It's funny how Shenmue 2 is on a dying system and is being considered game of the year. Many people will say well how can that be? The truth is that the game is just as good or maybe better than most PS2 games and I think that it's great. Dreamcast's final call and they do it in style.

Yeah, Sega had some awsome games but that didn't help them out. I thought that the first Shenmue would add som elife to the Dreamcat but it didn't help it that much. Actually, the only system that could really keep up with the competition was the Genesis and that's been ages ago.

Well, many great games have been on "dead" consoles...

NiGHTS! on the Saturn is my fave game ever... it introduced the analogue pad into standard console gaming well before the N64 came out :):):)



I find it amazing that the DC, with a complete library of original and classic games just died on us... just goes to show that games are NOT enough to sell a system... advertising, coolness and many other factors come into play...

Ninty take note!
