I absolutely love the Atari Jaguar, even realizing how it came up short in many ways. I think so many of the games have a sort of charm to them and absolutely loved the way the system was built and how it looked. Definitely have great memories of the system and still fire it up at least once a week.
I had this game, bought the CD addon when it was first released, but was disappointed with its dated graphics. Released in summer 1995 it and the CD unit was actually scheduled for release at last a full year earlier but was repeatedly delayed. By then, the Saturn was out and PlayStation due in fall, and far better stuff in arcades, this game was nearly DOA
FYI: you can put the disk in any CD player to play out its audio songs, this and Primal Rage.
This game was only average considering the hardware. But it was fairly fun to play and it did have some depth. It was packed in with the Jag CD so I couldn't complain. The worst part about Blue Lightning was it's graphics (cardboard cutout lookin). Highlander was a much better Jag CD game. It's a shame less than 20 games came out for the Jag CD. After playing Highlander I knew it had potential.
It's a decent game. Quite difficult. It should have been a bit better considering it came out in 1995 though. Compare this to Air Combat on the Playstation and this game is rather lacking. Still decent though.
hahaha it looks like an handheld

I guess the programmers thought that just because this game has decent video clips than people wouldn't care that the actual game fell short.

Looks pretty good, but just like any other game on the 3DO or first gen PSX game. Jag had so much unused potential.

compare to this to a saturn launch title or early game similar to this like, Panzer Dragoon say, there is no comparison

You mean no comparison because Blue Lighting blows every other game out of the water , right?

@Ussopu It looks worse than Afterburner, which came out in 1989 or so, lmao.

What a great game! I have this for my three Atari Lynxes, too. I do recall the music being of a rockin' nature and so it is.
Pretty darn good for mid-1990s stuff!
