After reading the wikipedia and seeing that no port, not even the midway treasures is arcade accurate, I figured I'd try to pick up the game for Jamma. I've got several four button+ machines on hand and was hoping to get a good deal. Last night I won it for $20.50 + shipping. I couldn't be happier. I love Primal Rage (even have some of the toys) and now I'll be playing it as intended for less than you can get it for most cd-based consoles.

Been contemplating doing this myself, sounds like you got a steal. Will you be using a cab or a gun?

BeefMan, why do you think that the Jaguar version is better than the 3DO?

I know that these two console versions of Primal Rage use the same backgrounds/color art, and that the 3DO has bigger characters, but less controller buttons(?), but what is the biggest difference in your opinion?

I have both versions and the size of the character sprites are pretty much identical between the 3DO and Jaguar. I prefer the Jaguar version because I think it has better color, the 3D0 version kinda has a green screen effect where the colors on the character sprites aren't lit the same as the backgrounds. I also prefer the controls on the Jaguar better.

If anyone is interested I've put my 2nd copy up on ebay. This is by no means a pristine copy but a worthy addition to anyone's Jaguar CD library. I happen to love this game personally. Was quite a surprise when I walked into Babbages back in the day looking for something new for my Jag and spotting this guy. Also remember my buddy bringing home the 3DO version the same day, good times! I may be biased but I think the Jag version beats the 3DO version hands down :P . Also a quick note for you guys, if you select the same character in a versus match the game will actually load additional frames of animation for that character, check it out and you'll see what I mean, plays very smooth.
