Zeta, I don't know if I would call it the "clear" winner of anything.   I would take the Jaguar over the 3do just for Tempest 2000.  Even Rayman might be better than anything on the 3DO.   I had.a 3DO for fifteen years and the most fun I ever had with it was the anticipation I felt when I was bringing it home from the store.

The 3DO had it's stand-outs and its failures are even somewhat entertaining, that said I have no desire to seek one out these days, however if one fell in my lap I'd hook it up and enjoy it for what it is.

I'd much rather have a Jag these days, the day I accidentally killed mine (wrong plug, same size)made me a sad person. I just have much fonder memories of it overall.

I thoroughly enjoyed my Panasonic FZ-10, but as mentioned a lot of the good games can be found on other systems(and they usually play better).

I like both the Jaguar and 3DO, but would rather play Lucienne's Quest and Super Street Fighter II Turbo than anything for Jaguar.

The 3DO FIFA port was probably the definitive version for its time

I'm happy not owning a 3DO.... does that count?  :mrgreen:

Yes.

Star Control 2 is the only reason for owning the system imho. Which is reason enough to not own the system.

I really like my 3do.....i think it has the best version of The Need for Speed. I really like the non closed tracks. If i recall the PS1 version was pretty different and inferior in that regard. My opinion...but i think it also has the best version of Night Trap.  Crash N Burn i found entertaining as well.
Mad Dog Mcree was great on it...but nowadays its better for CDi because of the lightgun. 3do had a lightgun but we cant use it on hdtvs....but the cdi version has a different styled lightgun that has similar tech to the Wii remotes tracking so HDTVs can still play the cdi version with the gun

If you can find a copy without dropping 250-400 bucks...Lucienne's Quest is a pretty good rpg but due to its rarity it's not worth the price people are asking.

The best version of Night Trap?

I take back everything I said. The 3DO is wonderful.

I have it on the 32X. Used to own the 3DO version as well. Yeah the one for the 3DO is more detailed and colorful.

Yeah? I have the CD-i light-gun. Never thought to test it on an HDTV, though. When I get some time I'll give it a go.

-Super Street Fighter II Turbo (Solid port with awesome soundtrack.)

-Gex (The only version that has saves instead of lame passwords.)

Wing Commander III (superior to the PS1 version.)

-Wolfenstein 3D (Far superior to the Jaguar version. Infinitely superior to the SNES version. The music is great!)


Agreed, especially gex ;)
