I didn't even know there was a Double Dragon V, lol. I loved the first 3. I've been meaning to play Space Ace, but not because it's great, haha. Club Drive = Sleeping Pill, rofl. Perfect description. Why would you pay for the rights to "White Men Can't Jump" without using any imagery from that IP?!? Crazy! Huh, I hadn't heard of "Brain Dead" but it looks like there could be some interesting moments in there. Maybe I'll have to check it out. Atari Karts was too bad. It looks technically up to the challenge, but lacks soul. So sad. I did play Raiden a little, and it looks like one I could see enjoying... once or twice at least. How is Highlander rated so highly? Interesting. I guess it is technically impressive. I think I'll stick to Descent over Hover Strike ;) Cybermorph does look pretty good. I loved the original Star Fox, so I can stand a low poly flier if it's done right. I never realized Myst was on the Jaguar, lol. Whoa, Breakout 2000 looks kinda awesome in 2-player mode. I played old 2D brick breakers, and this looks like a cool upgrade. I love Zool 2, but yeah, I see no reason not to play it for MSDOS. I've never loved any soccer game I've played (even newer titles), so I think I'll pass on Fever Pitch Soccer, lol. Towers 2 looks pretty good. Maybe I'll have to check it out. Power Drive looks like a lot of fun! Baldies look awesome! I'll have to play that! Huh, I wonder why people rated Val d'Isere Skiing so highly? Weird. I like Theme Park, but I wonder if the Jaguar port is any different/better in any way NBA Jam was huge when I was a kid, but I never loved it. Guess they needed a politician C-Span skin, lol I do love Worms, but again it makes me wonder if the port offers much extra/diff. Whoa, Battle Morph does look good! DANG! Wolfenstein 3D looks awesome! I never knew there was a version that was that much better! How is GOG still porting the old PC version when this is out there?!? Iron Soldier 1-2 look really cool too! I do love the original Rayman! I'd never seen gameplay of Tempest 2000 before. I didn't quite understand it. I may have to experiment with that one. I love hearing about all these old games I never bumped into because I didn't know people with these consoles!

This was such a fun project to put together to learn the history and library of the Jaguar. Overall, there's a handful of really solid games that would be fun to play. As you mentioned, Wolfenstein 3D looks awesome and as huge fan of that game, I would have loved it on a home console. They even updated it with new weapons which is cool. I don't think I'll ever purchase a Jaguar, but I'll definitely play one if I get the chance. Thanks for watching and dropping a comment buddy!

@@TigerChainsawVideoGames i have to disagree with you in placement of these games: -Super Burnout is a fantastic racing game that offer high sence of speed ,tight controls ,wise racer selcting and astonishing framerate that boosts the fun experience. -Atari karts is a real fun game to play espesially at the time ,it has a great graphics ,smooth control ,beautiful music in my opinion it can be better than mario kart (snes) at some point -bubsy fructured furry tales was not a cool experience to the platformer genre due to the bad and confusing level design ,the cheap enemy placement ,awkward controls and the one shot instant death in bubsy's HP. -Cannon fodder was a descent game but it doesn't utilise the jaguar pontential including many other ports like syndicate they suit more to be on Amiga consoles. There is still more but i said to much to read so this sould be more than enough ,and if you read this whole i will sub.

I've been a Jaguar fan and owner since 95 and at one point had a full set before selling some off, have about 50 left. My personal favorite is Skyhammer but thats an after release that isn't in the video. But the game that got the most play out of me as a kid was Pinball Fantasies. I remember buying Tempest 2000 brand new at Kaybee Toys for $5 but I just never got into it and never felt it was the greatest game by any means like many people think, I guess it just wasn't my style

@TigerChainsawVideoGames 8 ай бұрын

Wow, that's cool you had a full set! I understand selling some off it off, but to have 50 is still impressive. I hadn't heard of Skyhammer but as you mentioned that came after the life cycle. I'll have to check it out. Pinball games can be really fun, that's cool that you enjoyed it a ton. Many people love Tempest 2000 that's for sure. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment!

Awesome compilation list! This is a console that I've never owned and looking at the prices the system and games are going for now, I probably never will lol! I know that you're reading the comments from the reviewers of back in the day and you can clearly see that some of them were totally not reviewing their preferred genre or overhyping some! Here are some example: - Super Hang On brings nothing new to the table. Compared to what? What was it supposed to bring? It's a motorcycle racing game! - Attack of the Mutant Penguins doesn't have enough levels with 60? How many should it have for the reviewer to be happy with? - Iron Soldier is praised by the reviewer but I've seen many other games earlier in the vid that were graphics and sound wise! - Tempest 2000 have graphics that were unequalled? Really? It's a cylinder shape with a triangle type of ship shape lol Ok all gripes aside, here are the games I would have bought back in the day (without knowing the reviews you've read today) if I had the budget I have now: - Space Ace, Dragon's Lair and Brain Dead (I always like those Saturday Morning Cartoons type of games from back then) - Sensible Soccer, Fever Pitch, Power Drive, Brutal Sports Football, NBA Jam TE and Power Drive Rally (I always enjoyed arcade style sports games) - Baldies, Syndicate, Worms, Cannon Fodder, Towers 2 (I like Strategy and RPG like games) - Theme Park and Alien VS Predator (Being a Predator fan I would have bought it even if I'm not a fan of FPS games) All in all, I know the system was crapped on but if I was a kid and it was the only console I had back then, I'm sure I would still had fun on it! I know it's a super long comment but it was a super long vid lol! Great video and keep up the good work!

It was a blast learning about the Jaguar and the games that came out for it. While I don't think I'd ever purchase one, it was nice to appreciate some of the games for it, while understanding why many of them failed to take off. LOL I love your input on what the critics said, and you make some very good points. Seems like some of them were trashing the games just to trash them or didn't have validate reasons. LOL again at Tempest 2000 comments. Oh boy, I wonder what you would have thought with those QTE cartoon games... Power Drive is one I really want to play along with Cannon Fodder. Thanks for watching buddy! Always appreciate your support.

Love World Tour Racing, even though the framerate is bad. Zero 5 however, is a total pass for me. Would rank Power Drive a bit higher. Looks good and plays very well. Syndicate is a pass for me. Val-d'Isere is pronounced very differently ;). This version of NBA Jam TE is great. Also love Vid Great. Fantastic music selection! Battle Morph is indeed great too. I would rank this version of Doom a lot lower. No music makes it so much worse to play. I also think Alien vs Predator isn't as great as people say. It isn't terrible, but very repetitive.

@TigerChainsawVideoGames 8 ай бұрын

Power Drive stuck out to me immediately. I would be hooked with that game. LOL I knew I was taking a risk trying to pronounce Val d'Isere.... Oh well, I gave it a shot. Vid Grid seems so unique and I like the concept behind it. BattleMorph seems like a great upgrade over Cybermorph. I have heard others complain about the lack of music in Doom. AVP is one I'd love to try for myself.

@@TigerChainsawVideoGamesAVP has sadly dated very badly. Jane Whittaker killed the frame rate with his awful, spaghetti A. I code running on the 68000. Game itself has some serious flaws, those bloody acid blood puddles really should of had a timer on them, so they dissappeared after a set period.

@CasperEgas 8 ай бұрын

I have a full set and have played them all. I would say Double Dragon V is the worst. Most of the bad ones in the video I agree with. Don't think Blue Lightning is that bad. Don't dislike Kasumi Ninja either. Would also rank Atari Karts a bit higher. Bubsy is sooo hard and unforgiving, but I liked it after sticking with it. Missile Command 3D also is worth a 7 or more I would say. Same goes for Raiden, Dragon and Super Burnout.

@TigerChainsawVideoGames 8 ай бұрын

Wow, a full set! You have quite the collection. Double Dragon V looks very slow and repetitive. Blue Lightning looked fairly good in my opinion so I was surprised to see the critics didn't care for it. Agreed with Atari Karts, whether it was a clone or not, I'm sure it could be quite fun. The other games you mention are all ones I would definitely give a shot and at try my hand at. Thanks for watching and dropping a comment!

Tempest 2000 is STILL considered to be one of the, if not these best Jaguar game. Just because it's not as visually impressive as other games doesn't make it an inferior game.

@lucian2701 2 ай бұрын

@@Fools_Requiem It's also the best version of Tempest 2000 - the PC port wasn't made by Llamasoft and the people that converted it missed some stuff, same with TX3 (or whatever it was called) on the playstation. Also, on a personal note, it's one of the few games where I've hit 'the zone' with (where you're at one with the game; it's a nicely weird experience - everything just flows). But as you say, graphics aren't everything and I would agree that it is easily the best game on the Jag.

It's a testament to the quality of the Jaguar's library when the shit games stop showing up 10 minutes into a 30+ minute video. Like 2/3 of the system's library is playable at the least and enjoyable in some manner.

Never had a chance to own the Atari Jaguar. Not sure there are enough games there to hold my interest but there were a couple that looked like fun. I would be interested in trying out Ray Man some time. I'm not normally good a the pure platformer type games but that one looks to be about my speed.
