Arcade games have always proved to be better than the normal console games because they are always released in advance. Sega are always doing this for example

HOUSE OF THE DEAD 2
SAMBA DE AMIGO

These are always good fun to play in the arcade because of the guns and maracas included.

The question though is the dreamcast version as good and playable?

I believe that they are not as fun even though they have better modes. It just does not seem to be as good. They are also not enough replay value.

I think that the atmosphere is also better in the arcades aswell. The best arcade producers in my opinion is namco and capcom.

TIME CRISIS 2
MARVEL VS CAMPCOM

They rule. Especially time crisis 2 ( I have completed cost me £8) I still think they will never be as fun. I must just love the atmosphere in the arcades.

The conversions never seem to be as good in my opinion. With the exeption of time crisis on playstation.

WHAT DO YU GUYS THINK???????????????????

you will never be able to get the atmosphere of the arcades, but buying the game is cheaper in the long run

Get a Sony Vega 92" Wall Screen.
Get your mates round.
Every time someone plays, they put a £1 in your moneybox.
Turn your stereo up full blast.

Now you have an arcade.
