do the math? shit+crap=fail.

[nathansgottagun]

The voice sounds like a teenager. Its not cool like in mortal kombat

[bisexualbuffthug]

@ioriyagami LOL!!!!!!!!

[PatrickIngham21]

@meowmmmmm I have owned and played fight for life and can honestly say it plays very badly, VF on the 32x plays so much better. fight for life is an impressive looking game for the jag though, but looks dont make a game alone

[TheEscapedBalloon]

The plot reminds me of Thrill Kill, but it's not nearly as interesting looking.

This is a horrid ad too.

[Slacker4LiFe247]

@jowrab Yeah 3DO was awesome. The price Tag is what killed it if you ask me. 

[cant1rac]

@jowrab yes i did and off course they all failed for various reasons, specific to each consule.

and it was the biggest transition time in gaming history, going from the primarly 2d based genisis and snes, turbo graphix neogeo atari xegs etc.. to 3d based.

with the biggest amount of competators.

it no suprise with the pace of fast pace of technical advance that ALL the early adopters failed. and the last entries of that generation, sega saturn n64 and playstation all enjoyed far more success.

[Gamiac]

Interrupting this totally well thought-out discussion, I can't help but hear "Do The Math" in the voice that they said it in the Super Meat Boy ad ever since watching it.

[cant1rac]

problem with the jag was very few game used a fraction of its potential.

in 93 the market was dominated by 16 bit.

Atari got lots of 16bit titles, like syndicate, where the jag version is far better than the snes, but still essentially 16bit.

by the time a year and a half later with the saturn being launched and the playstation being hyped.

 the game developers started moving away from 16 bit.

but atari jaguar, amiga cd32 and 3do were dead, being caught in the middle of the transition period

[cant1rac]

this is probably emulated or poorly captured, its slower over pixalated compared to playing it on the hardware.

the only way to judge these games fairly is too play on the actual hardware.

if you get a jag.

you'll realise what a great machine it was, and how poorly it was support by game developers.

and how stupid atari was to try and float a 64bit machine in what was a 16bit market dominated by snes megadrive, pc, amiga and ataris own st .

theyed have been better releasing the 32bit panther

[cant1rac]

this sound like a fan made, i saw the adds, can not remember the lame voice overs and bad presentation.

this was not an official add to my knowledge, compare it with virtual fighter.

actually graphicaly it dosent come off that bad.

people tend to remember virtua fighter 2 or tekken 2 when there doing a comparision.

i have all three consules so i can do a fair unbiased comparision, based on hardware, not emulation.

this look and plays well, on the consule. it not as bad as it looks in this video

[cant1rac]

really i get tried of people dissing the jag.

take doom for it easily the best version, the ps the most complete.

lets take fifa 98 for the saturn, my god the megadrive could have done better

or busby for the playstation..shit!

hope you get my point.

this was released in the year 3d fighting games were just breaking through, this was probably the first.

and comparing a 93 arcade machine with a home consule is ludicrious.

this was a cutting edge great game for the time it was released.
