Unfortunatl;y it's coming to X-box =( bt theyre doing it that way so they can focus on some of the X-box's capabilities, and it's better than making a crapy game for three sytems, but damn it looks good =)

Woah, nice pics! I only played Toe Jam and Earl a few times long ago on Genesis, but I do remember that it was crazy fun :D

Do you know if Sega own the license to those characters? For some reason I thought they did, but I'm not sure.

[Cronic]

Nope, it's two guys developing this game =) They own it. Theyre really nice to their fans as well. I got the rights to use their music for whatever I may need it for.

Wow... it lives...

[Hermit]

God that Genesis game was so simple... so monotonous... and yet so addicting. I wonder if they will be able to retain the same great formula ;)

Hallelujah!!

Damn. Those graphics are sharper than most I've seen to date. It looks like Mario mixed with Banjo Kazooie and a dash of Crash Bandicoot.

[Cronic]

they have put 5 years into formulating this game with the original playability in mind =)

[Hermit]

Well good, I don't expect it'll turn to shit then as most "next-gen" franchises do when they upgrade to new consoles ;)

[Cronic]

yeah, and I really respect what theyre doing... sux that it has to be on the box, but damn I have to play it.

Damn...sweet. Ack, there may be a reason to get X-Box after all.

Bugger, I've been waiting for that since TJ&E2, first I saw it on an N64 release list, then Gamecube, now I can't have it.
Shit. :(

That's true.. I think it's an Xbox thing.. practically all their games look like that.. particularly Shrek and Oddworld... very sharp.. almost too sharp..

Personally I think it detracts from the graphics a little bit when it's that sharp... reminds you that you are playing a game too much..

[Cronic]

Your absolutly right Warlock... X-box graphics have an ungodly sharpness to them.. it makes a lotta animation look cracked, but I'm thinking they'll break past all that.

My thoughts exactly.... after they lower the damn price of course. And after I get a Job too. Iwonder how many players it will support... 2 3 or 4? Arent there only 3 characters?

[Cronic]

looks like only 2 so far. I'm fine with that though
