Got a Dreamcast?

[yo_yo_man 23]

Anyone out there besides me that thought Dreamcast was a great system and should have never gone down the drain??? Just wondering. :)

[Gaara[ i ]]

Dreamcast got ripped off of its money cause you dont need a mod chip to play bootleg games

[Hayabusa]

I really wanted a DC but never got to buy one.

[Ssj3_Goku]

DC was a good system very good syetm. Had great games as well . Soul calibur anyone? grandia 2? woot!

[CStarFlare]

Dreamcast was great just because of Jet Set Radio. That and Resident Evil Code: Veronica were the reasons I bought a DC. I always wanted to try Typing of the Dead, too, but I never got a hold of it. DC had a lot of neat games.

The memory cards with screens on them were awesome, too.

[niceguy645]

hell, that is how the gaming industry works...soon the PS2 will be discontinued when they release the PS3

[Lunasakuramoon]

yeah, i liked it too. it wasnt popular for long, but it was cool while it lasted. ^_^

[IkariBattousai]

It came out before I could get a job so I didn't have the money, but I'd still probably buy one.

[yo_yo_man 23]

ahh...Dreamcast...brings back so many good memories...soul calibur and grandia 2 and the sonic adventure series... :)

[Dave86]

Dreamcast was not cool any other system pwns it

[yo_yo_man 23]

Dreamcast was not cool any other system pwns it

OMG you did not just say that!!! lol Everyone is entitled to their opinion but in this case Dreamcast is cool, haha. :smile-big :smile-big

The Dreamcast was cool becuase the games and how it was the beginning of a revolution in the console industry as we know today, plus im a sega fan. :P

[Donkey Show]

I lost my mind when Phantasy Star Online came out for it. I played that game to death on its silly modem. Rock.

[Powerfulfight316]

I got a DC just to play shenmue, god that game is awesome, the perfect mix of rpg and action, even with the new hits today like mgs3 and halo2 i still go back to play good ole shenmue.

[Nine Nine]

Dreamcast was the ish. I still go back to it once in a while to play some CAP VS. SNK 2, SF Alpha 3, SF 3: Third Strike, and of course the greatest Japanese wrestling game of all time, Fire Pro D.

[DaktheRipper]

Dreamcast was awesome at the time. Skies of Arcadia, power stone......something else..... CLASSICS! you have to check out this link if you know the story of dreamcast

[issaru]

Dreamcast was not cool any other system pwns itdream cast was a great system. it was the first with online play, graphic power can rival that of the so called "great" x-box, and thous memory cards where cool! all en all i still play me DC... but when i come home and see that x-box sitting by the tv... i cry.... god i hate that system...

[SoulFire]

man, the DC was awesome. it still is! I thank god i have one...SC, PSO, Shenmue, CAP VS. SNK 2, SF Alpha 3, SF 3, jet Set radio and MANY more awesomness..

In fact; I'll go play some right now!

[hokuten]

dreamcast was a great system with a lot of potential! Hell I still HAVE my DC along with my collection of games! I just think that it got overwhelmed since it's competitors were PS2, GC, and Xbox. It was the first console to have Internet capability (before PS2, etc.), and online play. Personally sometimes I think my DC has better graphics than my PS2, and better loading time. :P

[issaru]

all i got is shenmue and sonic adventure.... T_T
i got my from a thrift store after they stoped selling it, been meaning to buy SC thou

its only flaw... the thing is loud as a monkey on crack

[hokuten]

lol, thats true. sometimes i worry that my DC sounds like it's gonna explode, but its just loading. XD

[Eclikps]

I love dreamcast i still play it best game for it Marvle Vs Capcom 2[just felt better on that system]

[tklown]

The DC was awesome, Shenmue was one of my favorite games, RE: Code Veronica was good too, and it had some other good games

[yo_yo_man 23]

I love dreamcast i still play it best game for it Marvle Vs Capcom 2[just felt better on that system]

I loved that game, it was my first game for the dreamcast

[baga_jutsu]

Dreamcast was not cool any other system pwns it

Dude, how can you say that. can't you see that hurts me...I"m crying now.

Anyways. that comment is unfounded an obviously due to brainwashing by evil microsoft. Anyone who is a true gamer knows that Dreamcast was pretty cool and revolutionary for its time. Not to mention the cool games. Go soul calibur, grandia 2, skies of arcadia, power stone, shenmue, etc. cause there's too many.

[Kami-Sama]

I love dreamcast i still play it best game for it Marvle Vs Capcom 2[just felt better on that system]

i also own the game on ps2 but only play it on the DC since the DC ver got no loading times and also got the sound right...not ps2 fault since MVC2 was designed for the naomi board so it was a perfect conversion for the machine....

it was a sad fate for the system... i work at a game store and they still sell ps1 titles while dc got the boot...

it was my fav party machine (multiplayer) that was until....SSMBM came and pwned my soul and the souls of my friends :D

[yo_yo_man 23]

it was my fav party machine (multiplayer) that was until....SSMBM came and pwned my soul and the souls of my friends :D

Haha, same here, SSMBM controlled my life when it came out :smile-big Dreamcast was also my favorite party machine, it just had the best games on it.

[Zhongda]

didn't buy it but... but i played it at ma cousins place
it sucked ass, bigtime!

[aLkeMiSt]

Dreamcast is awesome, thats why its still popular in Japan. They still make games from the dreamcast there.

[CrazyCelt]

True. One of the few reasons I still try to learn Kanji at my advanced age is to import even the text heavy stuff...

[aLkeMiSt]

My friend still downloads and burns dreamcast games... even the Japanese ones. The games are still easily playable even with the Japanese text.

[yo_yo_man 23]

yea, my friend does that too, and then he lets me burn them, so nice :smile-big

[nigggs]

Dreamcast was the GOAT.

nuff said.

[Chillin]

You're damn right Dreamcast was cool. That was my system for the fighting games and arcade type games, just plain awesome

[yo_yo_man 23]

did u know that they still make dreamcast games in japan!?!?!?!?!?

i didnt know that, but i heard that the games they do make arent that good though, but still, i wish they still made DC games here. :)

[nigggs]

dreamcast was the greatest system ever!

nuff said :thumbs

[dbcomix]

i got alot of cool games for my dreamcast but my back plug to the tv broke so i can't play the cool games i have!:crying :bored

[nigggs]

^so get it replaced. Cant play video games? no excuse man!:P

[dbcomix]

they don't sell them in shops no more and i don't have a credit card to order one.:nerve

[Kai_Phocks]

I loved Dreamcast. In fact, I still have one. Only one game, but it's a good one. Power Stone 2. I wanna also find Virtual On: Otario Tangrem (for those that played the new Virtual On games, and think they're great, then you've obviously never played the old versions, the new game is horrid in comparison). DC was also the greatest fighting game system to come into existence :amuse .

[dbcomix]

i have powerstone 2 too! also rival schools: projct justice , chu chu rocket , and shenmue 2.

in my oppinion dreamcast has better graphics than ps2.

[kane_x]

I always was going to buy on but never had the money to actually buy it. I loved the games you could play on it, like Jet Set Future and Soul Calibur.

[Donkey Show]

Man, I want to play Project Justice again. I hope it comes out on some console sometime in the future.

[nigggs]

i got all the great DC games, and still play it over ps2 and xbox till this day. Llong live sega.:thumbs

[TTN]

I did but I never really used it. I'm trying to find some used games currently.

[dbcomix]

the internet has them like ign.com and other gaming sites... try amazon.com or ebay!!

[PhearTehGrimace]

I bought 3 dreamcasts lol.

[Neon]

I remember going to a freinds house to play jet set and sonic, good times :)

[underopiate]

i loved DC...MVC2!

[Ssj3_Goku]

Dreamcast man i still say its better than PS2 the only thing ps2 had was square and square did not want to make games for sega. o well. I still play it to this day.

[darkturkey]

The Dreamcast had Grandia 2, Shemue, Skies of Arcadia, and a good sms emulator. It just had real crapy marketing in North America. I'd buy it if my brother didn't already own one, it blows away n64 and saturn (I really hated saturn, I only liked S:tHA).

[Wave]

Skies of Arcadia, MvC2, CvS, all those game were fun. also got to watch vcds off of it and play old school games :D.

*picks no in poll*
my cousin didnt WANT me to buy it off of him...he ended up giving the damn thing to my younger cousins =\ which is bull

[yo_yo_man 23]

Dreamcast man i still say its better than PS2 the only thing ps2 had was square and square did not want to make games for sega. o well. I still play it to this day.

totally agree with this!!! I also still play it to this day, played soul calibur the other day :smile-big

Greatest System Ever

[Violence Fight]

Man, I want to play Project Justice again. I hope it comes out on some console sometime in the future.


Man, I got that game put up. My DC broke and i have no way to play it. But jeez was it friggin' good. One of Capcoms better attempts at the 3d/2d fighter genre(And Wild Daigo PWNS)

[SaiST]

http://home.comcast.net/~soldiablue/stillcool.jpg

[Neon]

WTF :blink Lol , i never figured ewoks as the gaming type

[nigggs]

its the michael jordan of the gaming industry. Greatest system to have graced my home.

[Hagane no Renkinjutsushi]

My parents wouldn't buy me one.. but my friend used to have one and I'd got to his house almost everyday and also bring my super nintendo and play those super old really fun nintendo games.

[Raw64life]

Affirmative. The amount of good games they were able to crank out in 2 years was ridiculous.

[lmxru]

Had very nice games, very nice system, exceptional graphics for its time. I sold mine as soon as i heard it was 'going outta business'

[Zohar]

You gotta love the Dreamcast, one of the best games ever was produced for it; Shenmue!

Still hoping for a third game, but it doesn't look to good. :(

[dbcomix]

i love shenmue! dreamcast has better graphics than some playstation 2 games.....T-T

[shinjuu]

oh yeah Dreamcast was very cool! It had alot of good games, MSR, UFC, SC, Grandia, GGX(and more fighting games) Shenmue, Sonic, Deadly skies, JSR(god that game was good) and alot more! I'm really glad i bought it

[P-Nut]

2weeks after they released the DC in holland they stopped releasing new games
:(

[dbcomix]

2weeks after they released the DC in holland they stopped releasing new games

damn that suck!... i need a back plug for mine so i can play my games....burnt games..kukukukuku:shifty

[Ssj3_Goku]

Man shenmue was great.. dont know why they dont start it up again.. shadow the heghog now? give me a break bring me shunmue 3! ( not on x box either. < i dont have one :P) Should be multi platform or something.

But Sega Dreamcast had a much better online deal than Sony did i thought so anyways. Dreamcast was more powerful than the PS2 ( which is funny) , plus they had good support . Games where easy to make on it etc. Danm im going to miss that system :(

[Akukairu]

hahaha it is real loud, i never got one but i always wanted to, still kinda do seeing as project justice was on it ...

[Ssj3_Goku]

^ yea it was loud.. god my in trouble when staying up late on school nights back in the day playing grandia 2..

[¤Naruto-Kun¤]

MAN ! I loved dreamcast!
Jet Radio, PowerStone, Sonic (ALL OF THEM)...ALL GREAT GAMES..and all for free..
i think im going to my local pawn shop...see if i can some

[Inuyashamish]

i had a dreamcast and like 15 games, but it broke so i sold it for 100 bucks with everything i had with it. it had some great games like the 2 sonic adventures and the 2 powerstones.

[shinjuu]

^ yea it was loud.. god my in trouble when staying up late on school nights back in the day playing grandia 2..

ha i always put a pillow on it so it wouldnt make much noise and shine any light from the power button when playing at late nights :D, while playing grandia 2(yeah that game was the shit :D')


In fact i was just playing on my DC 15 minutes ago (playing GGX)

[Toltio]

Dream Cast was good, really sucked for them when it went down.. And for us.. Stupid people who used Illegal games..

[dbcomix]

i jack full of illegal games...muhahahahahaha!!!!1

[Shinobu]

I bought the dreamcast a couple months before they stopped making them.Last game I palyed on it was Sonic adventure 2 game.They should make another console, damn sega.

[dbcomix]

i know right...they'd be waaay bigger than playstation 2..hell the have goos ass graphics before their time.=/

[Ssj3_Goku]

I wished there was a true PSO game like how the old ones where instead of the online stuff thats what i really would have loved to see on the dreamcast.

[MrZombie]

Man, dreamcast was so great. Shenmue 1 and 2 (I imported the british version. Wooo! Subtitled games rock!), Skies of Arcadia, Powerstone 1 and 2, Street Fighter Alpha 3, Street Fighter 3: 3rd Strike, Grandia 2, Soul Caliber, Sonic Adventure 1 and 2, Resident Evil Code Veronica, Phantasy Star Online. Too many great games!

[yo_yo_man 23]

yea, that would have been sweet :smile-big

[Aznpinoy]

i have a dreamcast, I play it sometimes , good times, great games like Phantasy Star Online, Jet Grind Radio, Soul Calibur, Dead or Alive II, Shenmue, Sonic etc. Sigh, I wish it had faired better.

[¤Naruto-Kun¤]

I swear to god! powerstone + sonic where one of the best games ever made for Dreamcast...I STILL CANT FIND A DAMN DC T.T

[Ssj3_Goku]

I wish i lived in japan they still make dreamcast games over there. plus they have a huge hentai game section :)

[¤Naruto-Kun¤]

THEY STILL MAKE DREAMCAST GAMES? ...
didnt sega go bankrupt?

[MrZombie]

THEY STILL MAKE DREAMCAST GAMES? ...
didnt sega go bankrupt?

No, SEGA didn't go bankrupt, they just quit making consoles and just focused on games.

Oh yeah, I forgot Illbleed in my list of favoriet Dreamcast games. It was just to funny and quirky not to love.

[scazza]

Goku, get urself on some newsgroups, i got 100s of Dreamcast games, and all u need is a boot disk, most of them are jap imports too..

Illbleed rocked... so did Alien Front Online...

[PrimaryRenge]

I thought about getting a dreamcast but im so glad i didnt it died in like a month.

[konohasno1]

i thought dreamcast was good, but not great!

[Ssj3_Goku]

I thought about getting a dreamcast but im so glad i didnt it died in like a month.

NO it died in about a year and a half. And i can tell you that it had a shitload of kick ass games that you would play for 60 + hours. Here is just a few , Shenmue, Soul Calibur, Grandia 2, Skies Of arcadia, BAngio , and more. Plus Dreamcast had a kick ass launch of games better than any current console out now.

SO TRUE...Dreamcast did have a massive load of kickass games...and i agree that Dreamcast by far has had the best launch titles ever compared to any other console...Dreamcast was just simply awesome while it lasted

[*ZOE*]

I love my DC! its one of my fav consoles i loved like alomost all of the games. i was so upset when it didnt really do that well and sega just kinda slowly disapered kinda sad really

[Kaleidovision]

Oh yea, I love my DC, by the time I actually got around to buying one, they sold them for like 90 euros with 6 games included.

crap games indeed, but the ones I bought afterwards still keep me entertained, Shenmue I & II, Grandia 2, Virtua Tennis, SC.... oh man.. it's a real pity games are so hard to find nowadays. oh well... I'll never sell mine :cool

[nigggs]

Greatest system of all time. Nuff said.

[Cueil]

I think I had 50 games for it at one time... it took 3 years to die... 98-01

[Balance]

Dreamcast rocked.

Probably the most innovative console I've seen in my lifetime. It also had a very vibrant and energetic library of games.

Great times with good ol' DC. I still have mine back at home, but don't have too many games for it anymore...

[yo_yo_man 23]

yea, i've looked around and its getting harder and harder to find the old dc games that i didnt buy, and does anyone know if they are still making new dc games in japan? ('cause i've heard people talking about this)

[Duy Nguyen]

Dreamcast was a great system.
The only time I ever use the DC today is to run MvC2 on it for my tournaments, because PS2 MvC2 sucks.

[Chemistry]

Well? Do ya?

Well if you do, you're in great luck.

http://www.mininova.org/sub/4

Think of any damn game you loved for the DC. Download it. Burn it. Have fun!

So far, i've got SFIII, MvC2, Crazy Taxi, DoA2, Soul Calibur(Out of the ring!), Mark of the Wolves, and i'm currently downloading Ikaruga and Chu Chu rocket.

This is probably old news for people who've done this before, but I just found out how damn easy it is now. It's AWSOME. So get your Dreamcasts from the garage and start playing those great games!

[Kira Yamato]

Well then breath life into it.
*merges*

Favorite DreamCast games were
SFthird strike
SF double impact
Mark of the wolves
Giga wing 2 (the japanese version) REFLECTOOO REEEZZZAAAAAA :laugh
Mars Matrix
Grandia 2...oh man too many great games, I'll stop now.

[pajamas]

I have one =D

[Chemistry]

Omg. I got Ikaruga working on my DC.

I am in love.

[Ulquiorra]

:wtf

I'd feel dirty if I didn't have my trusty DC!
Soul Calibur, Phantasy Star Online (I need a Codebreaker :cry), POWER STONE, POWER STONE 2(Best fighting games EVER) Sonic Adventure, Sonic Adventure 2

Dreamcast=Love

[Aecen]

Powerstone, omfg please make another. I cant tell you how addicted I was to that game, it had everything you could ever want in a fighting game.

and PSO was good for dreamcast, offcourse it was filled with dupers (hell I was one, had almost every weapon in game), they really didnt care what you did cheating wise...

[Kduff]

Yeah, I had and still have my Dreamcast. Mine's pretty knew, because I bought one of the replacement plans with it, and it broke a couple months before it expired, so I got a brand new one. The new one's barely been played, seeing as I had other systems to play with by the time I got it replaced. I loved The House of the Dead 2, with the light-gun, and I still play that game to this day. Sonic Adventure was awesome, as was Soul Calibur. So many good memories. :)

[Chemistry]

Omg... I swear why didn't I find out about this earlier?! I'm now downloading Skies of Arcadia! I can't flippin' wait!!!

[Nan Desu Ka]

one word: Shenmue

[BladeofTheChad]

I need to rebuy one...

[Sieg]

I was going to buy a cheap one plus a load of games a while ago, but decided to save for the new systems.

[AdreneLyne]

Yes!!! DREAMCAST PWNS.

It was my first system, ;_; well besides NES, SNES, Sega Genisis, you get the point.

I really loved the games metioned above, Sonic Adventure 2, Power Stone 2, Phantasy Star Online (Omg yes! I wish they didn't cancel the free online for it, before I got to play it at my own house :()

I will always love the Dreamcast.

[Kaleidovision]

Yep got one, only thing is i'm still looking for an extra controller... bloody hard to find (without having to ship them overseas)

Great console, hilarious games and addictive as hell... so underrated by many :(

[Champloon]

DC was way ahead of its time
but sadly never made it in our market :cry
I still go back to my DC and play Shenmue, PSO, Marvel vs Capcom 2, Powerstone, and Soul Calibur
Those were the days...

[debil]

I still got one...i can remember going online with my DC the first time :D Damn it was great, espeacially Phantasy Star Onlnine!

[Kduff]

I've always found it funny to blame Sony PS2 fans who talk about liking Dreamcast for the ultimate downfall of it. So many of my friends in 6th grade (I think that was when the Dreamcast was coming out) didn't buy one because "they were waiting for the L33T PS2 that is HAXXORZ" or whatever. And because of you people, Dreamcast died way before it really should. You people get my wag of the finger today. :mad

There was a thing on G4 about the DC, "Icons" I think, talking about how so many people waited for PS2, and that was why DC died so quickly. Oh, and it was also because the PS2 had the DVD drive, and it really caught on in Japan because of DVD, and also many people here bought it for the DVD drive.

[Knight of Fate]

I had one...like 2 years ago and i gave it to my friend.

Exactly what PS3 will do for Blu-Ray...

[ZE]

I’m a sega fan boy, and of course I have a deamcast, for me is the best console ever, even better than psone and mega drive. Nothing can take my dreamcast from me.

[Nice Gai]

Sega Dreamcast was awesome. Sonic Adventure 1 was awesome. Dead or Alive 2 was so hardcore played it for course. Man but most of time was dialing in to play Phantasy Star Online all the time.

[Chemistry]

If you go to school, ask your friends if they still have their Dreamcast. Oddly enough, plenty of people did at my school, and my friend's going to give me his controllers ^__^

[BladeofTheChad]

only one of my friends has a DC and he wants to keep it...also EBAY FOOLS!
