Default Net Jet by Hasbro/Tiger Games

This is the Net Jet

This is the Foster's key for Net Jet

Apparently its a special controller you buy "keys" for, for playing online games. Stumbled across it while doing an online search for more Foster's toys, thought I'd share it with you guys. It doesn't look like something I'll be investing in personally, especially since I don't believe in buying a system just to play one game.

This was available as a game in the Cartoon Network arcade IIRC for $19.95.

Quote:
Unlock four exciting games in your own online arcade with this PC online game key! Unlock the Buggin? Out game directly with this key and choose three more games form the online game arcade!


Buggin? Out
Blooregard has upended Mac?s science fair project, and now a bunch of bugs are on the loose! Help the friends at Foster?s collect the swarm of creepy-crawlers, including worms, ladybugs, grasshoppers and more!

Requires the NET JET Instant Online Game Controller (Sold separately).

From Hasbro's site about the NetJet system
Quote:

Unlock your own online arcade with this easy-to-use controller! Plug the NET JET controller into the USB port of your PC (not included). Insert the Demo Key (included) into your controller, and you?ll be connected to all kinds of online games! Unlock limited versions of NET JET games from an online arcade!

No more mouse or keypad clicking. No more endless navigating to find your games. NET JET takes you directly to the games, faster than ever. No ads. No pop-ups. Just tons of games! Collect NET JET game keys (each sold separately) and unlock more games!

Includes game controller with USB connector, demo key and game instructions.

PC system requirements (minimum/recommended):

Operating System - Windows® 2000/Windows® 2000/XP
Processor Speed ? 800 MHz/1GHz
Hard Drive Speed ? 600 MB available/1 GB available
Memory - 128 MB RAM/256 MB RAM
CD-ROM Drive ? 8X/52X
Video ? 3-D accelerated with 32 MB Video RAM/3-D accelerated with 128MB Video RAM
DirectX ? 7/7

NET JET is not compatible with Mac OS.
The gamekey itself costs $14.99 on their site, and the controller is $24.99 on their site as well. Personally I can't say if either is any good, or any bad since I don't own this thing yet. I would be glad to give impressions when I buy it. I'm sure in the future, we might see future Foster's titles... IF this thing actually does succeed.

I saw the system and game at Toys R Us today so I took some pics:

System and game

Back of game package

I would personally only buy this if they come out with more games I'd like. The system is $25 and the game units are $15 apiece. Apparently though, for the $15 you get the game the package specifies, plus you can go online and get 3 others from a list, for a total of 4 games. Those online ones may or may not be any good though...

Personally, I'm a little on the fence about buying this. The last time Tiger released a console, Game.com, it was basically a bomb.

Oooh, I saw an advert for this on YTV, not the game itself but the game pad. I thought it looked pretty awesome, cheep online multiplayer gaming. It looks cool, a bit cooler now that I know theres a Fosters game. I'd only buy it if I knew friends were getting one too though.
