+madman Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 What do you guys think? The Jaguar vs "Fly on the Wall." No, seriously, hear me out! Atari was a legend in the video game market and then released the commercially unsuccessful Jaguar. AC/DC are music legends and released the stinker that is Fly on the Wall. The Jaguar's library is filled with sub-par to downright horrible titles with a few hits mixed in. Fly on the Wall is a horrible album with a couple of good songs. The Jaguar's box artwork was very attractive. Fly on the Wall has nice cover art. The big difference is that Atari folded after the demise of the Jaguar, while AC/DC recovered and went on to put out a number of great albums. For me, Fly on the Wall beats the Jaguar. What do you guys think? 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GroovyBee Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Too many jag fans like to Sink the Pink.... in their jaguar . 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+save2600 Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Left out too many variables - what about Pink Floyd's 'The Wall'? Or Pink herself? Or Michael's Jackson's 'Off The Wall'? Or U2's 'The Fly'? Or Atari's late comer that forgot all about what their very own paddles were for… 'Off The Wall'? :crazy: 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+madman Posted May 31, 2015 Author Share Posted May 31, 2015 Neither. But speaking of pink… I'll take Pink Floyd's 'The Wall' over either any day! What about Intellivision vs. The Wall? Or Amiga vs The Final Cut 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+save2600 Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Amiga never had Final Cut or Final Cut Pro - so instantly (unlike Instant Music) disqualifies as we simply cannot make a fair comparison here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toiletunes Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Fly on the wall was recorded in a 16 track studio. JAGUAR is 64 bit. No comparison. Also, Jag has dozens of games, Fly has -what, like ten songs? No contest. Most of those songs were written by one guy, Jag had three programmers, no contest. In keeping with the theme of levity, I did not fact check my made up answers. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atlantis Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 For me, Fly on the Wall beats the Jaguar. What do you guys think? I think you should join the AC/DC forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toiletunes Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 I will now get mock offended and go into 'Hulk smash' mode to keep up the effect. After all, this is the Jag forum... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spacey Invader Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 I think you should join the AC/DC forum. I am on the AC/DC forum! I log on weekly to tell them all the band has been rubbish since Bon Scott died, and that anyone who disagrees that Metallica is superior should go to some asylum. The weird thing is, about half of them agree with me on a regular basis. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+save2600 Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Another pointless comparison: AC/DC vs. Metallica... at least we're not the only ones that partake in such idiocy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+wood_jl Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Good grief!! "Fly on the Wall" ain't their best work (the Mutt Lange-produced triumvirate of "Highway to Hell," "Back in Black," and "For Those About to Rock" will never be surpassed), but it's been 30 years since "Fly on the Wall." Get over it. Even those who think it sucks frequently admit that at least "Shake Your Foundations" was a pretty good song, if they liked AC/DC at all......

ovalbugmann Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Was sad to hear that Malcolm developed dementia, i think his son replaced him. Like that picture on the Let There Be Rock, cover where he's just standing in the back towards the speakers playing his guitar with a serious kinda look.
