JOYSTICK JURY Are you ready for a software siege? It's time for our trusty panel of joystick jurors to line up all the latest and greatest games and put them through their paces! Let Ross Holman, Rick Robson and Dougie Bern lead you to the hottest arcade action around! STREET HAWK Ocean £6.95 Dougie: Street Hawk's another one of those TV tie-ups of which we all expect great things. I'm sure you're as disappointed as me to learn that once again, the computer game bears no relation to the TV show. I just wish for a change that someone would actually do a good TV or movie game. Anyway, back to the game, if like me you're a fan of the original Defender, this game's for you. First, you have to charge up your Street Hawk by gaining points through the accuracy of your laser firing. Once you've got the juice then you're off, your mission ?... to blast the enemy helicopters to bits and rescue the survivors - simple innit!!, You've also got to pick up the pieces of some of the enemy helicopters to get you on to the next level. Keep a keen eye on the twin scanners to make sure you know where the next attack is coming from. All in all, if you're a Defender fan, then this game's got some of the fastest, flicker-free, hi-res sprites that I've ever seen on the Speccy. And it's full of hi-speed Defender style action, though I'm not sure that my software collection really needs another Defender style program
