I love my "new" Dreamcast

Jonbo298 · 02-28-2004, 07:14 PM

I finally got my DC in the mail off ebay and I'm pretty glad I waited until now to get it. I paid like $15 or so and was supposed to get the console, 1 controller, a stupid fishing game, and av cables/power cord. But when it came today, it had 2 controllers, 2 mem cards/jump packs, and 3 games. (the other 2 are NHL2k and NHL2k2 which I wont play much). So I'm soo happy with it. And I also bought Vigilante 8 2nd Offense and Berserk: Guts Rage. Great games.
And now I just got an iso of Rush 2049 off a torrent and it booted and worked fine on the DC. So I'm gonna be burning like a madman

But anywho. Just thought I'd share the excellent adventure I'm having so far with my "new" DC. Any games you'd recommend I buy that I'm not thinking of (just blurt a few out)

*awaits '64 coming in the mail*

*edit*
and also, I've noticed that the DC has become a haven for homebrews but im not really 100% sure on what sites could be doing stuff with the DC that I can use/mess with or something.

...exactly what he said....

I've been thinking about going to EB's one of these days and seeing what Shenmue is going for right now since I rented it a long time back and played a little bit on a friends DC but never really got too far into the game.

Get Sonic Adventure and Ecco the Dolphin.

The Germanator · 02-28-2004, 07:57 PM

I'd get Jet Set Radio, maybe Crazy Taxi (probably cheap), Virtua Tennis, Shenmue II (british import, if you can find one.

)

Edit: I just remembered how lucky I was to get the Shenmue II...my EB had two imported and I was the first to reserve one, great game too.

Jonbo298 · 02-28-2004, 07:58 PM

Didn't really get into Jet Set. Right now I'm unpacking (slow as all get up) an iso with 5 dc games that has CT 1&2 on it. A good tennis game wouldn't hurt. And maybe ebay for Shenmue2

Seaman did rule, I'm sure he is talking about Sega Bass Fishing, Sega Bass Fishing 2, Reel Fishing Wild, or Sega Marine Fishing.

Jonbo298 · 02-29-2004, 12:40 AM

Its Sega Marine Fishing. I want to get Seaman. I heard the game was cool but I never played it.

I need to get my hand on a Sega Saturn. It had Dragon Force! That game rocks my socks!

Instead of making a double post, I'll just make a reply here.

I ordered Seaman with mic for $1 on eBay (real deal). shipping was $7 but meh, I just want to play with Seaman and make the man go all crazy on me.

Sweet. I've had my fun with Albert Odyssey.

Grandia 2 is a DAMN good game from what I can remember. Might seem a little dated by todays standards, but if you can pick it up super cheap who cares? I also spent a lot of time with Crazy Taxi. Incredible, considereing there's really no goal to beat in the game. Ack...I know theres some awsome DC game I used to play that was awsome...I just cant remember...maybe its about time to go fish through my old DC games.
