> SAS COMBAT SIMULATOR by Codemasters


Completed by Vinny Mainolfi

Way back in the eighties I spent most of my pocket money, and then hard earned cash, on Mastertronic and Codemasters titles. It was rare that I ever purchased a full-priced Commodore 64 title*. To be honest, I didn't see the point when the cheaper labels were releasing titles such as this little gem. Okay, so the title was misleading (simulator!), but it was still a great game to play and had some cool music from Steve Barrett. Anyway, enough babble, here's the ending ...

* I did purchase the full-priced version of Sanxion, Delta, and Auf wiedersehen Monty - to name but a few :-)


"Isn't this Green Beret?"


The End.

HOW WAS IT COMPLETED? Tell you what - as much as I loved this game, it weren't 'alf hard! I must have spent weeks trying to complete it but I just couldn't seem to manage it. It wasn't until mid 2007 that I found a cracked version which offered me a trainer (phew!). Thankfully, it allowed me to complete the game and finally see the ending.

SO WHAT HAPPENS?: Upon reaching the final stage - which remarkably looks like Green Beret - you are presented with a congratulations screen (see above screen shot). It reveals the story's ending, which suggests a follow-up (were they referring to a possible release of SAS Combat Sim 2?) This screen is accompanied by a quick, but cute musical ditty.

COMMENTS: It's hard not to be biased with this ending review as I really fell in love with the game. So the ending isn't brilliant, but it completes the story and it has a nice little ditty at the end. Plus, it delivers more than many lacklustre, fully-priced titles of the late eighties.

FINAL SAY: It's okay.

G.E. RATING: 5 / 10
