A chance for JJ3?
 
With JJGBA coming out, isn't there a chance (if it becomes very popular) plans for JJ3 could resurface? I'm getting sick of all the people sobbing "JJ3 will never happen". Think positive =P.

Trafton Dec 2, 2002 05:26 PM

Yes, of course. But it's still not likely.

Violet CLM Dec 2, 2002 06:39 PM

Check the topic about JJA where CliffyB talks about JJ3.

Fawriel Dec 3, 2002 04:06 AM

I forgot how to think positive sice my life turned out to be as crappy as it is.
Nice try anyways,altho this was said a few hundred times before...:rolleyes:

Stijn Dec 3, 2002 07:30 AM

Original topic.

Radium Dec 8, 2002 06:19 PM

You're missing the point, Flash. The point is to think positive.

Iam Canadian Dec 8, 2002 06:37 PM

This thought has been mentioned on just about every Jazz GBA thread. But, yes, it's very possible.

Blackraptor Dec 8, 2002 06:40 PM

Yes, and I hope it comes out for PS2, cause i dun have Xbox or gamecube....

Tik Dec 16, 2002 05:48 AM

I hope it remains exclusively on PC.

Bobby aka Dizzy Dec 16, 2002 12:37 PM

It would be ironic to have Jazz not appear on the computer seeing as how JJ1 represented the action/platform game of the era challenging Sonic and other console games.

And JJGBA won't appear on the computer. Ironic indeed.

Unciaa Dec 17, 2002 03:40 PM

Ah, the power of emulation. ;)

Here's hoping its gameplay is closer to Jazz than its apperance though [Jazz? Clothes? No comment].

Paul Dec 17, 2002 03:56 PM

Yeah, we all wish there were a couple things changed....but hey..it's Jazz, and he's back. woot. (;

btw, welcome. noticed you just registered.....

Violet CLM Dec 17, 2002 05:54 PM

Yes, I'd say JJA, along with the recent J2O publicity things, have gotten a few new people around here.

Unciaa Dec 18, 2002 01:57 AM

Heh, we were bashing the GBA version's videos on another forum [appologies to all who like/don't mind the change *g*] and someone mentioned this site. Since it took me forever to locate JJ2 [and not just The Secret Files] all the fansites had gone down by then [and the official site linked to external files for just about anything... Yay, zero downloads] I was thrilled to see at least one resource still kicking. :)

Paul Dec 18, 2002 03:41 AM

yeah..we've been doing what we can to get the word out for J2O. (:

Violet CLM Dec 18, 2002 01:06 PM

Which forum is this you speak of?

Heck no. PC exclusive.

DoubleGJ Dec 19, 2002 06:08 AM

Console are stealing way too many games from PC. Did you heard that next GTA won't be on PC? I won't be suprised if from JJA Jazz will start leaving PC.

Unciaa Dec 20, 2002 01:57 AM

Eh, "stealing" games. Consoles were always the game department, if developers choose to use them instead of PCs, we can hardly blame them, though I would of course prefer them to say on our favorite game platform [given how I don't own any consoles whatsoever].

What miffs me is all the talk there was about the XBox prior to it coming out. "Ohyes, the XBox will mean more PC games, as they will be easily ported over!"
********. We've seen how many XBox games ported to PCs so far? Zero? Sheesh. The only thing that's happened is that some PC games became XBox-exclusive because of MS. :rolleyes:

Perhaps, but Jazz is a PC icon. If developers choose them for the a next Jazz game instead of PC's, I can COMPLETELY blame them, and would slap them upside the head WITH the console in question.

What miffs ME is why they WOULD choose consoles. Sure there's set hardware to work with, but that also means there's more limitations.
And yes, the Xbox - PC ports so far are none. Halo will take a while, and MS *is* evil.

Aiko Dec 28, 2002 03:58 AM

I'm with defalcon here.

Jazz is definitely a PC hero. His main programmers are people from the PC demoscene of the early nineties (Arjan, at least).
He showed the console people that fast-paced jump and run titles can also work on the PC (not only boring stuff like MS Flight Simulators or strategy titles). Don't you remember Sonic in the manual of JJ1, saying: "Somebody get my lawyers on the phone!"? Jazz was originally a strike against the consoles.
I really don't like the idea of the new Jazz GBA game, sorry.

DoubleGJ Dec 28, 2002 07:07 AM

:) I don't have any Sonic in my JJ1 manual. Maybe you would scan it and show here? And I must agree, Jazz WAS a strike against consoles. But now, that JJA has arrived, this means something bad to us, PC users? I mean I know I have GBA but Jazz was created on PC. Sonic has already Sonic Advance 2, and what about Jazz?

Aiko Dec 28, 2002 09:36 AM

Well, the original distribution of Jazz1 included a comic manual. I once scanned mine for Wakeman's J2S site and he put it up there. Unfortunately, as you may know, J2S isn't online anymore.
Maybe you can ask Newspaz for it, i sent it to him a few months ago.

DoubleGJ Dec 29, 2002 05:32 AM

L.K. Avalon isn't nice to Polish Jazzers. Our manuals are black & white and very simple, when TSF arrived original JJ2 was removed from sale and the translation is bad. Jazz and Jazz2 are only games ever developed by L.K. Avalon in Poland. Without training they are very bad in it. :mad:

ScionFighter Dec 29, 2002 06:22 AM

Did you gyus know about some things like roms and emulators??? I dun hav GBA, and its too expensive for me. So i have downloaded a rom called "VirtualBoy Advance" that plays games on GBA, but first they have to be emulated. So i will wait for JJA emutation. I know that is illeglal, but... What can i do?

DoubleGJ Dec 29, 2002 09:28 AM

What you can do is collect money. I can't say more. :rolleyes:

ScionFighter Dec 30, 2002 04:12 AM

Yea, but i have some about 75$ (or what is 255 zl?)

DoubleGJ Dec 30, 2002 04:32 AM

Seems like the thread theme got derailed... In the JJA outro Jazz says something like this:

"I spit on retire! Jazz Jackrabbit is here to protect universe!"

So maybe we can get ready for new Jazz game? (God, please, let Epic make it!)

ScionFighter Dec 30, 2002 09:01 AM

Thats right Jazz. Let Epic do it! (guys from Jaelco has dumped the work IMO).

DoubleGJ Dec 31, 2002 05:32 AM

There are three main things they did wrong:
1. Bad use of Epic's tilesets
2. Mix up the whole story
3. Game is too short!!!

Lemme talk some about the third one. In JJA there are 5 planets (Chameleon World, Space City Carrotopolis, Icebox3, Industrial Wasteland, Chelonia IV), each has 3 levels and boss level. That gives us 5x4 = 20 levels. And the levels are quite short, especially the ones on Chameleon World and Chelonia IV. You will probably say that you have seen more tilesets on screens. Well, there are 2 levels where you can die from falling out of level: Space City Carrotopolis level 2 and Chelonia IV level 2. First one uses sever part from Colon 1 tileset with added goo, tech-ceiling, changed colors in walls and removed "Ye Sever" texts. The second one uses tileset which I call "(Darn)ed Castle". It's simply Castle 1 + (Darn) 1 + fire from Castle 2. It is used by whole Chelonia, but has two backgrounds (cosmic sky and hell).

Derby: Filter bypass replacement. The rule applies uniformly.

ScionFighter Jan 1, 2003 09:14 AM

Also the main char desing. He's dressed like a girl, has too realistic weapons and... JAZZ DON'T HAVE HIS RED HEADBAND!!! Thats disguisting!:mad:

Djaser Jan 10, 2003 09:17 AM

This idea for Jazz 3 reminds me for some reason of Duke Nukem Forever....

Ow and I think that Jazz looks pretty cool, tough I like the original version more.... According of the reviews the game is even very funny so we have nothing to complain about with the new Jazz, he is at least still alive...

DoubleGJ Jan 10, 2003 10:07 AM

Oh yes, JJA IS funny. :D

Iam Canadian Jan 10, 2003 03:48 PM

Hey, I thought we were allowed to bypass the filter when talking about the (darn) levels. Oh well.

DoubleGJ Jan 11, 2003 02:54 AM

True, it's not my fault! It's Epic who created this tileset name!!! Ahhhhhh!!!

ScionFighter Jan 11, 2003 08:43 AM

I've played JJA, don't ask how, don't ask why :D
The things are some sort of... hm... "unnatural".
But i like turtles running away when they see im gonna toss carrot grenade :D
