Probably the most outrageous 'adult comic' became the most outrageous computer game, and has finally been re-released on bulging budget form. Lummy! Way aye mun, and all northern things that.

With Viz: The Computer Game (68%, Issue 32) you get to choose bewtweenJohnny Fartpants, Buster Gonnad or Biffa Bacon. Once you've chosen the character that suits you the most, you have a little limbering up to do. Jonny exercises his rear flaps by farting his way up the flatulence scale, buster uses his unfeasibly large testicles to squash dough and Biffa either smashe bricks or downs as many pints as possible.

Once that's all over with, it's onto the race where our man on the telly, Roger Melly, is commentating. Make your way through the obstacle course pushing and shoving your way past the other two. Tree stumps and holes are just a few of the things that lay ahead.

The look of Viz has been captured brilliantly, although the same isn't true of the language (thankfully). Having said that, though, it's not much of a game: the programmers seem to have relied solely on the licence and not on gameplay. Which is a shame really - this title could have provided hours of rip-roaring fun.
