1st August 1989
An enjoyable sports simulation that offers a fair amount of playability. But, if playing from cassette, the multi-load is a pain. Read Review
Crash
1st May 1989
A really pleasurable game, well worth the asking price - though much better on disk, without the multi-load hassle. Read Review

Quite mouth watering in its initial stages but very badly let down by multi-load. Not so bad if there was some substance once loaded, but it's all over in seconds. Read Review
