DARK FORCE £12.99 CONTENTS: LAST NINJA II: Brilliant six-level arcade adventure with plenty of beat 'em up action. DARK SIDE: A bit plodding, but nevertheless an ingenious first-person 3D arcade adventure. BATMAN: Based on the comic, this arcade adventurer is addictive and rewarding. R-TYPE: Stunning shoot em up with horrible aliens and plenty of extra weapons to blast them.

COMPILATION CRAZZZY Christmas is just around the corner, and just like every other year, that means it's time for software companies to start wheeling out compilations by the ton. Julian Rignal has been sorting out the bargains... DARK FORCE CONTENTS: Last Ninja II, Dark Side, Batman, R-Type Spectrum/Amstrad/C64 £12.99 Containing a mixture of shooting, adventuring and fighting, Dark Force is a powerful package of high quality games. Last Ninja II is great, R-Type is one of the best ever Spectrum shoot 'em ups, Batman (again, not the game of the film) is brill and Dark Side is an engrossing and atmospheric 3D arcade adventure.

AMSTRAD SCORES Overall: 81% R-Type is a bit wobbly on the Amstrad but Dark Side, Batman and Last Ninja II are all great, making this a good value for money compilation which will keep you glued to your Amstrad.

C64 SCORES Overall: 81% A great compilation, let down only by the slow and rather cumbersome Dark Side. There's hours and hours of play in this one.
