender.
On the other hand, if you want some coffee, pay me 14p and I'll ask my mum.
Frame Rate
Better than your average shoot-'em-up even If the topic's not very topical. Buy it if you've never tried anything similar.
