Atari Jaguar: Defender 2000 vs Protector SE

[Mika73]

What do you think..

Whats difference of Defender and Protector anyway..

I did just buy Defender 2000 and I am thinking of Protector SE next..

Protector SE comes with a cd that lets you play homebrew games. It is slower and less flashy but I prefer it. Not worth the money unless you are a big Defender fan

[Mika73]

Defender 2000 is better than Protector SE ?

Or if I already have Defender 2000, I dont need to get Protector SE ?

[Cripper]

If you like Defender get both. Protector is a better game than Defender 2000 but it costs £40+

look at the reviews on this site http://www.ataritimes.com

Isn't it weird that Yak managed to make Pong an amazing experience (again)?

Adore Plasma Pong.

And for the record, I think Defender Plus is my favorite iteration. Still the elegant simplicity of Defender, but with that extra sheen of modernity. Plus, love those lightning bolts!

Pete Dorr, the legendary American videogame-loving dude who regularly posts insightful game videos on YouTube, has uploaded a great Defender 2000 gameplay video.

Definitely worth a look and listen; it runs to about half an hour but Pete shares some real love for the game. Check it out:
