"They" are talking about a section on here to download saved games.
Presumably we would invite people to send their saved games to us and then post them for download.
What sort of problems can we expect? Anybody into this elsewhere?

I would have thought it was the same thing. + a dex drive is a machine that can be plugged into your PC, you then stick your N64 or PS memory card into it and it transfers the saved info into a PC file, I don't know if it's sold over here but it's being sold in america, there are quite a few sites that advertise it.

SR should sell Dex Drives.
They should be one of the free gifts...

Tony are you aware of several sites at the moment that actually have 'Dreamcast Saved games' to download onto your VMU.
There is even some cases where you can actually download Mini Games to your DC VMU by accessing these sites.
Maybe you can start off with that Idea, so people with Dreamcast's can Access SR Pages and download 'Cheats, Saves, Mini-Games' to their DC Card's.
So what do you say?

Like on Gameshark.com they have good game saves too!
Some sort of files database would be nice - skins/levels made by users, and saved games as you said. Dex Drive is just something to let you transfer console game saves on to a pc and send them to people.
It sounds great for lazy people!

I don't know what that is. I'm talking about normal PC games positions. Saved into a databank for people to "cheat" with.
