There you were, taking the latest Foourd T-Bird out of a test drive after trading in your clapped out old Laader, and suddenly you find yourself trapped within the alien ghetto. Time to fight your way out.

The T-Bird is the ultimate in futuristic transportation in this marvellous shootie from Mastertronic, armed with a host of death-dealing weaponry which can be enhanced by running into special pods after you've destroyed the latest wave of aliens.

The Spinner will keep you topped up with energy, the Sidearm will do away with baddies to your left and right, and you can use the hyperspace option to blast the whole screen around you.

Watch out for collisions as your shield will only take so much, and you'll need as much of it as you can spare to do away with the big bad mothership at the end of the run.

As a budget game, T-Bird is packed with action, and what it may lack in the colour stakes is more than compensated for by the excellent sonics and variety of enemies to blast away.
