Gunstar Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 (edited) For me, there are some badly programmed Jag games and Jag games I hate because I don't like the genre. So my list has some that are just bad, and I don't like (some I do like that the majority hate;SC3D, FFL), and some I just don't like at all. Double Dragon V (just bad in every way, I think by this thread it rates as the worst ever) Zoop! (not my type of game at all) Space Ace (loved Dragons lair and BD 13, but this one, on the Jag, sucks due to lack of proper timing) Theme park (not my type of game at all) Syndicate (not my type of game at all) Edited March 9, 2014 by Gunstar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunstar Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Between the horrible frame rate and choppy gameplay, Hoverstrike is nearly unplayable IMO and Ruiner is a huge letdown. Love pinball and want to like the game, but the overly colorful cartoonish play fields and fantasy gameplay aren't things I look for in a pinball game. Could forgive those two things if the game only played better. Hoverstrike on CD is a totally different story, if you ever get a chance, give it a chance.

+save2600 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Hoverstrike on CD is a totally different story, if you ever get a chance, give it a chance. I have it and I've heard that! lol Will have to spend some more time playing the CD version though. From memory, I do remember it being a much smoother experience. -edit- Playing the game now. Absolutely love the soundtrack and yes, this version trounces all over the cartridge. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevincal Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Worst Jaguar games. DDV, Dragons Lair, Space Ace, BD13, Checkered Flag, Highlander, Bubsy, and others Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll probably pick up Zoop at some point, just to be nosy. But, truth be told, I'm really just not into block puzzlers I'm afraid. At an absolute push, I'll entertain Baku Baku on the Saturn... because it's nuts! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+davidcalgary29 Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 I hate Flip Out with a passion, though it's clearly not the Jag's worst game (I would prefer to play any one of those instead). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schmudde Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 My list (worst being #1) Supercross 3D Space Ace Troy Aikman Football Trevor McFur Brain Dead 13/Dragon's Lair Most Disappointing: Checkered Flag (bought this full price in the 90s b/c it was Rebellion) Blue Lighting (The easiest genre to get right and they blew it) Fight For Life (Hyped b/c of Francois Bertrand's involvement) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baku Baku is only one of the greatest two player games every created. That and Bust-A-Move 2. Great stuff! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atarijagplayer Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Jaguar games I disliked: - White Men Can Jump - Val D' - Hover Strike - Dino Dudes - Bubsy Games that are great!, however way underrated as follows: + Power Drive Rally + Pinball Fantasies + I-War (way underrated!!!) + Vid Grid + Breakout 2000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick Dangerous Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Jaguar games I disliked: - Hover Strike What!? You must be playing the Cartridge version. Hover Strike on the Jag CD rocks. Happy to hear you like I-War, I've been on the fence about picking that up for a while now. Wow. Must be the sequel... Lol..I needed that after today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaguarGod Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 My list would look pretty close to the rest in this thread. I think DDV is the worst Jag game. It is simply horrible. Some of the games listed are a bit of a surprise such as Iron Soldier or even Val d'Isere Skiing and Snowboarding, but everyone has their individual tastes. I see SuperCross 3D on here quite a bit, I actually play that game. It does take a long time to get used to the control though....... A long time....... Val d'Isere is a game I still play quite a bit. I love the speed and really enjoy it. It takes a long time to master, but it can be done. Not sure about Iron Soldier being on the top 5 worst list. That game is great in my opinion. IS2 is better in every way, but the original is a lot of fun to play. My Son loves the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeoGeoNinja Posted March 12, 2014 Author Share Posted March 12, 2014 Yeah... the IS series are top shelf Jag gaming experiences imo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorsten Günther Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 I have found time to play several Jag games from my rack while in rehab (due to my lumbar disk surgery), and have added a title to my hate list: Theme Park While I also found Ruiner Pinball bland (as were Flip Out and Zoop), this one is just terrible: clumsy controls and nothing really happening... So my Flop 5 would be - in no particular order: Baldies Theme Park Double Dragon V Club Drive (never tried two-player mode though) Supercross 3D I found both Bubsy and Evolution: Dino Dudes average, but they're nowhere among the worst titles I have played on the system. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warzard Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Man, no love for Don Bluth. I like the Dragon's Lair type of games. My least favorite games are: 1)Kasumi Ninja 2)Club Drive 3)White Men Can't Jump 4)DDV 5)Dino Dudes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My least favorite games are: I don't think it's so much that people don't like those types of games, as much as it is they were botched conversions. Very difficult to play, I believe? Like the timing is completely off or something. I'm sure others here can clarify better than I can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbh though, I feel DDV's incremental jump from 4th to 3rd was justified though. More justifiable than a simple post edit. A whole new post. I approve... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
