    I thought I'd ask some people that would appreciate this kinda of stuff this question.

    I have a sealed mint condition copy of "International Sensible Soccer (Limited Edition World Cup Teams)" for the Atari Jaguar and ask, should I leave it sealed or crack it open and have a go on it?

    Thanks!!

    If it was worth 1000s sealed and you planned to sell it then leave it sealed, otherwise open her up and play away. Games were never made to stay sealed. :)

    Leave it sealed and pick up another cheap on fleabay, if you really want to play.
    DANGER though, you'll be seriously underwhelmed by everything on it excepting Tempest2000.

    ah it's not that bad, have zool 2 on it. plays fine, plus my Girlfriend got the console for me christmas last year, pretty cool gift i thought. adds to my collection of retro consoles nicely.

    Eh, yes, yes it is that bad!
    I have one and the only game that ever gets a run out is Tempest2k.
    Every now and then I go crazy and try something else, thinking "I must be wrong, there's a few games here, they can't all be bad" and to my dismay, they do... :(

    ah now it's not actually that bad.
    tempest though? it's worse than cancer with an aids complication.

    You're couldn't be any more wrong if you were Mr Wrong, from Wrongtown, with a PHD in Wrong studies, who has just gotten off a train, thinking it was Wrongsville but finding it was, in fact, Wrongtropolis.

    Tempest is there with Robotron and Galaga was one of the greatest games ever conceived and Tempest 2000 is the impossible, a game better than the original, not to mention my personal 300 investment in a Nuon and the only game it plays worth having, out of the 6 or so released, Tempest 3000, pure awesomeness!
