Tired of steering Lara Croft around her virtual world? Then have a go at
Biosys and try restarting the computer system controlling Biosphere 4. The game
puts you inside a series of domes, each of which contains a different biome, and
probably teaches you more biology than you’ll realise at the time. But don’t
underestimate the computer needed to run it—you’ll need a fast processor
and lots of RAM for it to look its best. Published by Take 2 Interactive
Software, £34.99.
