Classic Pac Posted October 21, 2003 Share Posted October 21, 2003 You might call me someone who is going at this the long way around. I never owned a Jaguar for the simple reason I thought the graphics were no better than say a 32X. Look I am not going at this totally uninformed I own an offical Jaguar games guide put out by Atari itself. I personally don't see any games better than I have seen on 16 bit systems. Then there was that situation at Atari. Even Telegames gave it a try but still... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willard Posted October 21, 2003 Share Posted October 21, 2003 there is battlemorph, towers II, skyhammer, battlesphere gold alien VS predator, a better version of doom. I am not sure about the iron soldier games, and then the speedster II and skycopter which arent really games. Jaguar games are more fun tho, and games are still being developed...

DracIsBack Posted October 21, 2003 Share Posted October 21, 2003 personally don't see any games better than I have seen on 16 bit systems Alien Vs. Predator Skyhammer Battlesphere Battlemorph Iron Soldier 2 Rayman Doom Wolfenstein 3D Fight For Life Zero Five Highlander Myst Primal Rage Spacewar 2000 Show me their 16-bit counterparts. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregory DG Posted October 21, 2003 Share Posted October 21, 2003 I am not sure about the iron soldier games, I highly doubt you could to Iron Soldier I or II on the 32X. There are dozens of Jaguar games that are far from being 16-bit looking. The list DracIsBack made is a good start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZylonBane Posted October 22, 2003 Share Posted October 22, 2003 "Puttom Up"? Isn't that the new Japanese puzzle game? The Jaguar was capable of fantastic graphics. The problem is, fantastic graphics take fantastic talent to create, and Atari didn't have the budget for it. You can have the best game engine in the world, but if the bitmap artwork (sprite, textures, whatever) is bad, the whole thing looks bad. Rayman, Power Drive Rally, AvP, Hover Strike CD... these are all examples of how good Jag games can look when top-notch art assets are thrown at it.

The Helper Posted October 22, 2003 Share Posted October 22, 2003 Hover Strike CD? You have got to be kidding me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZylonBane Posted October 22, 2003 Share Posted October 22, 2003 Say what you will about the playability or framerate... HS:CD has some really sweet textures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
