Oh man, why is that forum down? I wanted to contribute to it!

I'm telling you guys, be patient, never give up, and ANNOY THE **** OUT OF THEM! Or Epic, or whoever owns the rights to Jazz Jackrabbit games. Some people say forget it, it's pointless, Jazz has no future. Screw that!

You know, I'm also a very huge Sierra fan and Sierra went through a lot of changes since 1996. So many talented people that made their series and their success got laid off, Sierra was focusing on "new projects" rather than what they are all about. There was going to be a Space Quest 7, but it wasn't going to be too great. Now a new guy has bought the company, and he's rehiring staff and doing his homework on what made the company so great. He is determined to bring back Sierra and bring back the old series, starting with SQ7. It seems promising, and if they come back, it's because the fans never forgot about the series, and bugged Sierra a lot.

Now Sierra has many game series with many sequels and many fans for each. They sold well. Jazz hasn't been given enough of a chance. There was Jazz Jackrabbit, it sold well I think, right? And Jazz 2 didn't. But CC and TSF only came out in Europe, and they were the same engine anyway. Jazz hasn't been on GameBoy Advance, hasn't been on any consoles, hasn't been in 3D! There's so much they could do with the series, and it would make a lot of money I think.

So why do they want to be so quick to give up on it? Maybe we should annoy Project 3 Interactive or Epic, or maybe we should just email the animators of the games, and they can work for a company that would like to work on the project and would be able to make it good, and not just just another bland 3D platformer. I know just what Jazz 3 should be like. It would blend elements of Jazz 1 and 2, Fur Fighters, and some solid 3D platformers that are very popular. It would be a third-person platformer/shooter, but you could see Jazz from any angle.

If we're patient and persistant and we email the right people, the project will be in the bag. Ya know, I hope!
