I bought a Dreamcast on my hols. I got:

Skies of Arcadia
Shenmue
Shenmue 2
Sonic Adventure

So what other games should I buy?

I was thinking of getting Sonic Adventure 2 if I can find it, and possibley Nomad Soul and Jet Set Radio.

btw I have started Skies of Arcadia and it seems realy good so far....

The Crazy Taxi games could've been better, but to be honest I'm not bothered. They're great for quick 10 minute plays before you need to catch a bus or catch your dinner. In all honesty, if they were "improved" upon and whatever then I don't think they'd have played in "true" Crazy Taxi fashion.

Oh I don't like Crazy Taxi, I must hate all arcade games. Whats your problem? Maybe it's just that I think Crazy Taxi is a rubbish game? It wasn't worth porting to consoles, I mean, two cities, which aren't even that big? The same Taxi rides over and over and over, they could have at least made people want to go to random destinations. And what happened to the 'Crazy' stuff anyway? I was expcting to be able to get on to the roof tops and fly over the street below, never happened though. The craziest thing you could do was drive fast into somebody else, or underwater, which was exactly the same as driving on land.

When it comes down to it, SEGA couldn't be a*sed to put any effort into it as a console game.

In Dixons and Currys and the like, they sell DC games for around 98p.
Alternatively you could buy from our good friends at SR.

Firstly, good choice. Secondly, get MSR, Jet Set Radio and...oh, you may as well get Crazy Taxi anyway, you could probably find it for £5 now anyway, and it's well worth getting at that price.

Don't listen to the non-arcade loving heathens, they only like games that you can get to the end of, rather than replay a zillion times.
