While this was intended to let the user display the image how they preferred on a 4:3 monitor or TV, it had the unintended effect of allowing square pixels and an undistorted image when viewed anamorphicly on a 16:10 monitor. The aspect ratios and letterboxing were intended, widescreen support was not, so the [gametag=widescreen]widescreen[/gametag] tag does not apply here.* [22]* [52]* [37]***The Japanese title of the game is アウターワールド, but I'm unaware which ports were released in Japan to apply this correctly.

The common consensus is that this is the best home version of Golden Axe a person could own.' - Ben from DAC (see links) [b]Trivia:[/b] (from MobyGames) 'The game is banned in Germany for violence (ban issued on 30.05.92). The game 'Golden Axe: The Duel' is not affected.' --I have looked into this, and it appears all ports may have been affected, but certainly the Genesis, Arcade, and Amiga ports. [Garrett]
Super Off Road	Virgin Games;Mastertronic (Graftgold)	1990	afterburner earth jumping landvehicle latemodernperiod motorracing motorsport mp-versus offroadracing present professionalathlete shopping wheeledvehicle	Enter the world of off-road racing as 4 vehicles will face each other, on a series of tracks which are based around flipped and reversed versions of a core selection. Fame, glory and bikini clad women await your victories and the taste of dirt awaits if you fail. Let a computer car beat you and you lose one of your 3 credits. Successful races bring more money, which can be used to soup up their machine. Boosts to top speed, grip and acceleration can be purchased, and your nitro boost must be kept topped up. If you are desperate for upgrades, you can buy into your spare credits. Only your off-road driving abilities will be enough to pull you to first place in these races. Play alone or with up to 3 other players (depending on the version) in this classic arcade game.* [17]* [83]* [102]* [33]* [7]* [23]* [2]* [62]* [82]* [63]* [52]* [37]
