COMPETITOR GAMES

(1 / 1)


Two new Sega pieces look interesting, as seen in new European trade mag:

1.  GP Rider - 2 monitor motorcycle racing game.  Plays like many of their
other racing games with very little new or exciting.  Supposedly getting
good word of mouth over in Europe.  This was testing in upright version
at Milpitas Golfland last week and may still be there.  Advertisement show
(shows) a cabinet with two motorbike seat units (similar to Four Trax seats).

2.  Ghost Hunter - Another 2-monitor game but this one has an interesting
twist....the monitors are superimposed and accomodates 3 players (2 seated
and one standing in middle).  The superimposed monitors are suppose to give
a good 3D effect.  

Also heard from the field that Namco may be showing a Rolling 
Thunder II at Jamma.
