I remember being in elementary school and hearing tales of how much better Alien vs Predator was than Doom. Then I saw it for the first time a few years later, seems my friend was good at the blowing of smoke.
yea this is a pretty accurate representation of how we fight in Scotland we shoot fireballs from our groins and toss people like cabers haven't you seen Braveheart?
Thanks guys! I was on deployment when this came out. I could only afford the console and this game. It was really great to see this again major memory lane for me.
it's always surprising just how incapable Bratterz is of accepting that older machines had limitations and won't look or play like today's machines do.
You could say a lot of negative things about the Jaguar, but not that it was too expensive. It was much cheaper than the competition. Both the 3DO and the Amiga CD32 were more expensive and later on the PSX and Saturn were too. If you compare it to the Mega Drive and SNES yes, but that isn't a fair comparison.
This represents the market going from: "here, a computer, let's see what you do about it", realizing: "people are willing to pay for games?" up to "pay what we want for another game-only computer! Now with spinning cube!"
Holy Sh*t I had one of these instead of N64 when I was a youngster, Exchanged my Mega CD for one of these bad boys LOL I feels old man. Mad controller and the first console I played doom on XD A V P was hard as hell!
Remember after the runaway success of the Super N.E.S. and Mega Drive, every company and its dog wanted to make its own console. 3DO, Jaguar, CD-i, etc. I remember actively ignoring the PlayStation when it was first announced, because I legit thought it was just another one of these try-hard failures. Well, we can all be wrong sometimes...
Yes, we Americans say "Jag-wahr." I assume this is the "correct" pronounciation because Jaguars are found in Latin America, and all the Spanish words I can think of that have "ua" in them are pronounced "wah" not "oo-ah."
There should be an entire video where the these three compete in making weird bodily sounds.
I'm going to need Eurogamer to track down the developers of Kasumi Ninja for an in depth interview about the game design of Angus.
I can't believe you played Jaguar without playing Tempest 2000... And even had the cheek to suggest that AvP was its best game!

I just received the final Atari Jaguar game today to complete my full collection :)
Will there be a video of those two burning that game?
Great video, and I appreciate Final Fantasy 8 just sitting in the background, behind Ian's head, just peeking out occasionally.

ughhhhhh you can strafe with the arrows if you hold the A (or maybe C) button... Just like you can in Doom

I can also "pop" my ear
Genuinely thought it made me unique.....thanks for crushing that

Oh, please put Bratterz in front of a Master System playing games off paper cards! His poor noggin would explode!
They were plastic cards.

It's too expensive in relation to the quality it delivers. It's not 3DO, £600 at launch bad, but it's pretty poor.
Ian x Chris
Quite charming.

I love this series :)

N64 controller vs Jaguar plush gamepad. Should have seen the marketing of the Jaguar 64bit, was really rough..!
Really need to do one on the Amiga.
Not fair. You should have tried Doom and Rayman (that is if you have them, of course). Those are some of the best Jaguar games.
They are alright but you can play those elsewhere. Ian is probably talking in terms of things you could only play on the Jaguar,.

The Go Pro seems to be picking up a heart beat,
I remember shitting a brick playing Alien Resurrection on ps1 in 2000 and I don't think this looked that much worse.
i need a video of that burning
AVP appears to be running at about 10fps
AvP, when 480p16fps was standard.
'Alien' and 'Colonial Marine' in the same game? TRIGGERED.
Yes, Ian is correct about how Americans pronounce jaguar.
Och aye!
oh god the framerate
alien vs predator was one of the best games at the time. too bad it was on atari jaguar
ja tive o 3DO
...I thought the first 64bit gaming console was the N64....
The start of this was very odd
Cool vid. Still a better framerate on AvP than Virginia on PS4.
There's so many angry old people in these comments, I love it.
Yes, we Americans say "Jag-wahr." I assume this is the "correct" pronounciation because Jaguars are found in Latin America, and all the Spanish words I can think of that have "ua" in them are pronounced "wah" not "oo-ah."
can confirm Ian, most Americans pronounce it "jag-wire".
It's a pound not a hashtag you toddler
To be fair, Ian called it a "hash" before Chris did.
He sure did Spooky. And Chris at least correctly identified the star key.
he does like to live up to the name Bratt.
First
Congratulations
