Yet another in the long line of blockbusting Quattro compilations from Code Masters, and this one looks set to be every inch the hit that its predecessors were. Starting off with some explosive shooty material, your first quest is to destory the enemy battlestar that threatens all known life forms in 3D Star Fighter. Taking on the might of the alien attack force with just your on-board computer, Blinky, to help you, the world rests on your shoulders and on the speed of your trigger finger in this excellently devised space shooty. Smart graphics and action-a-plenty. Next up is a spot of realistic jet fighter simulation in Mig 29. Taking up the latest Soviet aerial battleship is no mean feat but, once you've mastered the take-off, landing and in-flight controls, it's off to some frighteningly good battle scenarios from, air-to-air, through air-to-sea, to air-to-ground attacks. Pay attention to your weaponry and fuel reserves and take the batte to the enemy in this fast moving battle simulator. Operation Gunship sees you in control of an awesome array of firepower as you brave all to rescue your comrades from the jaws of the enemy. This one really is about speed of trigger finger, as you get set to blast everything that gets in your sights. An absolute must for shooty fans, with some superb graphics and atmospheric sound effects. Last up is the futuristic yarn Terra Cognita. Featuring super fast scrolling, this arcade blast will have you falling out of your chair with tension as you battle to save the planet Krion from the evil warrior robot. Over 100 different screens and super -smooth scrolling make this an incredibly playable blast, rounding off an incredible collection of non-stop action that no serious joystick waggler should be without. Well done again, Code Masters. ACU #9107
