Spectrum

A tasty pot-pourri of golden oldies and new titles, none of which are bad. Hydrofool is a great 3D forced perspective arcade adventure, Eliminator is an interesting racing game-cum-blaster, while all the rest are extremely polished and playable shoot-'em-ups. Highly recommended.

Amstrad

The same criticisms (or should that be compliments) as the Spectrum version. The Christmas Collection offers weeks of highly enjoyable computer entertainment. Check it out.

C64

Sanxion has been included instead of Hydrofool, making this a shoot-'em-up only package - which isn't a bad thing if you're an ardent blaster. There's literally weeks and weeks of fun to be had with this one.
