Forums - Microsoft - Dreamcast Games Finally Coming to XBL!?!

Mythe on 02 June 2010

Omg crazy taxi! I wanted to play that a few days ago. It's such a good game.



Playstation All-Stars is one of the best games I've played this gen, and is the most fun I've had in a game this gen.

Reason why analogy makes no sense is because Sports teams/players have salary caps. Fair competition is almost impossible when one team (Sega) couldn't afford to lose 800 million dollars (thats all they lost while in hardware business) while Sony can lose 4 billion with PS3 and Microsoft can lose 9 billion with Xbox 1 and both can still keep smiling.

Besides DC is a little engine that couldn't which in 2 years they acumilated more 90 rated games accodring to Metacritic than Wii did so far. Not to mention that the Metacritics database is missing half of the games like Sonic Adventure, Powerstone and Resident Evil Code Veronica.

So I don't know what the hell you are talking about with no quality games... Maybe try games that don't appeal to you.

 


Ok so after looking on metacritc, i will admit that the dreamcast did have more quality games than I had originally thought. 

I can admit when i am wrong, which i am wrong.

So the dreamcast had like 20 good games! (i am being sarcastic) lol

Dreamcast lacking good games? I can't think of any system that got as many amazing games as dreamcast in the 2 years it was on the market. PS2 took a year to get a single game worth playing...

Also Powerstone wasn't published by Sega so it can only be on Capcom collections.


but look at each console in its entirety, that is the perspective that i am looking at it from. I will admit that it had some great games, not just that many. 

Darn, thats my favorite game on the dreamcast! 

You can't judge a consoles library and compare it to a console thats been out for 10 years.

All I know is that I got the DC in late 1999. I was bombarded with games to play. Literally...every week there was a new awesome game to rent or buy. And they were really diverse, original as well...

And this lasted all the way till the end. In late 2001 when the party was over I got to play Rez, Ikaruga, Shenmue 2, Headhunter and Guilty Gear X. All 5 games kicked ass...

I've yet to meet a dreamcast owner that owned one back then that is saying they didn't have a great time with the system.

agreed.

some of last gen's best games were dreamcast games.

You don't need Crazy Taxi 1 & 2, so swap 1 with Daytona.

Meh the world of Taxi 1 was better. Taxi 2 was awesome, but the layouts were just less thoughout IMO. With the size of most DC games especially with modern compression I don't see why not both. Oh and yes Daytona too please!

Personally I would rather have a Dreamcast compilation and a Saturn compilation like Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection, but thats just me.

Just a general question? Dreamcast is grouped in the same category as the ps2, gamcube, and xbox, correct?

Agree with you completely.  I bought my DC day one and never once did I regret it.

Hell, I still turn it on from time to time and replay Grandia 2 and Skies of Arcadia.

Getting DC games in any way/shape/form is awesome.
