       midnight resistance - ocean

  you have to clear six levels of
  hostile figures, simply by killing
  them. the graphics are avergage
  (ocean-like), the music is quite
  good.
                       valuation : 67

        hong kong phoeey - hi tec

  you are the hero 'h.k.p.', using
  karate etc to defy your enemies.
  you have to clear the 'underworld'
  from suspicious objects. graphics,
  music between average and bad. v.:42

    turn it - tale software/kingsoft

  turn it, your task consists of
  selecting two same pieces, which
  are positioned nearby eachother.
  different colours(red & blue) and
  the apparent identity make the game
  more difficult. after 35 levels
  nothing else than saving your hiscore
  expects you.
  music is quite good, graphics are
  quite bad.


                       valuation : 63


 greg norman's ultimate golf - gremlins

  ultimate golf comprises a lot of
  different options, you can load
  different courses,the menu is
  abundant. the gameplay itself is
  composed of many options, good
  graphics and a high grade of reality.
  it is also possible to create own
  courses.
  the music in the beginning is not
  very successful.

                       valuation : 82
