The gameplay remains as smooth as ever and practicing and memorising the tracks is still the best way to win. The races or battles do still take place in areas themed around a domestic environment such as breakfast tables, backyards and bathtubs. The characters from the Micro Machines 2 return in various types of military uniforms and fatigues, the vehicles are now all military themed and the music is more reminiscent of that heard on a parade ground. Micro Machines Military is just like the previous games, only fitted with weaponry and painted with camouflage.

If you had followed the series up to Military, you would already know most of what you need. Also, I imagined multi-player would be truly improved with weapons, but like with any great idea, it all comes down to execution. With games like Rock ‘n Roll Racing including weapons, it was great to see Micro Machines doing the same. Micro Machines Military followed Turbo Tournament ’96, and I was immediately sold on the idea. It was also the cause of many fights, resets and my Mega Drive getting beat-up by being pulled off its table. The game acted very much as a precursor to the fun that would later be had on games like Mario Kart 64 with the four-player, split-screen option.

I had played the original Micro Machines first, but Turbo Tournament was where most of the enjoyment was had. My family had three and a Master System controller, so it worked. Four player games were around before, but most were sports titles and required an extra accessory to play, in addition to the extra controllers.

Micro Machines 2: Turbo Tournament is a memorable game, not only for its tight gameplay but for the J-Cart innovation that allowed four players comfortably (and eight more awkwardly) to play the game together.
