Atari Jaguar

OK, I bought an Atari Jaguar... I was excited to get it until I started to try out the games. They are horrible.... like really bad. The graphics suck, even for the time, they are not good... roughly on par with the Sega 32x, worst thing is that they tried to do 3-D with it to prove the POWER of the beast. Not a good idea. The beast has no power.

The best games on it were Tempest 2000 and Aliens vs Predator, surely those could hold my attention and love...... if only. They are cool and I appreciate where the market was when they came out, but overall they don't really hold up.

Funny thing about the history of the Jaguar is that they were trying to compete with the Playstation and Saturn (both 32 bit), so they kept going on about how consumers should "do the math" since they claimed the Jag was 64 bit.... it had more bits, how could they go wrong?? oh right, it was a hotly debated topic... was the Jaguar actually a 64 bit system?? You'll notice how consoles today don't really count bits any more...

Next up.... Laser Active.
