"OK, I admit it!!"

As a PSX and DC fan, you'd never hear me praising N64 or Nintendo products. However, there are some games that aren't available on my systems that I'd really like to play sometime e.g.,

Perfect Dark
Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask
Golden Eye

Golden Eye was hailed as the 'best game ever' by the gaming press, LOZ:MM comes highly recommended by most of the Nintendo gamers I know, and Perfect Dark's action appeals to me.

So, "What is you most wanted game from a 'rival' console?"

You put the console on the shelf too?

Wasn't Shelflife the sequel to Halflife? Or was that Parklife?

Me, I'm happy with my DC at the moment. I've got quite a few games that I'm playing through and the fun never seems to stop. I don't know why, but the Dreamcast just stood out as my favorite console. Obviously, something else will come along sooner or later, and I'm not adverse to getting my hands on a nice PS2 as well.....just as soon as I can convince the wife to let me part with £299!

Good games both of them. RE2 is coming to the DC soon.

How do you play games that are still on a shelf?

Oh and "Dead or Alive 2" on either the Dreamcast or PS2!

Ild really like to get a Dreamcast so I could play the following games

Shenmue
Resident Evil: Code Veronica
Soul Caliber
House of the Dead 2
Quake III
Phantasy Star Online

Ild like to get a PS2 to play

Tekken Tag Tournament
SSX


But thats not going to happen unless I win the lottery or the Dreamcast drops in price to £30 or something stupid!

Good games both of them. RE2 is coming to the DC soon.

well... hate to spoil things but RE CV is out, RE2 is out and RE 3 is out all on DC.

I'd say that the only game I would have liked to have played would be GT3, but then it isn't out yet so I don't care. Also, Pokemon intrigued me a tad!

I think Shenmue is absolutely fantastic, I've been sparring all afternoon (the ingame afternoon) with Fukusan, and I managed to throw him a few times! There is NOTHING that can compare with this 'game'. In my view at least. It's just a really great thing that more people have been getting Dreamcast now that it's cheaper (it isn't dead!!! Just not in production no more), as they will all be getting Shenmue!

I am confident that PSO will be another PS2 owner 'most wanted', but sorry guys - you picked the wrong format!

Anywho, the PS2 will have a great racing game in GT3, but as FM rightly states, MSR is superb.

Why am I up at this hour? Shenmue!!

Just about any game on the Dreamcast... and Metal Gear Solid.

I like the look of a lot of PS2 games but I'm sure most of them will be released for the Gamecube too.

As for the DC. I'll be buying one soon. It's cheap now it's dead and the games are still great!

My verdict : a bargin!

Depends, Vai, if you like RPGs I'd stay clear because Shenmue doesn't have any of the classic D&D RPG features (hitpoints, armour classes and so on), more of a walk/run about chatting to people and then beating other people up.

The only resemblance to an RPG is the exploration that takes place.

This is more of a detective beat 'em up.

If you want to see the best graphics ever produced for a DC, though, then get it for sure, it looks great. I prefer Metropolis Street Racer for playability though.

Ok i hate to admit it but it has got to be Shenmue from the DC, AND Shenmue 2 for the DC,

I'm looking forward to seeing the RPG Nintendo and Sega are working together on!
