Sure Dreamcast has it's place and is now resting in the video Game Graveyard, but this system was good, very good. But the thing is people wouldn't trust Sega, after failing one too many times and being the underdog in the gaming world, so they had a feeling the DC would fail as well. But it's potential was great, it had many great titles such as Soul Caliber, Shenmue, Sonic Adventure & 2, Crazy Taxi, the list is endless, the grpahics are amazing. The system is very loud though, the engine makes alot of noise when loading the disc. They stopped making games for this system so if you are planning to buy it, buy all the games you can fast because they are being taken off the shelves of many stores. The sports line for the DC is fantastic bolstering some of the best sports games ever made, thanks to the 2k series. If your an RPG freak well they have great ones as well like, Skies of Arcadia, Grandia 2,Record of Loddoss War, just so many no matter what you are a fan of. Don't let all the bad comments get into your head, because if you think it's bad, you are going to belive that it's bad. Remember you need a VMU for the DC for the best playing experience, or you won't be able to save games, most game take up 10 or less blocks unless it's a sports game which takes up a huge ammount of space, like 150 blocks! An extra controller would be a good idea as well. This is a great console that just wasn't given a chance. Enjoy!
