THRILL TIME GOLD 2 Elite £9.99 CONTENTS: BATTLESHIPS: Pointless computer rendition of the paper n' pencils game. SABOTEUR: Enjoyable, but limited arcade adventure. SCOOBY DOO: Graphically impressive and very entertaining beat 'em up set in a haunted house and starring everyone's fave pooch. AIRWOLF: Ageing and pretty ropey helicopter exploration game. FRANK BRUNO'S BOXING: One of the better attempts at a computer boxing game.

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... THRILL TIME GOLD II CONTENTS: Battleships, Saboteur, Scooby Doo, Airwolf, Frank Bruno's Boxing Spectrum/Amstrad/C64 £90.99 Well, well well. Would you believe it. All the titles on this compilation are already available on budget - most of them for two pounds. The best ones to buy are Frank Bruno's and Scooby Doo. Saboteur is alright, but the other two aren't really worth bothering with. Buy them separately and save cash.

AMSTRAD SCORES Overall: 53% Another pointless compilation. Just refer to the Spectrum criticism and you won't go wrong.

C64 SCORES Overall: 53% Yet again, refer to the Spectrum criticism. Buy your faves separately and save your cash for something better.
