1. Disney's Treasure Planet

Rated: E - - This game is based on the animated movie, a science fiction version of the Stevenson novel. You are Jim, a cabin boy, befriended by the ships' cyborg cook, John Silver. You must contend with dangerous booby traps and bloodthirsty pirates. Great for Disney fans.

2. Konami Gradius III & IV

Sony Playstation Space Shooter: Starfighter Sanvein
Gradius started out as an arcade game before migrating to the small screen. It's a classic flying shooter game that allows you to evade enemy fire while returning it with a variety of weapons.

3. Tonka Space Station

Rated: E - - Designed primarily for younger players, this game allows you to build your own spacestation. It's like Sim City in space.

4. Star Wars: Rebel Assault II

Rated: KA - - "A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away..." The graphics for this game were ahead of its time, with original, live-action Star Wars footage. It presents a completely new chapter in the Star Wars saga.
