GaryH917

So whats your solution Gary? Go buy another game which is readily available... I don't need to buy Battlesphere... It such a great game, but how many people will ever get to play it? What's the value in that? The jag is a very frustrating system... Nothing new, maybe a new game once every 2 years, play the same old games over and over... I have played about 20-30 jag games and there isn't enough to keep ya interested for any period of time... No sports games, ie.... Troy Aikman Football? The Genesis has better football games than this... I have played AVP, Defender, Missile Command, Tempest, Ultra Vortek, Iron Soldier, Cannon Fodder, Cybermorph, etc... But, ya play them and put them in a closet... No new games! A very "stale" system... I know it's very hard to program games for the jag, another strike against the system... The 5200 has many new games which have come out recently or are coming out, ( Koffi, Castle Blast, Combat 2, Haunted House 2, Ataritris, Adventure 2, Jr. Pacman, Super Pacman, Xevious, Millipede, Final Legacy, Asteroids, etc)... The 5200 has a better library with new games coming out on a consistent basis... Battlesphere is probably a great game to the few who will ever play it, another strike against the jag... I think it's funny to say that Madden, NFL2K3, NBA 2K3, NHL 2K3, World Series 2K3 all suck... Different strokes for different folks... Yes, let's give this forum an ending... To each his own...

One-sided meaning one-sided viewpoints... Only seeing and hearing what u want to see and hear...

So I guess every topic I start will get locked? Again, let some other views come through on this topic...

Well, when every view is one-sided, do I have to be the bad guy all the time... I won't buy it because of the price and the limited run... Send me your copy? I know, will never happen... So, I will never play this GREAT game? Would love to try it and see what it's like... Again, your comments are one-sided... meaning I must continue to repeat myself to get a point across which will never happen... If ya don't like this post... DON"T RESPOND! Simple as that... What you are doing is trolling with your one-sided views... Let someone else respond who may have a different view... Simple as that...

I haven't actually played D2K for awhile... The classic mode was slow enough for me, lol... Defender 2000 made me feel like I was flying a bus that didn't move quick enough... Kinda like Xevious 3D/G for playstation... Too many things flying at u way too fast...

Hey guys, how about? Xevious 3D/G The Italian Job Atari Anniversary I thought Planet of the Apes graphics were choppy and very poor...

I bought Speedway last week and find it quite challenging! The only prob is that they haven't gotten a new game to choose from... Maybe this week! I feel my belly getting bigger than it already is...

That's why a new one come out every year... Duh! YOU CAN PLAY SEASONS, ONLINE WITH FRIENDS, JOIN LEAGUES.... DON"T U SEE THE REPLAY VALUE THERE! You make me repeat myself because of your one-sided views...

Actually Brian, I keep almost every game I purchase... It's an investment to me to pick it up a few years later and get into it all over again...

That is very true... Anytime u can get your investment back, great! U drive a car off the lot and lose a few $1000 right there. But, how many gamers are ever gonna get the chance to play or own Battlesphere? How many years do u have to sit on a waiting list? Is this done purposely by the company who develops the game to increase it's value? Who knows... It doesn't help the consumer any... You produce a product you should then be able to make enough copies to supply the consumer with... The customer is always first! Every year I can go to the store and find a new version of any sports title I like... Madden 2004 will be ready in September. I can readily go and purchase it for let's say $40... Play full seasons many times and also play online, which is really cool! Would I get bored with it? Probably, but I can play full seasons and also take on my buddies online... It is anything but a yawn... The graphics look like an actual football game... Sports games graphic wise are the best to look at visually... Again, to each his own... Therefore, my game is of more value to me for the simple fact that I know every year I will get a new version with something new added to spice it up! I bought NFL 2K3 for $10 brand new!!! Hell, I can just let the computer play each other and watch it like a real football game... Another GREAT game is NBA Street Volume 2... Great graphics, a kickass soundtrack, and an announcer who says the funniest lines... Plus I can go back and play the old school guys like Jordan, Bird, Dr. J, Magic, Rick Barry, way to cool... I also play shooters and the arcade remakes when they come out... I love the challenge of a game like Splinter Cell... This is what value means to me... They are available to me TODAY, not 5 years from now... So, I hear all this hype about one game for the Jag... One game that I will never play... One game that was so great because it took so many years to make... One game that rejuvenated the jag... One game that only a few people will ever play... Again, a game that I can't buy has no value to me... So, as good as it may be, it's only one game... One game that only a few people will ever play...

Ok guys, here we have a new discussion carried over from Jag forum... Let me know your thoughts on this subject? Here is my post: I could pay $160 for Battlesphere and play it about about a month and get bored with it... or I could buy 3 great games like Madden 03, NHL 2K3 or World Series 2K3 and play them forever??? Much more value for my money... Plus the 3 games above are available for purchase as we speak... No waiting for a few years till you finally get your hands on a copy!

I got NHL2k3 in December and have put in hundreds of hours into that game ( i played through franchise modes and hundreds of online games) can you seriously say I can get that much time out of BS? as good as the game most likely is I cant say I can and I havent even talked about Madden or World series. You mention the other sports games and I think more time can be put in to those as well (playing season modes and playing against people) Like I said I'm a "true gamer" and enjoy and played thousands of games and own alot of systems. Thunderbird wrote: There lies the problem. You'd rather pay for three awful games like Madden 03, NHL 2K3 and World Series 2K3 which any true gamer wouldn't be entertained for 3 minutes playing. Especially when you can pick up a bunch of used copies of Madden 00, NHL 2K, World Series 2K, Madden 01, NHL 2K1, World Series 2K1, Madden 02, NHL 2K2 and World Series 2K2 and get the same boring games for about $10 (for all of them). "Those games are meant for the average dunderhead beer belly bonehead. Not for true gamers". Gunstarhero wrote: So if you go out and buy Madden 03(yawn), NHL2K3(yawn), and World Series 2K3(yawn), your going to play these forever? I doubt it, it will end up in the resale rack at EB like every other sports game ever made. You talk about buying Battlesphere for $160 and getting bored within a month, but at the very least you could sell that Battlesphere for $160 and lose absolutely nothing. However if you buy those 3 same old, same old crummy sports games for $160, once you get bored with those, they are worth what? About $15 for all three, and thats if you sell them before next year's releases come out. Talk about a waste of money. Your thoughts, ideas on this subject?

Very true Mendon! To each his own!

Hey Steve, Gary here. Just read your email back to me. Im gonna put it up for bid on ebay. Nothing against what you offered me, just need to raise some serious money at the moment! Keep an eye on it!

You hit the nail right on the head Holy_Fluck... Somebody in here actually has the balls to speak their mind... I could play one game for $160 for about a month and get bored with it... or I could buy 3 great games like Madden 03, NHL 2K3 or World Series 2K3 and play them forever??? Much more value for my money... Plus the 3 games above are available for purchase as we speak... No waiting for a few years till you finally get your hands on a copy! but at the risk of being kicked off for not being constructive Too funny!

Steve, It's ok when things are said previously????? Do you tell them to stop? I have to get my jabs in right? My two cents... My freedom of speech... Or is it me that gets to be the bad guy all the time? You make no sense with your statement...

Thunderbird wrote: Here's a novel idea: If $60 is "too much to spend" then don't spend it. Some people are just born a genious! Dang, that plus you know how to find words in a dictionary! How about giving this mathematical equation a try? Ready? Homework for ya tonight? Supply + Demand= Very HAPPY customers....

Very true jaysmith2000... Im not here to argue... Read some my old posts? Enjoy the Jag for what it is: taken from a post along time ago from me ... Some great games, some ok games and some sucky games... After awhile you get tired of playing a couple great games... A few new games once every 1 to 2 years isn't enough!!! The 5200 got more games coming out than the jag! The 5200 has a better selaction of games than the jag! I would play the 5200 way more than the jag. Just my opinion, not starting an argument here guys!

jaysmith2000 wrote: Also, a BIG thanks to GaryH, you really helped bring this community together by your ignorant responses! Just being a nice guy and sticking up for way that willard was responded too dude... If bringing the Jag community together by saying what you feel and responding to all the negatism in here, I'll take credit for that! Now you have a great forum going were noone is saying one BADDY against the Jag, too funny! One game doesn't make a system son.... If Battlesphere is your savior, enjoy that one game.... Holy Fluck wrote: 160 dollars is alot to spend on a game though, heck 60 bucks is alot to spend for a game for a system that has died long ago. As good as the games are (BS, AVP etc.) I really find it hard to spend the big bucks like that when I'm not a collector, just a player You hit it right on the nail homeboy...

hey megaman, gary here. i have an extra copy complete in the box. only gonna keep one for myself. e-mail a price and we can go from there... [email protected]

Every argument started in here is because NOONE wants to hear anything negative about the jaguar... Criticism can be both constructive and negative... Unfortunately in life we must deal with both also... If Willard did that purposely, then that's his problem... Ignore him, why respond to him... Isn't there freedom of speach? You only wanna hear GOOD things about the Jag... Well, besides a few good games, you don't have much to chat about, I understand your frustration... Saturn wrote: Thanks, me too. Actually, I was promoting Sauron's idea for having GaryH917 blocked from the Jag forum. Sounds too good to be true though... Awww, I would be deeply hurt by that Saturn... Then, maybe I could sell a system I hardly use and get a PS2? Any offers? Hardly used Jag plus around 10 games? Make an offer? If you do that, then you can have 100% positive things said in here, lol... Waah, Waah, Waah again!!! Too many babies, not enough nurses, lol

If someone is saying something you don't agree with why not just ignore what is being said instead of replying back with ignorance towards that person as you do with almost all your responses? Maybe you need to think before YOU respond with your ignorance... I'm upset at your comment only, nothing else that was said in the thread... What makes you a professional Atari Jaguar spokesperson? Do you know it all? Maybe Willard can't afford $150 for the game and wants to see what its like then make a judgement on the game at that point? You come on with your pompous attitude to try to put someone down all the time... Trolling, flaming, flame wars: Are these actual words? Are these a level of English vocabulary that my 6 year old nephew might understand? Grow up!!! Every argument started in here is because NOONE wants to hear anything negative about the jaguar... Criticism can be both constructive and negative... Unfortunately in life we must deal with both also...

Jetboot Jack: My comments where directed at Sauron for what I feel is a waah waah attitude... Not sticking up for Willard, not bashing Thunderbird or Battlesphere... Please read again... for the 3rd time... Can I get you some cheese with that wine Sauron????? Grow Up!!!!!!!!

Jetboot Jack wrote: if you send out free copies of battlesphere gold to a few people, the reviews wont be as good as they are now" -- what in that statement is not meant to be a direct attempt to troll please, where is the CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM in that statement? You are not reading my post. My post is concerning what Sauron responded back to Willard: Willard, you obviously haven't played BS:G, and I'd suggest that you keep your trollish comments to yourself until you have. Please try to THINK before you speak This lame response is what I'm talking about. Please read again before posting something that is irrevelent...
