Guys, I need some advice. I am getting a PS2 on November 24th, but today I realised that I had the money to buy a Dreamcast. I could get one with Code Veronica, Virtua Tennis, MSR and Sonic Adventure for 230 from GAME. Should I wait for the PS2 or buy both? I wasnt sure if to or not, Id like some opinions please. Cheers

Grix, youll have to go to the shop on that one- I did check the site, and they only have the console deal. If you want to know, the URLs are:

Electronics Boutique- eb.uk.com
Game- game.uk.com
Simplygames - Simplygames.com
theSlammer- theSlammer.com
software first- softwarefirst.com

These all do really good deals for games and have good auction sites(the botton two) where you may be able to pick up a cheap dreamcast. A PS2 went for 450 on theslammer.com a few weeks back!

Look for your reply!

To be honest with you, if I could then I would buy both. But due to financial obligations I must choose and I am going with the PS2.

If you can easily afford both, however, then I think it would be money well spent as there is bound be stuff coming out on both that you will want to play.

BUT if you buy both then will you have enough money to get an X-Box or a Gamecube at the end of next year. Decisions, Decisions.

The dreamcast is good and I think it's got potential but at the end of the day Playstation 2 is going to be amazing and will surely top the console chart.

I'm just waiting for the gamecube and the gameboy advance!

In answer to Damo, I'd be tempted to buy both consoles then wait to buy games later on. After all, it's not every day that you have enough money for a console, but saving up to buy games is easier and you can win them of course (as you have obviously found out!)

I certainly whole heartedly recommend the dreamcast and a copy of MSR, but then I'd like a PS2 as well and I may well get one (or at least my brother will and I'll end up playing on that all the time while he plays on my DC)

Wow! Thats a pretty damn good deal!

You get a Dreamcast, Chu Chu Rocket, and Sonic Adventure, which I want, for £145.99! That's on my Christmas list!

Damn. No games packs. Just the console on its own.

Ali! If you read this, can put some Dreamcast console packs up please! Like A Dreamcast and four games for £230 or something.

Please?

Or are there already? I checked a while back, but lets see.
