RVF Honda

 RVF Honda puts you on board a realistically-modeled RC30 bike, with the task of becoming world champion. Initially you race at Clubman level on fictitious local tracks (one of which is set in MicroProse's old UK home of Tetbury), before moving up to UK and then World championship racing if you're good enough.

Each class of racing has 8 computer opponents, with the top 7 finishers in each of the championship's 8 races scoring points, and the races can be set to 5,10, 15 or 20 laps. The game's graphics appear to feature sprite-based bikes atop polygon scenery, which makes for very fast gameplay.

The circuits feature puddles of water to upset the bike's handling, and oil, which causes you to crash. It takes time to remount the bike and get back up to speed by revving it back up (more realistic than most motorbike games at the time, but frustrating as you suffer for mistakes more), and after a couple of crashes the bike's dashboard fails, making it much harder to ride competitively.

There is a two-player null-modem link-up mode, which can support an ST racing against an Amiga if you have the right cable.

 This is a 3D-based sequel to Rygar, a Tecmo title which was successful in the arcades and on many home systems.

In the land of Argos, Princess Harmonia is kidnapped by the Titans, who are led by ancient gods Cleopatra and a winged-demon character named Aristotle, in an attempt to release the evil spirit of Cronus. A young gladiator in training named Rygar hears her cries for help, and rushes to her rescue.

Armed with a legendary device called the Diskarmor, Rygar will explore the land of Argos, destroying enemies and powerful demons, while finding items and seeking information to aid him in his search for Princess Harmonia. Once Rygar has powered up his Diskarmor, it is up to him to stop Cleopatra and Aristotle, save the Princess and all of Argos from evil.

Ryse : Son of Rome

 The story of Ryse focuses on the story of Marius Titus, as he tells the Emperor Nero of his life, beginning with the murder of his family by barbarian bandits, and his subsequent quest for revenge, whilst serving the Roman Army.

During gameplay, the player takes control of Marius in third person perspective, whilst fighting Barbarians and issuing orders to other Roman soldiers. In keeping with the setting, combat is sword based, focusing on reflex based quick time events (QTE's).

Ryse's multiplayer mode is called Gladiator: Blood-Brothers mode, and is co operative themed, pitting several people up against gladiatorial challenges in the Colosseum. The more progress and XP the players make, they will earn gold, which can be spent on elixirs, weapons and amour for their multiplayer characters. Custom challenges can also be created by players.

 Ryū ga Gotoku Kenzan! is a side story within the Yakuza series, this time changing neon-lit Tokyo setting with a four hundred years older one: the city Kyoto of the year 1602, during the Edo period of the Japanese history.

The player takes the role of the historical character Miyamoto Musashi, a renowned swordsman who, after the battle of Sekigahara, came to Gion district of Kyoto and changed his identity to Kiryuu Kazumanosuke. Gion is a part of Kyoto where rich people indulge themselves in buying sexual favors. One day, a little girl named Haruka, comes to Kiryuu asking him to track down and kill an impostor pretending to be Miyamoto Musashi. At first Kiryuu refuses, but the girl's desperate attitude makes him reconsider and accept her plea.

Gameplay-wise, this installment is very similar to the other games of the main series. The protagonist explores the city, undertaking missions and facing enemies in combat that resembles fighting games. Kiryuu can fight bare-handed or with bladed weapons - one-handed, two-handed, or dual-wielding. He can specialize in any of these styles as well as participate in quick-time events known as "heat action". The game uses face scan technology to make game characters share visual similarities with the actors they are modelled after.
