Has anyone else played this totally sweet game and its two expansions and its sequal or any of the things I mentioned in any combination?

Anybody?

Jazz Jackrabbit = Awesome.

I loved those games.  I only played the first one and the Xmas edition though.  I heard there's a Jazz Jackrabbit 2 but it isn't as good.  I need to find out where to get it again.  Those games kicked ass.

Isn't that from Epic MegaGames? If so I'm going to find it now.

Yes, it is indeed by Epic Megagames, from what Swift says.

Damn, they only have JJ 2.  I wanted the first for nostalgia reasons...oh well.

The first was a dos game...and also shareware.  BUT MAN IT WAS GREAT!!!  I used to have the origional, but I think the disk got corrupted somehow.

There is supposed to be a GBA version, but....I don't know anything about it.

Oh and for PC there, it is a side scrolling 2D shooter that involves blasting reptiles who have kidnapped your hot rabbit girl friend and now you are mad as hell and your not gonna take it any longer.

Jazz Jackrabbit is indeed a great game. I still own the original, on floppy. (too lazy to put it on a computer with internet, though. So many other things to do....)

maybe, but I dunno, but abandonia sometimes has game music on their site. Check their music section.

Do what I do and go to volume control, go to your recording settings and make the computer record "stereo mix" it records any sounds going on your computer with perfect quality.  That's how I get music out of my Super NES Roms.

Yay, I knew looking at Catalog.EXE had some use!
Ok, since no one here seems to what to upload it, I'll just grab it from somewhere else.

ACK! It won't play... Grr. I can't even make a DOS boot because I don't have any floppies... Swiftman, send me you're computer now!
