Well, if you take my word for it it's official. I've got both consoles, and was staring at my game collection earlier today and thinking about what I wanted to play. In the end I went for Skies of Arcadia on the DC, then realised I still had Phantasy Star Online gathering dust in my drawer, not to mention Dragon's Blood and Speed Devils and Stunt GP and Worms Armageddon and TR: Revelation all lined up and ready to go. There's another 50 or so games there for my DC, and looking at my 15 PS2 titles there's only one or two (like MGS2 and Baldur's Gate) that I fancied picking up and playing.

So today: the Dreamcast has it.

Tomorrow I might be posting a similar thread in the XBox forum as I quite fancy finishing off Halo.

Having just bought a XBOX, I've packed my Dreamcast away, but I'm already looking forward to getting it out and replaying some classics. I think I'll try and leave it as long as possible and then one day have a Dreamcast indulgence session.

I agree fm in my last flat my frind had a ps2 with quite a few games but we only really played thps3 and mgs2, but almost everynight we would just play worms world party or v.tennis.
I too have just brought an xbox and Halo is such a great game fully deserves the 10/10 edge gave it, espeacially in two player co-op missions, but saying that thats the only game I have at the moment so I still play my dc games like power stone 2 and am just starting playing headhunter again, does anyone have headhunter for the ps2 if so whats different?, if anything?

I traded my DC and 20+ games for an Xbox, and I don't reget getting an Xbox but I do regret getting rid of my DC.
But I do console myself by the fact that most of my favoutite DC/SEGA games will be getting updates on the Xbox - JSRF, the Shenmue series, Crazy Taxi 3, etc.

What a prat.

Exactly HOW is the PS2 worthy of even 'a decent console' tag, let alone best? The technical specifications are lame and inflated, and the games are about 500 rubbish - 1 decent.

HOW can you justify posting that here?
