[AMSTRAD CPC] Hyper Sports – Longplay & Review

Review and longplay / walkthrough for HYPER SPORTS on the Amstrad CPC!

I’m going to be looking at various Olympic / track and field / joystick waggling ‘n’ destroying games over the next few weeks seeing as the London 2012 Summer Olympic Games are upon us in less than a month!

This is the sequel to the legendary coin-op “Track & Field” – whilst not as successful, it was still really popular and had less emphasis on button-mashing (or joystick waggling in this conversions case!). Some you may remember this game being featured on kids TV – the BBC’s “First Class” programme!

Like the Speccy version this is missing the arcade originals final event – the pole vault, but ends rather sourly on a buggy, broken and impossible weight lifting event….
