Gorf Posted January 26, 2006 Share Posted January 26, 2006 'Tis the first time that I actually wish that I owned a Jag! 1006801[/snapback] You could always buy one. There are some other cool games for it too. Peter 1007122[/snapback] And if you cant find a CD and want to still play Classic Gorf..we are working on a cart version now....and also trying to keep the cost down again...hang tuff folks more fun on the way.

Clint Thompson Posted January 26, 2006 Share Posted January 26, 2006 (edited) (overlooking Debbie Downer statements... dot dot dot ) Really though... if you've never owned a Jag CD it's a very cool system. I think the biggest thing is that future releases are most likely going to be on CD (as with a few past releases) and there's a few in the pipeline.... mmmmm (and just look at those breathtaking images I posted!) Yes, they are breathtaking! *better than the minty zing after brushing your teeth in the morning... * Edited January 26, 2006 by Clint Thompson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrazyChris Posted January 26, 2006 Share Posted January 26, 2006 Thanks to all who ordered. It was a lot of work getting the orders ready, I'd much rather be programming. 1005633[/snapback] You should look into having AtariAge distribute them for you. Save yourself some time and effort.

holygrailvideogames.com Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 My copy arrived today! Now I need to find a Jag CD unit to play it on. Everything looks great. Thanks for making it! It has been a long time since I have been excited about the Jag but now I am! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holygrailvideogames.com Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 Here is a link to Jamie's site. Maybe someone could contact Jamie and see if she would be interested in releasing Ms. Gorf for the Jaguar. http://www.fentonia.com/bio/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LinkoVitch Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 Actually the license owner of the 'game' design concept is one thing, but that is not the owner of the code works for the jag. Ergo isn't the copyright applied to that? also.. So the designer could say download away, but if the code fro the Jag is written by someone who doesn't want you to do this then no.. you can't for that machine. Well that seems to make logical sense to me.. and whens my copy getting here ? Anyone else in the UK got theirs yet ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MegaManFan Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 The Galaxian level, unlike a lot of the other home versions, is definitely in there. That's one of the reasons I highly approve this release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorf Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 The Galaxian level, unlike a lot of the other home versions, is definitely in there. That's one of the reasons I highly approve this release. 1008074[/snapback] Though like Galaxian, Gorf's "Galaxians" is different in name and in how they actually play(slightly but enough) to avoid any copyright infringment.

Atariboy Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 (edited) The name is copyrighted, and was originally licensed from Namco for the arcade release. How is it free ot copyright infringment now? Wouldn't the existance of the name itself cause issues? Kind of like how Atari can't include ports of games it created but licensed back in the day for the 2600. The 2600 port of Galaxians is a lot different than the arcade version, but they're not allowed to include it in say Atari Anthology.

If you played the Jags Gorfs you can see it is slightly different. Edited January 27, 2006 by walter_J64bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari Smeghead Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 I'll tell ya what I'm so impressed about. $35.00 for a Jaguar game!! I'm so used to new releases coming out (on cart) for $60-90 (or in the case of that one, infamous game, the price of a used automobile). So, I'm overjoyed! Here's a game I've always loved, and now I can own a version for my beloved jaggie! And I don't even have to hock or eBay anything. Joy! Oh, I also really, REALLY like this comment, from your website: "Unlimited run - will be produced to meet demand" and "There will be NO limit on the number of standard edition copies produced. They will be produced according to demand. " Again, a classy thing to do as well as say. No "used automobile" eBay prices for your creation, and that I applaud! I just bought myself a copy. Thanks to everyone involved, for continuing to support our favourite Atari. Smeg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaztee Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 I'm glad as a Jaguar community we care so much about copyrights that we were able to stop the production of such copyrighted (and unlicensed) titles as Barkley and Brett Hull! When did this happen then??? I just checked B&C's website & cant find BH, but Barkley is still there It is very strange how the Jag community acts to me. Even when we get what we want (new releases ) we have to find someway to shoot ourselves in the foot, why??? Gaztee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyChris Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 Your game looks great. I am really impressed by the artwork on the cd and box. Yeah, I don't understand the scrutiny... The Atari 2600 community doesn't seem to have this problem? I think some people are mad becasue you are continuing to support a system they don't like.

bjk7382 Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 I just got mine in the mail today and I have to say it is a great conversion of the classic arcade game. I really like it, keep up the good work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
