Ah, had one and loved it. Sonic Adventure is one of the best games ever made, and even though it's outdated in this day and age, it's still a beauty to watch and play. Not to mention it gave Sonic a sudden storyline.

I miss Sega's days of hardware making. They gave up too fast on the D-cast.

Not to my knowledge, they don't. They made more games after it died here, but that was short-lived.

Is there anymore online support for DC? Not that I'd ever take it online though.... just a weird question.

A few games are still online, Quake 3, for example.

Also, a group of gamers set up a homebrew PSO server, so that'll be available online forever.

ooh... is the PSO server free? if it is, i just may have to hunt down a DC and PSO for it.

I was gonna get it on Gamecube here soon anyway (Ah... the joys of getting a pay check ever 2 weeks), but the DC had a few games I wanted... plus they're cheap. does it have a broadband port though? otherwise i'm screwed.

All the info you need can be found here for the PSO server, including PSOv2 for the DC which you can burn onto a CD and play.

I love mine, it's probably my favorite videogame system. I have 60-something games for it, my favorite being Jet Set Radio.
Don't make me post my Hello Kitty DC.

I've got lots o dreamcast games, I enjoy Fighting Vipers 2, Skies of Arcadia, THe Street Fighter games and all emulators that you can play on it.

Phantasy Star Online was great because Sega although drifting from the other games finally revived the Phantasy Star Line.

I love my DreamCast @.@ I'll probably end up parting with it for hope of ever getting a PS2 though...as I've played all the games I want to for it save a few that are in Japanese and a couple of games that are really hard to get around here.

Faves: Sonic Adventure 1 & 2, Shenmue, Alone in the Dark

It's not a fav but I feel Eccho deserves mention for it's graphics alone

Least Favs: Sonic Shuffle, Death Crimson OX

Still got my DC. Wish I'd gotten more games tho. I have Powerstone 2, ECW Hardcore Revolution (it was 5 bucks), King Of Fighters: Evolution, and Fatal Fury: Mark Of The Wolves.

I know they released the Japanese version of Shenmue 2 on Dreamcast...if I could just get traslations for some Japanese DC games @.@ I'd have a lot more to play. Mostly the Sakura Wars seires though. Somehow I find it fubared that they released the anime here but not the video games when the video games were what came first. x.X

Has anyone else played Rez or Ikaruga?

Easily two of my favorite games, both on Dreamcast.

They sold the European version of Shen Mue in the states. It's probably hard to find now.
