*Gex - A splendid platformer with graphics pretty much on a par with Donkey Kong Country, Gex has long been awaited by 3DO fans and might just help to keep the flagging system head above water.
*Wing Commander 3 - This has all the sheen of a highly polished glass eye, and just as easy to see through. This is a 3DO extravaganza and much friendlier than the stupid PC version.
*Flashback - Do I really have to say anything about this game? Is there a format it hasn't appeared on? Dated.
*Rise of the Robots - This 3DO version is certainly the worst by a long chalk, considering the alleged capabilities of the hardware.
*Shanghai Triple Threat - Highly addictive, brain stretching puzzle game that'll have you sat scratching your head. Trouble is, its so bloody simple in the graphics and sound departments.
*Slam n Jam - Sluggish. That was my first impression of this. An hour later I was still playing it, and I will categorically state now, this this is the most realistic basketball simulation I have ever played.
*Syndicate - The console versions have all been a little disappointing, and this version seems slow and dated and will only please those desperate to play the game.
