 Tao Feng: Fist of the Lotus for Xbox Review - Xbox Tao Feng: Fist of the Lotus Review
Tao Feng: Fist of the Lotus is the first game from Studio Gigante, a development house started by Mortal Kombat co-creator John Tobias and a handful of former MK team members.

Lotus Esprit Turbo Challenge, Lotus Turbo Challenge 2, and Lotus III: The Ultimate Challenge were pseudo-3D racing games developed by Magnetic Fields and published by Gremlin Graphics in the early 1990s.
Lotus 1 features racing against other cars, with a field of drivers whose names are based on real life racers of the time (Ayrton Sendup, Nijel Mainsail and Alain Phosphate for example), while Lotus 2 features racing against the clock.
Lotus III is not so highly regarded, due to its slower running speed (although this time the Genesis port is faster) and lack of new features.
