Re: Robinson's Requiem-3DO or Jaguar version??...

Looks like good points on the Jaguar version, but was this a completely finished game from Songbird Productions... and not buggy, like Skyhammer?

Re: Videogame Audio Soundtracks

I've seen a couple photos around the 'net of "The Original BS" that look official and I may have seen one for the "Defender 2000 Soundtrack." Is there any way to get an official copy of either of these?

Re: What are your favorite Jaguar games?

I have not played the Jaguar in years until late last month. There are a good deal of titles I simply haven't gotten into and some that I've completed I would revisit. So, there are games I have played more in the past that may be more deserving of a Favorites list. The following is... WHAT I WOULD ...

Videogame Audio Soundtracks

I have been listening to the Tempest 2000 (& Duke Nuke'em) soundtrack(s) in my car over the last week. It got me to thinking that there were other soundtracks out there. I've now downloaded the BattleSphere and Defender 2000 soundtracks from the JustClaws website. (I'm happy to see is still around e...

Re: CyberMax PC System has Failed

I'm certain I have the entire hard drive backed up on two different 4-8GB DDS tapes (but what year I couldn't say) and I'm less certain I have Jaguar projects backed up on an Optical Drive with a couple (650MB?) disks. I could not have lost much as I have paper notes on the asteroids I added to Nati...

Re: S-Video on the Jaguar - Letterbox Shrink to Fit

Atari Jaguar Power Pad to Other Atari Systems Adapter Cable

I have the BEST Electronics bag and label this cable came in, and I obviously used it because my 7800 list of games is marked by the "A" or "B" buttons of the Jaguar controller working with some of the titles, but I don't seem to know where the cable is. Anyone else have one? I was kind of curious w...

Re: Scanned & Custom Overlays

Okay, so I see that Aircars and Trevor McFur have overlays in the manuals. I'm fairly certain the original AirCars release did not come with an overlay. Was there one with the second AirCars version? Was there an actual overlay that came with Trevor McFur? Besides those, it looks like some were made...
