I read and stay in touch with the SEGA retro community daily. But you just want to argue. MS had nothing to do with SEGA's exit. It was bad management from SEGA of Japan. 32X from SEGA of America. Saturn's financial misfortunes. Tho it sold well in Japan. SEGA was done before Dreamcast even launched. They were so far in the red SEGA was ready to close its doors. Isao Okawa donated his entire fortune on his deathbed of 694 million dollars to keep SEGA afloat. Had Sony and MS not had the wallet they did from other business you better believe Sony would have considered bowing out in 2008 when they were losing millions on PS3. Xbox lost 1 billion on the original Xbox. Losing that much they might have been another NEC. The quality of games is not why SEGA went out. Bad business decisions and two sides of the same company never getting along. SEGA of Japan and SEGA of America.

Why else do you think you heard the story of 2 consoles in development and one using 3DFX GPU? That was the SOA proposed hardware for what would be the Dreamcast. Did you ever read about the talks of SEGA and Sony in talks for Sony to make Saturn hardware?  Did you stay in touch with NAOMI and Atmoswave? Or that VF4 for PS2 is a NAOMI II game? SEGA was founded as Service Games in World War II in the West? Sonic's first appearance in a game as needlemouse? The Saturn Pluto? You ever see a SEGA Megajet? How Adventure Island series exist because of SEGA and Wonderboy license?

Wow, Leynos, you need a vacation dude, seriously.

That's all you got for your ignorance? Just some lame attempt at an insult about my personal life just because I'm more informed than you? Your bait ends here. Blocked.

Go ahead and block me. Did I insult you that much? Hell, I'm tired. Gotta cook dinner and get to bed. Hell, I work for a living. Is that a bad thing?

Skies of Arcadia was my favourite game of the generation, and the Dreamcast version of it was my most played game of that generation. I cast my vote for Dreamcast.

Dreamcast.

Xbox - I can think of more than Sonic in terms of game library.

Xbox.

Sega is the most grossly overrated company in gaming. Sega was a one hit wonder with the genesis.

Nhaa, I think Xbox was the better system, more power, better controller and better online capabilities. 

But when it comes to the games i vastly prefer what Dreamcast have to offer. 

Then Xbox is a one-hit wonder with 360 and was in 3rd place. SEGA invented the 3D fighting game genre. Without it, Tekken doesn't exist. Seiichi Ishii worked on VF1 then went to Namco to direct Tekken 1-2. Panzer Dragoon. A genre that many games copied. It's the same with Space Harrier. Even Nintendo copied Space Harrier publishing Sin n Punishment. (tho the Wii game is best in the genre) Gears 2 has a Panzer Dragoon section. As did Darksiders. Clones. REZ. Edge of Skyhigh. EX Zeus. Burning Force. 3D World Runner. Panarama Cotton and more. Crash exists because of Sonic as well. The entire inspiration for the game was "Sonics ass" as Ruben put it.   Xbox never invented a genre. Tho I give credit for popularizing the TPS and without Gears probably no VanQuish. SEGA had almost as many hardware innovations as Nintendo during that time. Just Nintendo was better at selling the idea and presenting an entire game/console around it as a general rule.

The only successful console was indeed Genesis/MD in the West but it wasn't a success in Japan. Saturn was. XBO sold 58 million. Great if it was the 90s. Poor of the modern era. XSX is barely above OG Xbox sales. It's weird how that works. OG Xbox is awesome no doubt. Tho Xbox is far more overrated. They bought their successful IPs aside from Flight Sim. and then drove them into the ground. Halo was in development for Apple Macs and a DC port was considered before MS bought Bungie.
