The Atari Jaguar Game by Game Podcast

tripled79 · August 31, 2020

Just heard the podcast. Nice to have you back. I was worried for a while I might never get to hear this one.

I noticed in the game manual, it lists Manual Sousa as a game tester, but in the game it lists Joe Sousa. Which Sousa is it? There's a mystery for ya.

Also I'm pretty sure I have had encounters with the oil spill on the track. If I wipe out, do a lap, and run over the exact spot (there'll be a noticeable black spot on the track) the controls will become slippery for a quite a few meters. Sorry, yards. Seriously, the rest of the world uses the metric system, why doesn't the U.S. get on board?

Anyway, I wonder what Oliver thinks of it.

It's amazing how much everyone was on the 'I hate the Jaguar train' in the early to mid nineties. Super Burnout is so solid of a racing game that I feel like the reviewers and I are playing two completely different games. Controls are so tight, and precision is rewarded greatly in this game. When you can swerve through a bunch of corners while staying on the road, it's an amazing feeling to shoot from sixth place to second place while being in a battle for first with the leader.
