Actually, there are several fabulous real games you *can* play on your
32X right now!! These include games like the award-winning Sonic the
Hedgehog, Ecco the Dolphin, Road Rash 1 & II, and many others!
Boy oh boy, I should get a 32X right now so I can play all these

Well, I've gotta admit, you've got one hell of a sense of humor!! Very
very good stuff; I LIKE IT!! I hope they can top these, though...By the
way, if anyone knows anything about whether or not MK II will come out to
complement this already amazing group of software (though I have to admit,
beating Metallica's One will be hard to do, even for MK!! BTW, "One"
should be changed to "Fade to Black", coming from one official Metalliker
junkie... :-) Thanks for any info...!!
sincerely, ashish mehta

Laugh it up boys. I have a Jag and I just bought a 32X w/Star
Wars Arcade and Virtua Deluxe. The 32X games are really good. It would'nt
suprise me if the 32X had more games out before Christmas than the Jag
has all year. I love my Jag, but the 32X is going to be a million seller
this Christmas. It's already got the 3rd party support up the wazoo.

As a matter of fact, I did see Sonic!!! It's a 1st-person Doom-like game
too! The only problem is, it's underground (you know hedgehogs) so you
can't see anything.

I'll second that.....

well, there are 2 games, but that is still pretty funny. However, lets
look at a jag top ten:
10:cybermorph (does this count a game? ick)
9:trevor mcfur (id -rather- look at a black screen)
8:AvP
7:Dino Dudes (love those lemmings!)
6:Wolfenstein 3-d (sharwarefare, but done well)
5:Tempest 2k (fun, but not really a 64bit show off. great game tho)
4:Raiden (ok translation, old game)
3:play with the rotating jaguar cube (better than #9 and #10)
2:wait for new jag game (I think we've all played this one, and i think
we all hate it)
1:sell jaguar (becoming more and more popular everyday!)
For the read-between-the-lines-impaired : THIS IS A JOKE.
Surprising, tho, that the same mag that loved cybermorph and has been
un-ashamedly pro-jag is saying that VRdeluxe beats the crap out of
checkered flag 2. Better be careful what you say before you play both.

Relevant excerpt from "One" by Metallica:
Darkness
Imprisoning me
All that I see
Absolute horror
I cannot live
I cannot die
Trapped in myself
Body my holding cell
Landmine
Has taken my sight
Taken my speech
Taken my hearing
Taken my arms
Taken my legs
Taken my soul
Left me with life in hell
This was on Metallica's last passable album, "...And Justice For
All" (1988). After the success of this song (which deserved all its 7.5
minutes of space on the CD), they decided to cheese out and write 4-minute,
one-riff wonders. They sold three times as many albums, but their artistic
integrity went out the window. Check out "Ride the Lightning" (1984) and
"Master of Puppets" (1986) for some real music.
Why is it that almost all good music was released in '84, '86, or '88?
Sorry 'bout the tangent.

That Metallica album came with a black cover, and the graphics were also
printed in black. Sounds weird, so I'll explain:
The cover was printed with gloss black, and the graphics were printed in
Matte black. So even though they were the same "color" you could make out
the graphics if you held it up to the light the right way.

Sorry Marty, you're mistaken. The Metallica:One refers to the song "One"
on the Metallica album "And Justice For All". It is taken from the movie,
"Johnny Got His Gun", and is about a man who loses all of his senses save
the sense of touch.

about the bad aspects of WWI.

The song One by Metallica is about this guy who got his arms, legs, eyes,

Actually this isn't what the guy was referring to.. the song One (which is
on "...And Justice For All" and not the black self-titled album) is about
a guy in a war who gets his legs/arms blown off and ends up deaf and blind.
It's inspired by some film called 'Johnny Got His Gun"

Close... "Johnny Got His Gun". Leonard Maltin gives it 2.5 stars in
his book, and says "Featuring Timothy Bottoms as an American World War I
soldier who loses his legs, eyes, ears, mouth, and nose after a German
artillery shell explodes, this is a morbid, depressing antiwar film with
flashes of brilliance."
I thought it was excellent. The most depressing film I've ever seen.

I never got to see the movie, though I read the book. Dalton Trumbo
(sp?) who wrote the book I think also directed the movie, so I can
imagine it must be very close to the original story. I noticed in the
One video the lower part of his face was still intact, though covered by
a white cloth. I remember in the book that whole section of his face was
gone. That would have been a tough make-up effect to do for an old
low-budget film though.
If you liked "Johnny Got His Gun", maybe you should check out "All Quiet
On The Western Front" I never got a chance to see the movie, I only read
the book (again :), but the People's Almanac 1978 rated it one of the 10
best films, among Citizen Kane & The Bicycle Thief, and supposed to be
quite profound about the affects of war. The imagery I don't think is as
explicit as Johnny Got His Gun though, since All Quiet is many years
older and tame by more recent standards.
Whoops, maybe this belongs in alt.cult-movies :)

Just thought I'd mention, Johnny Got His Gun is a great BOOK too! =)
The video is actually based on the movie though. =) In the book
the soldier isn't quite as suicidal (though I've never seen the movie =(
