My quest to play every game to have been #1 on the UK’s official games charts has taken me to the end of 1994!
1994′s #1s presented an abundance of sequels including more flying, more fighting, and of course more football. Outside of that there was an increase in mouse management and a sprinkling of the FMV age, plus the Amiga in a sick (in all senses) holding pattern.
