The goal, as in most racing games, is to beat out a field of opponents and cross the finish line first.

Virtually a carbon-copy or the rrcade original, Super Monaco GP takes the Genesis to ts utmost limits in graphics, sounds, and play. This game is as fantastic as the pictures below look.

EGM has just learned from its sources that Sega recently hired the 1991 world champion Formula One race driver - Mr. Ayrton Senna as the development supervisor for Sega's newest racing game - Ayrton Senna's Super Monaco GP 2.

This new super simulation will be programmed for the Genesis, Sega Master System 2, Game Gear and Mega Drive game systems. The 16 bit versions and the Master System cart will be released in March 1992. The Game Gear version will come out in July 1992.

Here's the scoop. The 16 bit version will be 8 meg plus a battery. The Master System and Game Gear versions will be 2 megabit carts. The 16 courses in the 1991 F1 GP Series will be programmed in as will a few extra courses designed by Mr. Senna himself. The battery backup will allow the player to save their best records and positions in various races for continuation of play at a later point in time. More next issue!
