googlejustsucks Skyrim ? You gave the worst exemple EVER...Skyrim is a great improvement and a great sequel for the Elder Scrolls Series, Bethesda doesn't give a fuck about graphics they actually work 2x more on the content ....What you're saying is right, '' Its fucking back''but bethesda isn't part of that error, compare the graphics between fallout3:newvegas and fallout3, same with skyrim/oblivion, they didn't really improve anything else than the gameplay quality... graphics are just updated to decent standards.You could've bitched about Modern Warfare games that are all the same campaign&multiplayer concept, the only improvements being the graphics and the amount of profits they make.
Oh man, thanks to the nerd for bringing up F-Zero. I've been asking myself "hey me, remember the only racing game we owned? yea, wtf was that game called?"
My sister and I played the shit outta that game when we were young, I miss that game now XD
This is how bits work. Imagine that you're not allowed to use any words with more than 5 letters, and you know what it's like for a computer that only has a small amount of bits. Having more bits is like being allowed to use more letters. But if you're allowed to use up to 15 letters, you probably don't even want any more, you're probably just as happy as someone who's allowed to use 20 letters. Maybe you could learn some words with 20 letters in them, but they wouldn't be very useful and they'd probably just confuse people and make you sound like an asshole. And that's the Atari Jaguar.
LuisAdrego Naw 7800 was a great console but it debuted 3 years too late. It was scheduled to be released in 1984 during the video game crash. Jack Tramiel wisely chose to focus on home computers and canceled it's launch. If nintendo hadn't (which is now illegal) banned their 3rd party developers from releasing their games on other consoles (which crippled sega's master system as well) and atari had incorporated a decent sound chip into the 7800's design it would have been real competition for the nes. Atari had all of their arcade hits newly updated for the 7800 and it played all 2600 carts.
Hi nerd :D you are great, however I don't agree with you about your comment on the atari jaguar. I think that those are good games for the times; I know that ps1 has a great 3D, and much better the nintendo 64, but they arrived 2 and 3 years after the JAG. It was of the generation of the snes, although jag came after 2 years, was less strong than the 3DO but costed also less.... Cmon it wasn't so bad XD
Some of my favorite episodes of AVGN are the episodes about consoles, I love learning a little about the history of gaming from the Nerd with his trademark humor :)
“Atari stopped naming their consoles after numbers, and instead started naming them after cats.”
Well, Mac started using that idea for their Mac OS too ( :P right now writing in a computer with Leopard installed), I guess wild cats are just cool like that.
4:13 - James do a good impersonation of a child's voice
lol, the super cool version at the end xD I was not expecting that. Let's play some Jag!
yes! my birthday episode!
Checkered Flag surprised me what I saw it. It must have been re-released as Virtua Racer on the 32X later, or Virtua racer is something of a sequel to it.
I got this console today, and holy shit the AC Adapter is even bigger then that of the Genesis!! Christ, can't anyone take Nintendo for an example?
"Atari stopped naming their consoles after numbers, and instead started naming them after cats."
Epic business decision...
Man I love AVGN
Nice vid. The intro is a bit long but still really good.
At the end when he says lets play some jag the music at the end sounds like it came from doom
When he say that the cartridges don't have labels his selfmade label says "white men can't jump". I thought that sounds kinda funny, looked it up and guess what: even wikipedia said that it is one of the worst Jaguar games. I would like to see the nerd playing this game.
I've never heard of the Jaguar when it first came out. It's like Atari was trying to stay strong in the console wars, but they wern't thinking the way they did before they made the E.T. game and the 5200.
Zool 2 DOES look like a rip-off of Sonic. I wonder if there's a game called Vince Clortho.
Good thing "Play some Jag" never caught on.
Yeah lets play some Jag!!! I will play any game system with the Nerd any day!!! That would be an awsome contest prize to win huh?? Yeah!!
FUCKNUGGETS I LOST MY HANDLE!!!!!!!!
yep, the bit wars.
Jag yeah!! Fuck Jag!! What a piece of Buffalo shit!! Long live the Nerd!
Time to play some jag, MORE LIKE JAG OFF!!!
Okay 2 things 1.) seriously? I cant believe the movie white men can't jump had a video game 2.) will you ever talk more about the neo geo game system??
the games looks okay but the super nes is better :)
I remember hereing about this system but didn't know anyone who owned it.
Yeah, my hands are just too sweaty from playing the shitty games. if I didn't have a handle, I wouldn't be able to pull the game out!
How are Xbox and Playstation generic? They sounded new at the time. If they were all called the Odyssey, then that would be generic. They only sound generic now because the names have been used for more than 10 years. The more versions of the system, the more generic it sounds. If they were not labled with the original system's name, people would think it is made by another company and would support games not of the first versions sort.
Doughy_Baby to me they just sound generic. they don't say anything. playstation... a station you play on. xbox... an extreme box? they just aren't very creative or appealing to me. jaguar is just badass and says a lot with just one word. fast, powerful, dangerous, thats all i can think of.
Omg...
Ppl began to care more abourt the graphics, than the actual gameplay...
AND ITS FUCKING BACK!!!
since like 5 years there are almost NO good games released...
Just look at the newest epic shit heap, skyrim...
Looks like gold, but sure tastes like SHNOT!
Yea, its shit and snot mixed together...
