Think about Spy Hunter with a motorbike instead of the car and in isometric 3D, and you will have a pretty close idea of what Mean Streak is. You can also make your bike leap into the air and should be careful not to damage it too much or make it run out of fuel.
A no-nonsense driving/shooter hybrid based upon an unusual twist of a well-known formula, Mean Streak is pretty easy at the beginning, but becomes increasingly more taxing as it goes on. Coupled with decent graphics and sound and an absorbing gameplay, the whole of this makes Mean Streak an interesting title. Its weak point lies in the controls, which are not very intuitive and require some time to master.

A pretty good example of an average game in the form of a race-and-chase-shoot-'em-up. The graphics are OK, not particularly well drawn but do their job, the gameplay tends to become more boring than actually fun, specially after awhile, but I guess it's mildly entertaining. Frankly, what I really found out astonishing is the total lack of sound, even in the 128k version.
A futuristic fight between bikers along a semi-devastated road, filled with damaging objects and walls. It's playable but a bit dull. It doesn't seem to have much going for it, variety is lacking and the graphics are slightly drab. It was a full price game, and there's not much to justify it. 128k version has improved sound including an in-game tune.
2,75/5
