> Advice ... Hyper Force?
Posted by Jagosaurus - 01-21-12 11:22 - 15 comments
So, I've read up on Hype Force & what I've read seems pretty positive.

My Jag collection is nothing amazing, but I'm proud of it & I enjoy playing and displaying what I have biggrin.gif I do own some of the games in the $30-40 range CIB like Ultra Vortek. I don't own a CD unit yet as I want to step up my cart collection first :] I figured it was finally time to start snagging some of more expensive games, but definitely wait on the REALLY heavy hitters (BattleSphere I'm look at you! bigeyes.gif) until after I have a CD unit.

This leaves Hyper Force & a few others. At $75 is this a good place to start grabbing some of the more pricey cart games CIB? Any other suggestions on other cart games in this price range? Skyhammer is another I don't have. I guess I could go one small step higher in the price range and snag Worms or Towers II.

I'm a platform guy & I also am a fan of run n guns. Hyper Force seems up this alley. Has anyone managed to get a copy for significantly under $75 on ebay? Any other suggestions in the $60-$100 price range for CIB games? Time to commit and step up the cart collection! clap2.gif

Thoughts... suggestions.... ? Thanks

Hello Forum

Im new here, but im an old Atari Fan Boy from germany :-)

I was born in the 1970 and started with the VCS2600 and the C64 but my Fav is the JAGUAR , i Like the Design the staring sequenz and of course the Homebrew scene :-)

I hope my english is good enough talk with you guys.

At the moment my fav game is superfly dx from the rebbot team and i finished it yesterday the first time. The last levels are crazy and could be programmed by Jeff minter :-)

I wish you all the best.

> Any info on canceled Jag accessories?
Posted by Jagosaurus - 01-18-12 10:53 - 21 comments
Hi all, first off, new member & I'm excited to be a part of the community! Something about the Jag has intrigued me for some time...

Where there more canceled accessories/peripheals/add-ons besides the voice modem & the VR head set? Guess you could count the Jag Duo rocker.gif

During the Jag's retail life, items released of the top of my head: Jag Pro 6 button pro controller, Team Tap, Jag Link, Composite/S-vid cables, Mem Track, & Jag CD-add on.

Regarding the prior gen consoles: SNES & Genesis both had light guns (several versions) & both had mice. The 3DO released right with the Jag & had a light gun & mouse. The Saturn & PSX both had light guns & mice, and the Saturn had a keyboard.

I've seen some homebrew Jag mice & light guns. Also, very cool Ocean Depths on Jag CD has mouse support smile.gif

Now I find it odd that a light gun was never released for the Jag in order to capture the market. Also perhaps a mouse? Maybe even a keyboard? Were there ever plans for these? And was the modem to be used with any games other than Ultra Vortek?

Just thinking of the potential on the Jag with these cheers2.gif : Syndicate with mouse support! drool2.gif or some LEGIT light gun games like Crypt Killer (notttt Corpse Killer lol)! While the mouse would've been nice for some games, the light gun would've opened up the doors for an entirely new genre on the system. Especially considering arcades were in their prime & I personally had to spend $100s in quarters on those light gun games! I would've forked out the cash to buy a Jag light gun & any corresponding games! jsiicheers.gif

> Counterfeit Gorf sold on eBay as real.
Posted by drsreym - 01-17-12 22:49 - 47 comments
I have confirmed the copy to be fake and the person I purchased it from admitted to it and refunded the money. The seller claimed that he made a copy for the original winner (twoquickcapri) that he was going to sell for $100 and he mixed the "real" one and the fake one up. So either he tried to scam on or both of us or just me either way twoquickcapri should check his disk and verify if he got a counterfeit or the real copy (if there ever was a real copy). Who knows maybe the seller was not lying and twoquickcapri canceled his order and asked him to make a copy for $100 and twoquickcapri got a real Gorf for $100.

The Numbers on the CD is: RFD80M-79246 80
The numbers etched on the plastic inner ring: TGC108293801E16

Clearly the photos i posted did not match the ones in the auction.
If you look at the photos closely you see that the cover is too small and does not fit in the case correctly.
You see that the manual is too small too.
On the CD you see that the image is not round and has a printed CD edge on the CD.
Also on the close up of the manual you can see that it has a "Printed on fold line" in addition to the real fold line
The printing is also dull and the manual is not that legible
Inside the CD case is missing the same markings that the originals seem to have.

Since I am looking to buy a legitimate copy of this game it would be useful if someone could still post some pic of a legitimate copy and post the numbers/words/etc that you see on the bottom of the disk.

Maybe for games like GORF that are susceptible to being forged we should produce an official guide so we can spot fakes or not.

Maybe something like http://www.superpcen...t/sapcomp1.html (this is a guide people made to identify counterfeit Sapphire for the PC Engine) On that game someone actually glass mastered fakes so they could be passed off easier.

So please post photos, CD-Codes, so that we can identify the real deal from fakes.

Hello,

here is my first game for the Atari Jaguar: "Shoot'em up".
It's a shoot them up kind of game. Yeah, I thought long and hard to find a name.

The game is provided with its manual in the zip file attached.
I'll set up a proper website and provide the source code within a few days (hopefully).

You can run it with the Skunkboard or with Virtual Jaguar.
If you're using BJL let me know if you've trouble running it (it's provided as a .cof file).

Have fun!
