Breakout 2000

The Good
But BREAKOUT 2000 is a lot more like what I expect from the Jaguar. Although the gameplay is straightforward BREAKOUT, the graphics are nicely upgraded for a futuristic 3D look. The various sound effects are decent, and I rather like the background music (although it is repetitive). And although B2K is great as a 1-player game, the 2-player really shines; it's a heck of a lot of fun to fire your ball over to your enemy's paddle and watch him miss it - heh heh!

The Bad
By today's standards the graphics are quaintly ''old school'', but BREAKOUT 2000 still rocks. In comparison I've rented some games for my ''current generation'' system that didn't give me anywhere near B2K's level of gameplay, and these games certainly aren't worth as much as B2K.

The Bottom Line
I definitely think B2K is one of the better Jaguar games, and I'd place it in my ''top 5'' along with games like Tempest 2000, DOOM, or Iron Soldier. Every Jaguar owner should check this game out!
