Corley Motors Ride On!
(1)FULL THROTTLE by LucasArts,1994
A bone crunching biker saga about Ben,
the leader of the Polecats. A bike gang
without a cause. Framed for murder, Ben
kicks,punches and bashes his path to clear
his name.
What else can I say. "Throttle" has the
Action, Humour and Story line that kept
all of us who played the game anxiously
waiting for the next breakthrough to
continue the story. Great Finish,
Great Soundtrack. Definitely, No.1.
(2)THE DIG by LucasArts, 1995
Another great game for the Star Wars gang.
Excellent musical score and alot of ooh!
graphics. A totally different headspace in
terms of the problem solving and info
gathering.

(3)LINKS386PRO by Access Software
Q: What is Flog?
A: It's Golf spelt backwards.
In shear time spent playing a computer
game, Links clobbers them all. Having
played a few thousand holes over the years,
I've had a few memorable shots (probably
less than ten!). But Hey! What a game.
(4)Stunt Island by Disney Software,1990
Strap yourself in and fly your way
to fame and glory as a movie stunt pilot.
Practise stunts, enter the competition,
make your own movies with props and planes,
or just take a plane out for a spin. For
a game that is a few years old, It still
has excitement in trying to master the
stunts and do it in one take. Really enjoyable.

(5) SimCity2000 by Maxis, 1993
There is a certain satisfaction in taking
a city from its' conception, nuturing it,building a sound infrastructure and tax system,watching it grow in size and population, then letting it burn to the ground.
(6) Aces Over Europe by Sierra Online, 1993
I like this flying sim. It has a wide variety
of missions and aircraft (including late war
jets). Hard not to zone out and get into the
combat in the midst of a twenty plane melee!
(7) Pinball Gold Pack by 21ST Century Entertainment Inc, 1996
What a good score this CD was. It is a
compendium of 20 different tables set in 4 standalone
releases. "Pinball Illusions" has the 4 most
advanced tables and worth the price of admission
all by themselves.
(8) Rebel Assault by LucasArts,1994
Okay, by now you can see I like this company. I play this game using the cheat code allowing you to jump
from episode to episode and restore damage.This lets me
run through the entire game in one sitting. The Cheat
"press joystick button once forward, back, left, right when the LucasArts logo appears at the start
of the game." Do this properly and you will hear
a ring and a silly voice saying LucasArts.
- codes
- press numbers 1-9 to change Level
- press esc to go to the next section
- press + to restore damage

(9) WarCraft 2 by Blizzard Entertainment, 1996
I got turned onto Warcraft and quickly
moved on to Warcraft 2. This game is fairly intense.
It requires constant attention. It's a good idea to go
through the campaign game and then you would
be ready to compete against other players. I do
play over a modem connection, (it took a few hours
to get it working!) I haven't got Win95 so I
can't checkout internet play just yet. But in the
meantime...Battle On!!!
(10) Scrabble by Hasbro Interactive, 1996
Yeah, the boardgame. I've always liked
this game. I most recently purchased the CD version.
The most impressive feature (for me) is the speedy
artifical intelligence. "Mavin" wastes no time
in laying down the tiles. It's easy to get a
scrabble fix without having to thrash your friends
at around the kitchen table. Although that's fun
too! Unfortunately, I'm getting my fair share of
the thrashings these days.
