It's quite annoying that Dreamcast didn't sell well. I know you'll all just say the Dreamcast is crap and I'm dumb, but when you think about it, it had some brilliant new titles. I know how annoying it is when people do lists, so i'll keep short:
Shenmue-i only saw one review. Official dreamcast mag. 10/10
I bought it, i loved it. Absolutely brilliant. Also, it's meant to be one of 3 titles closest to becoming 'the ultimate game;
Soul Calibur-94%(Dreamcast Magazine) 10/10 (ODM)haven't found anyone who doens't think this is the greatest fighting gaem ever-stunning graphics and great balance
Phantasy Star Online- 9/10 (ODM) apparently the guy who reviewed it is 'kicking myself for not giving it 10/10) I haven't actually played this.
Metropolis Street Racer-10/10 (Dreamcast Magazine) 9/10 (ODM) Absolutely stunning.
I'm probably completely boring you but hey-it's worth discussing. I really do think Dreamcast was, and kinda still is better than PS2

Yes its sad but true that the Dreamcast is gone, it did deserve better. Having played the Dreamcast, PS2, Xbox and GameCube I can honestly say that the Dreamcast had a decent selection of games available for it at launch eg Soul Caliber, has graced us with innovative titles such as Crazy Taxi. Was internet ready, had four ports. Its only problem was that its pad wasnt the best (but compared to the Xbox pad its miles better).

Its sad as the big boys Microsoft and Sony have such a big advantage due to their Money and Marketing power!

The Dreamcast is a great console, and may not be as powerful as the new boys but show me a game that proves it!
