3DO ZONE Forums

To Shockwave and Shockwave: Operation Jumpgate on the 3DO? In terms of graphics, it does look as good; I found this scan of the back of the Sega Saturn box: http://www.mobygames.com/game/sega-satu ... rId,66932/

But are the controls and the FMV as good? And, are there different difficulty levels?

So far, the only negative differences I've been able to spot between 3DO games, and the same titles on the PS1 or Saturn have been with The Need for Speed and Starship. Neither game looks as good as their 3DO counterparts.

This is a good question. I never even considered playing Shockwave on another platform. I wonder if all the content is in the ports.

AFIK, it is-it's 2 discs, Shockwave, and then Jumpgate, the expansion.

I have it on Saturn so I'll chuck it in in the next few weeks and see

OK, thanks! IGN's old review claims that controls are horrible: http://psx.ign.com/articles/150/150679p1.html
I find that hard to believe, unless they were really messed up during the conversion process.
