| Crash gave the Spectrum Super Sprint 58% overall in November 1987, with presentation 71%, graphics 50%, playability 58% and addictive qualities 57%. Its three reviewers gave 52% (Nick), 56% (Paul) and 65% (Mike). Nick saw "small cars on an uninteresting background" and called it "a licence wasted"; Paul called the collision detection the worst problem; Mike found it lacked "a little something". The general rating called it "a reasonable conversion, but it lacks the excitement of the arcade race". | printed p. 137, ratings boxprinted p. 137printed p. 137, Nick's commentprinted p. 137, Nick's commentprinted p. 137, Paul's commentprinted p. 137, Mike's commentprinted p. 137, comments box | Magazine |
