I was seeing my "child backlog" for games that I didn't finished or got close, whatever... and I saw this game, which for reasons that I didn't remember, I didn't finish it. So this weekend I started playing again from the top to see what this bad boy could do and finished just before writting this.

Nostalgic feeling:
I remember having a lot of fun with this game. It was a 3D beat 'em up with a loved person from the 90's that says funny quotes from time to time. You can't go wrong with it, right?

Today's feeling:
Yeah, they messed up. Not for the most part, but a lot.

The game suffers from the slippery floor thing that we see in a lot of early 3d games. The plataforming is broken, needing perfect timing and placing or you will clip in the floor or something. There's some really great moves, but by the second zone you probably used them all. There's various objects that Jackie can use as a weapon, and they have nice coreographs, but the fact that they broke too soon and you can only use in the same area that you got is a bummer. The boss fights are great, but I felt that not all of them got really finished. The dragon heads collection is a nice and not easy thing to do, but you only unlock an outfit?!

So yeah, this game starts great and becomes kinda boring. Still is ok thou. I can recomend to a friend with patience

If I remember right I had a demo disc from Official Playstation Magazine, which had Jackie Chan Stuntmaster.

I really wanted the game but never got it.

Brings back memories

Such a great game, definetly one of my favs from PS1.

I've never play this.
Maybe I can checking out, one day

 

[PropellerEar]

Never found this at the game stores in my town, so I didn't get to play it.

 

[RokkanStoned]

Wow, I remember this game. Think I either played it at a McDonalds in Sweden or on a Playstation demo disc.
Was always big into Jackie Chan, so kinda wanted it, but luckily I had a surprisingly good taste for what games are good back in the day, so I never bought it. It's probably all right, but considering I lucked out on buying most of the big playstation classics, I wouldn't want to miss out one of them for this.

Great game, still have it. Played a lot and finished it in the 90's multiple times.

He gets multiple fighting styles, at least after finishing it. Drunken style is cool

Gotta play it after i finish dino crisis 2

 

[01011001]

what they absolutely nailed is the artstyle. it is blocky by design and therefore works really well with the capabilities of the PS1.
they also use the same style in prerendered scenes and this also helps in keeping a cohesive style

For creating this thread, I could kiss you right now.
I'm in a platonic relationship with this game. It's fun as hell, the combat is addictive and it has Jackie fucking Chan.
What's not to love? Although the platforming was rather weak.
Probably my favorite PS1 era game ever second only to Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver.

 

[Digity]

Great game.

 

[marquimvfs]

Awesome game. I won't call the platform broken, its a design decision, just like Castlevania Rondo of Blood.

The platforming wasn't broken but it could get frustrating sometimes.
The Water Front level is my least favorite part of the game for this reason.

This is a very underappreciated game, easily one of my favorites on the PS1. Me, my brother and my cousins we used to take turns and play it, such good memories. Thanks for bringing it up

 

[mortal]

haha I had this as a kid. Pretty enjoyable and funny game.

I recall it being a bit harder towards the latter half.

 

[Captain Hero]

So many memories man .. fun game

 

[bronk]

Had such a great time with this game. I love Jackie's voice overs.

[MasterDerico]

This, Crisis beat, Panzer Bandit and Mad Stalkers... Brilliant games, still play those!

 

[mortal]

lol that's essentially the game. The goon voice and everything.

"Leave me alone"

Pablo Francisco is fuckin funny man, watch the rest of that performance if you haven't seen it lol.

OMG I LOVED THIS GAME SO MUCH ON PS1. BRINGS BACK A LOT OF GOOD CHILDHOOD MEMORIES WITH THIS. Sorry for all caps, was so happy to see this thread pop up here.

 

[H4ze]

Ahhh good childhood memories, played the game mostly on a demo disc, but I remember renting it once over a weekend, good times.
