I'm just messing with y'all. The DC was cool and these GD replacement projects make the console immensely more convenient.*

I remember when you did this with the x68k....eventually you'll be on some dreamcast.

If you want to rag on sega consoles, bitch about the 32x, segaCD, or the Saturn's US library. The DC really was a solid system with a good library of fun games and arcade ports.

Then I could get the system and 10 games in a bundle for $129 on clearance come 2016 when the fucker tanks...

Haha. A man after my own heart.

I would buy a new set top box from Sega if it played DC over HDMI. Retron DC!
Or a 3rd party emu box that was full of DC. I would still buy that. I bet that would make a mint.

To think that Neo Alec was banned to gatherings over the DC.

It's like we are telepathically linked.

Broken, It's ok. We know you've been hurt by them, but I want you to take your time, and show us, Where did the Bad Polygonz touch you?

I really wanna get my hands on a DC again, so many classics, but mostly because I wanna play Cannon Spike and Illbleed which I found out about recently. anyone know if Illbleed is as good as HVGN say?

I don't know. We might be.

I'm specifically attacking the use of the word solid. It's a terrible way to express praise. See post #21.

To me the Dreamcast is an instance where a company's' resistance toward adapting to the times didn't equate to a cooler product. Sometimes what's bad for business can be great for a niche fan, but subjectively the Dreamcast's library doesn't satisfy my criteria.

It's ok.

Illbleed is excellent. Great survival horror AND a hilarious sense of humor. My wife in I played through it together more than once, and she doesn't typically do that.

Fantastic game.

Qube, my man! I've missed you so much...but this has to go...


Tapatalk? Why?

I like it, it's got me browsing the forums again.

Edit: I see, you can turn that off.

lead me to this...




Maybe things on that Dreamcast video are known to most aficionados, but... Dreamcast novices (like myself) might learn a thing or two.

The Dreamcast will always be my no. 1 favorite system with the Saturn being 2nd.
