Competition<br />
we've got 20 copies of this ace game to<br />
serve up for QL owners!<br />
From Psion, the people who<br />
brought you the wondrous QL<br />
Chess program (one of the first,<br />
and still one of the best games<br />
programs for the QL) comes a<br />
conversion of their Spectrum<br />
game Matchpoint.<br />
This tennis arcade/Simula<br />
tion game brings you all the ex<br />
citement of Wimbledon to<br />
brighten up a few dreary winter<br />
evenings. Matchpoint allows<br />
you to play againsl the computer<br />
or another human oppo<br />

jnd tactics to be mastered that<br />
will keep you busy for a long,<br />
long time. As you get better,<br />
you'll be able to progress<br />
through the early rounds of the<br />
tournament right through to the<br />
finals, and the level of competi<br />
tion gets higher every step of the<br />
way!<br />
As soon as we saw Matchpoint<br />
running on the QL, we<br />

thought it would be a good idea<br />
to see if we could arrange a competition<br />
of some sort, and, after<br />
we made a few approach shots<br />
Psion responded by lobtyng 20<br />
copies of the game back into our<br />
court. Then, just to finish off the<br />
rally, they suggested we make a<br />
special offer of £1 off the retail<br />
