I played Atari today, and...

Recommended Posts

... Zero5 just repeatedly kicked my ass - but I finally made it past level 1. It's a pretty fun game really.

 

Did you play Atari today?

I'm playing the super exciting, fast paced action game: Dino Dudes on Jaguar!! :D It's a thrill a minute, explosion filled, awesome brain-busting puzzler disguised as a platformer. :D

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

j/k - no really I've had this cart forever(1994) and have never played it outside of putting the cartridge in for a second to see if it works, so I thought I would try it and it's a really slow-paced, grey-matter stimulator game for hard core puzzle people. Not necessarily bad, but very diffferent from Zero5 and all the other action games on the Jag. :)

I think '94 was the last time I played that game. Never bought it though. I had never played Zero5 before yesterday. I did buy those drive mechanisms from that website you listed - thanks for that tip by the way.

Yes, Zero5 is a nice arcade style shooter, kinda tough though and requires decent time input to get used to it and skilled playing.

 

Oh!, You ordered some from Dalbani in Florida!, cool :cool: another JaguarCD Player fixed then! It's not too hard a job; just 6 wires to solder re-using the little wiring harness and re-using the mechanism frame.

I'm careful with the four rubber shock absorbers and very careful not to bend the ribbon cable.

 

Yeah, I guess a lot of JaguarCDs needed fixing because they are sold out of the OEM original equipement manufacturer Philips replacements and now just have generic ones. I need to call them to see if they can get more Philips(the actual JaguarCD manufacturer) ones in as I have used both types and the Philips seem to be better in quality. (There's a small sticker on the back of the replacement unit that will say Philips with their logo that the generics don't have)

...Project One kicked my ass totally! Then I used ctrl+f on scroll.s and commented out a line, and reassembled. Sorted :P

Aww you just gave away the most crafty bit of the source code. Now people will steal it and make carts for huge profit :( :( :(

...I found out that Brutal Sports Football is really pretty fun. I never gave it a chance back in the day.

I've always had a lot of fun with that game. It's not the best in the world, but certainly entertaining. :)

Or you could, you know, open it.

 

 

I don't think I'm man enough :sad: I'd rather buy two and get an open one than deflower an innocent game.

I feel that way about a lot of my sealed games... But like a car is meant to be driven, a game is meant to be played.

The last game I played was Connect-4 on my co-worker's iPhone.

 

The last time I actually played Jaguar was like almost 2 years ago I thiink... it's been a LONG time...

 

sucks... life just doesn't give me the time. I suppose I could be doing it right now...
