When we last saw Paul and Vince, they had saved the Colonel and were about to head for home in a special plane given to them by the General. But then, while in flight over the ocean, the sky suddenly blackens - the ocean begins to churn - and the plane goes spinning! A booming voice fills the cockpit: "Hear me, Warriors! Zang Zip, the War Dog, has enslaved the people of Earth. Only you can save us from his grip of evil!" Caught in a time warp, hurled thousands of years into the future, Paul and Vince know they have no choice but to meet this impossible challenge head-on. After all, they are professionals... they are the Ikari Warriors!

A conversion of the arcade game, Ikari Warriors is a vertically scrolling action game. One or two players fight their way through a variety of terrain, such as jungles, rivers, and ruins. Along the way different weapons can be found, including machine guns, grenades, and rocket launchers.

In the game, three karateka fight against each other on a beach, trying to be the first to score six points. After every two rounds, there is a bonus game which is either deflecting bouncing balls or kicking away bombs. The C64 version of the game only has the ball bouncing bonus game, and not the bomb bonus game. The game can be played by one or two human players, at least one fighter is always controlled by the computer. Unlike its predecessor, International Karate, there is only one backdrop. However, different parts of the backdrop can be recoloured to several different themes by the players using specific keystrokes. The Amiga version of the game (and possibly other versions, unconfirmed) had a number of "background antics", a Pac-Man would appear, a spider would descend, and a U-boat's periscope would occasionally be seen in the harbour. In addition, pressing the "T" key would cause the trousers of all three protagonists to fall down, after which they would do a double-take.

As with the 2004 edition, IHRA Professional Drag Racing 2005 is a simulation of drag racing. However, the 2005 edition has been radically changed to be more accessible and is built on an entirely new code base. The controls have been modified and many functions have been automated. The graphics have also been improved, along with a new physics model. Included is an arcade mode, in both singleplayer and multiplayer, as well as a new simulation mode. In the simulation mode, there is a series of racing tests/tutorials to teach the basics, then purchasing and customizing a car, then going drag racing. The game contains 24 official drivers and 11 official tracks. There are 35 vehicles and 70 vehicle components to customize, from tires to transmissions to electronics. The game features the official endorsement of the International Hot Rod Association.

Ignition is an arcade racing game released in 1997 by Virgin Interactive. It features miniature cars, much like Death Rally. Compete in a "Championship", "Single Race", "Time Trial" and "Pursue Mode" and race through 7 tracks with 11 different unique vehicles of your choice.

Ignite is something utterly different than any other racing game before. There is so many ways to win and positions can change until the last second and even after that, when everybody already crossed the finish line. Excitement never stops in Ignite as you may never be a sure winner at the lead and you never lost the race just because you are at the last position. Key Features: * Brand new type of game play: o Score mode is an interesting new twist to the good old racing genre: Gather score and burn it away to get ahead or collect score and jump to the front at the end of the race. o In Crash mode you start with a set amount of score. If you hit a wall you lose some of it. When it runs out, you are out. o In Run Out mode your score is running out. You may replenish your score by hitting objects and also burn it away to get to the next checkpoint faster. * Random atmosphere: From sunshiny, to fogy the same racetrack may have a very different feel between two races. * 3 totally different types of racing cars: Race the American muscle, the import or the super sport cars. They all need a different way of driving but with the right strategy they all can win. * 25 racetracks: From the inner city to the rural areas, from race tracks to city streets plenty of asphalt to race on. * 27 Unlockable Achievements: You may be among best and run a fast lap, but can you perform these stunts
