Today in school was a special day.

A friend of mine is a regular gamer, he owns and loves the 360 to death.

I was playing Strikers 1945 II on the school computers (him and others were watching me dodging those bullets 8-)), and he was said: "I have a similar game on the Atari." I said: "Oh really, 2600?" He said: "No, Atari Jaguar." I said: "Holy crap, I don't like the Jaguar that much!"

After that comment, we were both talking about the Jaguar and how bad it failed in the US. He knows a lot about the Jaguar which suprise me the most. He owns three Jaguar units with the CD-ROM attachment and almost all the games that came out for it. He's missing about six games, if he had the six games his collection would be complete. The game he was looking for the most was Iron Soldier II (he loves the first one).

He said that he has some of the most rarest games for the system, and he said "I have the most rarest game for the Jaguar, Air Cars. It sucks!!" I said: "You know that game costs over $300." He said: "I know, $300 for a crappy game." I said: "How did you get the game?" He said: "I go to this guy you see, this is the guy where I always get my Jaguar games and stuff. This is back when the Jaguar was still selling. I was his best customer so he will always save me a copy of a game. It could be a good game, or it could be a crappy game, but I would still buy it. Anyway, after two months when Atari stop supporting the Jaguar, the guy was able to get 4 copies of Air Cars, and of course he saved me a copy for me. I purchase the game for, I don't know, $50 I think. Anyway, I came home and played it, and I didn't like it too much. After I finish playing it I put the game in a cardboard box and it's still there ever since. I give it some play time now and then, but I didn't like it too much. If I need some quick cash, I know what to sell."

Will update more of this later, because I'm in school. :D

That's weird, he sounds so much like a guy I know from my college. He's obsessed with 360 too, he plays arcade games on his laptop with my boyfriend during class, and he has a complete Jaguar collection. What a weird coincidence. o_O

So if he bought the game for $50, how did it cost him $300? x_x

I think Fighter17 meant he told his friend it costs $300 e.g. on eBay but its not worth it, but his friend did buy it for $50 back in the day

Looks like a typo as he put "cost" instead of costs...

But yeah, its funny when crappy games are worth pure $ LOL

Yes jelly, that's what I ment.

He told me that the game sucks major balls, and both of us couldn't believe it that it cost over 300 bucks on ebay. @_@
