Tempest 2000 on Atari Jaguar retro games console.

Tempest 2000 by Llamasoft playing on the Atari Jaguar retro games console. Retro gaming

This is not a review, walkthrough, playthrough, or demonstration of my playing ability.
It's simply a quick demonstration of the game so that anyone not familiar with these old games can see what it looks like.
It's also here so that I can embed it, along with most of the games in my collection, on my website (see link above).

Any opinions or comments I make regarding these games should largely be taken with a pinch of salt.
They are usually based on my first impressions after a very brief play.

Would you say the PC version is worth playing?

[SteveBenway]

@TheSymbianFreak I don't know as I haven't played it for more than a couple of minutes around 12 years ago.

This why I got a Jag Tempest 2000, Dooms not too bad, a few flaws, Tempest X3 doesn't seem to have the edge that this has for some reason, never played X3 though.

[SteveBenway]

There's not much in it. This is a bit more mad... more stuff swirling about visually. Gameplay is pretty much identical.

I play X3 more, just because I can play in in my PS3... but if I had the Jag set up all the time, I'd play this.

i grew up playing atari games thru emulation, so when i talk about the atari i cant really say which one as there are so many, but i was actually thinking of picking up a jaguar once, but by the time i had some money it was already sold

[SteveBenway]

I think they're one of those machines you'd either love or hate.

Most (though not all) of the software is pretty shoddy, looking like rushed AGA Amiga games, and some of the in-game samples and voices are hysterically bad.

Oddly though, I like this rough and ready aspect of the Jag's games.

They're no-where near as slick as games on other systems, but they make me chuckle.

Jag's are very easy to find on ebay, but not as cheap as they used to be, after Retro Gamer magazine featured them.

i dont need a jaguar because i have this on sega saturn

[Mcsleeve]

Just got this for the sega saturn. Very good game and highly addictive.

[atombat]

haha, you still up at this time, I didnt think there'd be much in it between em, Just been watching vids about Space Giraffe again, no that looks like a mental Tempest type game, but I dont have a 360, so Im off to find the PC version......

[Lorfarius]

Been itching to get a copy of this for my Jag. Prices on ebay are insane at the moment though :(

[consolearena]

this looks like the best jaguar game, but not longer after thinking this i also found out you can get it on sega saturn
