How could you Sega?

First you give us a great console that is the Dreamcast, you then stop making it but promice to keep suporting it with software.

Then you go ahead and cancel on of the biggest games on your release list, Black and White. One great game which we were promiced to has now gone, never to be seen on our little box of Dreams:(

Us DC owners have had a rough time over the last few months because of Segas descisson making, am im not happy. I have great fears of even more big games on the horizon being dropped. Such as-Commandos 2
Shenmue 2
Headhunter
Crazy Taxi 2
Sonic Adventure 2
And mabye even Half Life which was SUPPOSED to have been released In November of last year.(!)

It seams like my worst fears are coming true, the Dreamcast is now turning into a Nightmare. Just look at theses games that have allready been canned in the last month-

Soul Reaver 2 (!)
Picassio
Fortris
Dronez
Roswell conspiracies
Armada 2
Dark Angel; vampire apocalpse

Bad news im sure you will all agree, for us gamers and the industry. Im just hoping that Sega get the cash from somewhere to put the effort into releasing all the games it has planned for the Dreamcasts future, and also to keep those all importaint servers up and running for its online games.

We all knew that games were going to be canned sooner or later for the DC but I, and im sure most of you didn't think it would be so soon. Perhaps by the time the x-box and GameCube are released, the DC will be a distant memory in the past. We were told the Dreamcast would be in the shops for around another year, but I fear it might not last that long and we could be seeing a premature death.

I myself wish Sega all the best over the next few years and I really hope they find their feet again. From now on I hope the decissons they make are the best for everyone, including us, the gamers.

Join me in saying...

Good Luck Sega!

I have never, ever hated Sega. I just thought that the Dreamcast was not as good as it could be when it was brought out.

Oh, and M16: I KNOW WHERE YOU LIVE!!!
