After realising that I don't want a GameCube, and won't have the money for an X-Box, I would really like a Dreamcast to add to my PS2 and GBA. This is because it has some class games, and some more to come out (Virtua Tennis 2!!)

So far the cheapest I've found is on SR, but I don't have £99.99. Is SR selling the consoles on their own at all??

Anyone know places for a cheap DC??

Well some internet sites probably do some good deals but better not mention them here.

Failing that a local games trade center place where you can no doubt pick up a rather nice 1st or 2nd hand one :D

Well its a long shot but my mate is selling a DC with 8 games, 2 pads, memory pack and a dreamspace thing for about £130, however you will have to be able to get into sheffield or even better Barnsley.

Good call Ant.

The DCs on SR are £79.99, and that's with Sonic, which is a laugh.

You've got to get Skies of Arcadia though.

Humm, sounds good. Sonic Adventure looked good as well.

Maybe, I've never been into RPG's though, but I'm sure I can trust you Grix. {:)

Blimey!

Has Ant had a bump on the head? He actually has some sense now!

:-P


Seriously mate, good call. There are some fantastic games about for the DC, and all really cheap as well because the shops want to get rid of their stock....

Skies of Arcadia was basically the first real RPG I've played properly Ant... I was in the same position you are in now. Game recommended it to me, I bought it, and it's still sitting right at the top of my favourite games list.

I recently got a DC too. I sold my beloved Sega Saturn and bought one with the cash (I kept Panzer Dragoon Saga though!).

It was 70 quid with 2 games. Get one they're class!

Iv'e got a hardly ever used Dreamcast, probably collecting dust somewere.

I'm really intersted in RPG's so I may get that Skies of Arcadia but I also want the Resident Evil game too.

I have had a DC for 10 months now and I got it for £70 second hand. Look in the papers if you want cheap stuff.
