Source: JCF Thread
Astroid City, the fifth level from blur’s SP Jazz Unleashed demo, was infamously never even beaten by blur himself.
Have a video. (That’s community member Sir Ementaler, for the record.)

Epic Games Hiring Big Huge Games Team, They Are Using an Old Epic IP - June 3rd 2012
Source: http://epicgames.com/community/2012/06/big-problems-need-huge-solutions/
Big Huge Games was closing recently, so they approached Epic, and asked if they could use one of their old IPs, but Big Huge Games were running out of money FAST, so Epic hired the entire team, and they are going to work on an old IP of Epic’s.
Fingers crossed that it’s Jazz Jackrabbit(Although I can’t think of any old IPs that Epic own apart from Epic Pinball)!

Has anyone else besides me seen this yet? - April 16th 2012
Source: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8_ZpYxuWbcc&feature=g-vrec&context=G252b703RVAAAAAAAAAA
I was browsing on youTube, and I stumbled across this.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8_ZpYxuWbcc&feature=g-vrec&context=G252b703RVAAAAAAAAAA
It’s supposedly included with the Unreal Development Kit.
I’m not sure whether to be happy or offended by this video, and frankly it’s a year and a half old so it probably doesn’t mean anything significant anyway, but it IS Jazz Jackrabbit publicity, so I thought I’d get the word out and let the chips fall where they may.
