Quattro Coin-Ops (Codemasters)

Another four games for £3.99 is £0.9975 a game, which might not be too bad. The games are Fast Food, Pinball Simulator, Pub Trivia and Fruit Machine.

Fast Food is a Pacman affair, with a moveable blob, ghosts and, oh, everything else. It's fast and fun (if you like that sort of thing, and I do), Pinball Simulator is just that. Flipping away for hours can get a bit boring but it's certainly playable.

Pub Trivia asks you lots of questions about pubs (only kidding, it asks you about loads of topics) and Fruit Machine lets you watch piccies of cherries whizz past your eyeballs. None are brilliant but they're all diverting for a rainy afternoon when you're in bed with concussion and it's cheaper than a return ticket to New York.

Frame Rate

Cheap and cheerful, just the way I like 'em. Four playable games and a cassette box useful for storing all those half-pennies you saved up.
