This might be the very first time I've entered the eBay forum, but I just came across an auction I find interesting and wanted to share. I already have everything in the auction, and don't have any spare change right now anyway, but this looks like a pretty good deal to me.

This morning, on the way to work, I was thinking about how interested I was in the Jag scene about 4 or 5 years ago, and Jaguar Interactive (& JI II). I thought of how the scene, at least for me, sort of stagnated and I stopped hitting the Jag websites. I then thought to myself that I hadn't heard anything about Battlesphere in a long time, and wondered if that was because I left the scene, or if interest had simply died down.

So I searched for scatalogic and 4play websites, and struck out. I then searched eBay for Battlesphere and found the above. I find two things, in addition to a surprisingly low price (which might rise nearer the close of the auction), noticeable:
1) The line about the graphics being as good as the N64 or Gamecube - come on, they're good, but not nearly as good as the Gamecube, and in most cases probably not as good as the N64. For that matter, the N64 is of course not in the same league as the Gamecube.
2) Battlesphere - no box? How would anybody get a copy of Battlesphere and not keep the box and instructions? That seems very strange to me.

Oh well.
