we need a remake and a sequel to this game ASAP

[DMConstellation]

Probably my favorite N64 game. Thanks for the nostalgia. Memberberries for the win!

I still don't understand why this game is so underrated. It amazed me back in 1999 when I was 9, now I'm 26 and I still love it, the soundtrack is epic. I wonder why this game hasn't got the 'epic' aura that most of Rare games got. For sure the most underrated game I can think of.

We miss EVERY game you made in Nintendo 64 a hint Rare

[revelore]

Nintendo 64 era is, to me, the golden era of video games

[recht_voor_zijn_raap]

Such an underrated masterpiece. .. Absolutely one of my favourite N64 games 😊Oh and that soundtrack 😍 Robin Beanland you are my hero ... Still have my old N64 and a copy of JFG 😊

[FranciscoMartinez-uzmb]

Probably one of the most underrated games of all time. Truly a classic in my heart spent hours trying to get the tribals without them getting killed, what a headache it was. Miss you RareWare Thank you for my childhood

[renkonagase]

Why this game doesn't have a sequel? I wonder if Rare have plans to make a sequel or a remake for Xbox One, this game is absolutely a masterpiece!

[JETFORCEJUN]

I won a piece of artwork signed by the Devs from an online Rare competition for this masterpiece of a game and I still have it framed!

Also, the JFG main theme can be heard in beta footage of Twelve Tales Conker 64, the Ancient Rome level.

I love how you do material about these games made almost 20 years ago! They totally deserve it. Even now, watching this, I am amazed watching the game's graphics and don't need to mention the soundtrack and every sound effect doing a complete atmosphere. And now learning how you did it... man... You really made art !

[KorenLesthe]

JFG and PDark" are still my favorite Rare games. Was so great to replay it in Rare Replay :).

[victorelias]

Probably the best game I have ever taken the time to play, made my childhood and my entire set of likes when it comes to games, Thank you Rare's team for giving countless hours with my family cousins and friends, and also gave me pretty much all the fun memories I have today. You guys on the least an award, just for making almost everyone that plays your games happy.

Although you may never read this Rare, of all your IP's released during this era, this game probably deserves a remaster more than any of them. With the exception of this and Blast Corps, all of your other N64 games have received a nice current gen makeover (Yes, I'm including Conker: Live and Reloaded).

While a Rare Replay upscale to 1080p is serviceable, this game is BEGGING for a Perfect Dark level of remaster, If not by you guys then outsourced to others, like 4J Studios with Perfect Dark.

I don't want it to sound as though it's merely ungrateful begging, but just look at this game. LOOK AT THIS GAME! A work of musical and graphical art that deserves it's just due. Perfect Dark was one of my go-to games on the N64, and the remaster not only made it EVEN BETTER, but it put Perfect Dark in contention for my favorite game of all time. Jet Force Gemini Is a criminally underrated masterpiece that, if given a proper face-lift, would get the recognition and receive the accolades it sorely deserves.

If they didn’t force you to rescue ALL those Ewoks this game would be more fondly remembered and critically acclaimed.

[rendy]

it should exist a nobel prize for all of this heroes

[daleksupreme]

Still is my favourite game. Took me 15 years to beat the final boss

[Skinkemann]

Loved JFG as a kid! 'member my dad helping me defeat Lurg as Floyd. But I never actually 100% finished it. Darn tribals. Unsure how I'd feel about the game now. That music though! :D The main theme is especially rad!

[the.bloodless.one]

Jet Force Gemini has become one of my all time favourite games, as I've revisited it again and again these past few years!!!

[Galespark]

This game is sooo good!. I still have my old N64 cartridge.
