"Hi, I'm Martin Shaw. This is Run The Gauntlet. If you wanna see action sports (chortle chortle), this is the place to be." Doesn't sound all that funny to me, but the sampled Martin clearly finds it entertaining, so fair enough. By a strange coincidence, 'entertaining' is exactly what this game isn't.

It's a sort of sports sim with Super Sprint overtones, licensed from the TV show. It's heavy on sampled sound and digitised graphics, and you'll have as much fun playing it as an asthmatic with a didgeridoo. The game is terminally unplayable, it's got absurd controls, and it chronically repetitive.

And that's more than you need to know about this terrible, terrible game.

All style, no content. A completely intolerable lump of, to coin a phrase, crap, and if you were thinking about buying it, get a lobotomy. Now.
