Pocket, that was really generous of you (yeah, I realize I'm a bit late). Will this run on a standard Jaguar CD console, or do I need a dev kit or a mod chip or something else like that?

[New Lynx user here!]

I'd recommend focusing on Shadow of the Beast, Slime World, and Bill & Ted. They're three of my favorite games for the handheld. Shadow of the Beast ranks among the most technically impressive games for the Lynx, IMO.

 

If/When you start looking for more titles, I'd suggest hunting down Warbirds, Klax, California Games, Scrapyard Dog, and Lemmings (though Lemmings is rather tough to find and expensive).

[Just beat AvP (Marine)]

Hmm, I thought AvP offered a solid challenge, but I didn't find it any more difficult than Doom or Wolfenstein. The transparent automap helps a great deal, and mapping out everything on graph paper is a lifesaver (as mentioned earlier).

 

The Alien mission is a bit frustrating at first, but as long as you take your time and make sure you've always got one backup alien ready to go, it's very doable. Again, it requires intimate knowledge of the airduct system.

 

I also love the (first) PC Alien Vs. Predator. It's got some of the most intense game moments I've experienced, but overall it's not as amazing for its time as Jag AvP. I'll never forget the first time I saw screenshots of Jag AvP (GamePro, October 1993!). They were so mindblowingly far ahead of anything else at the time.

[Jaguar Gamer's Guide]

I always wondered what happened to the expanded version. I'm fairly sure it never saw the light of day, as it was already late in the Jag's commercial life when the expanded list of games on the guide's cover surfaced.
