I have always been a Sega fan.  Through Genesis right up to this.  Let's just say that I am so very happy that I came along this.  Now, I see that there is a war of gaming systems and every one is confused on which one to buy:  PS2 or a Dreamcast.  I for one have played both:  A few weeks ago, my cousin had rented a PS2.  He called me about it, saying how great and grand it was, and I was curious in seeing it.  I got there and played it and was dissapointed.  There is nothing new.  You look at Madden 2001 and NFL2K1 and you can't even tell them apart.  PS2 launch titles were just dumb games trying to showcase how great PS2 is.  None of them made any sense.  So I turned and looked deeper into the Dreamcast.  I became more and more obsessed with it.  Games like Shenmue, Resident Evil: Code Veronica blow PS2 out of the water.  Just save your money and get a Dreamcast...that sort of sums it up.
