leech Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 3 hours ago, DEATH said: Yes, it's true. You're absolutely right. You're right because, on one hand, SEGA community is much, much, much larger than on Jaguar, so logically there are more programmers with the ability and desire to do this. And secondly, there are logically fewer assholes who do nothing but talk shit, are totally incompetent in programming, but who still come to open their mouths and end up disgusting those who were competent for this kind of project. At least, that's what makes sense to me. No ? What do you think about that? I would be curious to see the Sega 32x community size vs the Jaguar one. Seems to me the Jag sold a little bit better? I could be completely off-base there. The 32x was the bastard step-child of Sega, and got very little love, and outward hatred from Sega of Japan. It still had quite a few great games on it... oh wait, I can really only think of Star Wars Arcade being good... From my understanding, there are likely just as many assholes in that community though. 😜 I kind of think the assholes in the Jag community are just a little more special though. Haha! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are significantly less projects for the 32X, despite the 32X ironically selling better than the Jaguar back in the day, but that isn't really saying much. DOOM 32X resurrection is amazing, particularly in its current form, but it's also a very different project. It was built completely from the ground up and is not a modification of the actual 32X cart released back in the day. Anyone with access to a 32X, software emulation, or a MiSTer, should absolutely try it. I am looking forward to the Jaguar's Slayer Edition, but I also respect that the folks working on it have lives, families, jobs, and other hobbies. It'll come when it does. And if it doesn't, I don't blame them. There are dozens if not more ways to play classic DOOM these days. People making snarky comments and turning the various aftermarket console versions of the games into a pissing contest, are self-entitled dingbats that have a skewed sense of reality.

I do have a tower of power (though not the cool cersion, I bought the newer model JagCD as I had read the failure of the older units were higher... but it doesn't look right). Still need to try the Doom 22x Resurrection though! Didn't they get the source code and fix it up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't imagine it had a big enough production run to necessitate an updated version. Or a second run. Or really even why there was a first run, but that's another topic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It had a few games that were pretty fun. My brother ended up beating Blue Lightning and Battlemorph... which is saying a lot, as I do not think you could save in Blue Lightning. I beat Vid Grid and Highlander. Now that I think about it, I probably completed a higher percentage of games on the JagCD than I have any other system I have ever known! Helps there are only 14-ish. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It had the best home port of Virtua Racing for a long time too, one of my personal favorites from Sega, given the Saturn port was b0rk, for well documented reasons. I still never knew anyone who had one (or a Jaguar for that matter) when they were actually on the market though. People were either happy with their SNES, existing Genesis, or in one case Sega CD, and then just moved on to the "real" next gen stuff, or got girlfriends. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Helper Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 Super Burnout was a great game but nothing else on the Jag came close to Virtua Racing on the 32X even. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've not played VR on the 32X but not even WTR came close to it (despite being a vast improvement over CF)? On another note, and shooting off on more of a tangent, Super Burnout is arcade-quality, I'm surprised it isn't compared to say Suzuka 8 Hours more often. SB could've used the biker sprite-work that S8H had but otherwise had you dropped SB into an arcade in '95, it would've done well.

+cubanismo Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 I play a lot of WTR, and I've played a lot of Virtua racing. On hardware, Virtua Racing wins. On BigPEmu with uncapped blitter, WTR holds its own as far as gameplay, but subjectively the artwork is still probably better on Virtua Racing. It's why I wish Checkered Flag wasn't horrible, because IMHO, it actually looks better than Virtua Racing in static screenshots. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+madman Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 Oh boy...I knew it would head in this off topic direction, Jag forum gonna Jag forum. Super Burnout and PDR (yes I know there are others) on the Jag are good to great racing games, 32x has VRD. I'd call that a draw, it comes down to what you prefer, but if we're talking 3D racing, a winner is 32x. Jag has Supercross 3D and 32x has Motocross Championship, another draw for 3D bike racing games. Fighting games, 32x wins. Sports games, 32x although the Jag version of NBA Jam TE is superior. For FPS, Jag has Doom, Wolfenstein and AvP. 32x has a IMO lesser version of Doom. Jag wins. I could go on, but you get the point. They're both niche video game devices each having a small amount of great games and plenty of steamy piles. The Jag just happens to have more piles that are often much steamier.

famicommander Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 I've played Tempest 2000 more than every 32X game I have combined. But on the other hand, I can cram JP Mega Drive carts into my 32X without modding the cart cases or cart slot. So that's pretty rad. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could save with a Memory Track. But without it, Blue Lightning would be pretty tough to beat. You can play through the four training levels to give you your pick of three jets (and therefore three lives), or you could skip the training to play with just the Hornet, but if you die then it's Game Over. And without a Memory Track, you would essentially have to replay those four training missions each time you fire up the game if you want to have even a chance of beating the game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really used to think Supercross 3D looked like the better game until I fired it up on BigPEmu, it's borderline unplayable. Motocross Championship is a much simpler game but the controls are rather good for what it is, I don't find myself eating dirt every five seconds. Both OSTs seem to aim for that classic ear bleeding style though. Edited September 7 by Mittens0407 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
