Got a jaguar the other day, boxed with cybermorph and also a lose doom cart, box is about 7/10 but all the leads, controller, and consoles are very much mint! its such a great machine! i love the way doom runs on this and can't wait to play AVP! too bad it commands a high premium, have put a post in wanted for it

Congrats. AvP is is a great game but just be warned, it is a very different type of FPS than Doom. Anyways there are a lot of great games for the Jag. Enjoy.

Do yourself a favor and look for a copy of Tempest 2000, I just got my copy in the mail today and can't believe how much fun I'm having in the short time I've had it. Really wishing I'd bought it sooner! Oh by the way for doom find yourself a good soundtrack for it, as much fun as it is its much more fun with music, my personal favorite is a dark ambient/industrial album by a group called Temple of Not the music is extremely unsettling and at times filled with horrific screams on the album I have by them, really freaky shit and it actually makes the game pretty damn scary. :P

And if you get Tempest 2000, you might want to get a rotary controller (",)

At least you remembered where to get them. All I remembered was a bunch of them on ebay a few years ago which would be no use to the OP.

Rotary controllers are custom made so fetch a higher price. You might want to ask for one in the marketplace.

It looks like you've replaced the A B C buttons with controller knob instead of fitting it on the left, any reason for it? I guess i'll be buying one from ebay soon unless i pick up another jag controller and have a go at modding one myself, im pretty nifty at these things

Those do look pretty sweet but I just don't play Tempest enough to justify a purchase.
