Gaming Remembering the Sega Dreamcast

I'm disappointed that nobody has mentioned the best scrolling shooter of all time, Ikaruga. The DC was its first console release. It's a game so good that Blizzard based a WoW boss on it.

Of course, the humor of this is that if it wasn't for the DC's rampant piracy, I probably never would have even played the japan only release

 

definetly one of the MOST underrated consoles out there.. it was so epic, and screen on controller? insane, i dont think a have seen that way back when, even know actually. dreamcast was a amazing console... i say they should bring one back!!!!!

RIP DREAMCAST!

and ps. crazy taxi Cheesecake!

 

Last time I played on a Dreamcast was I think my 27th birthday, couple of years back (honest). We invented a drinking game to accompany Sega Marine Fishing. A great start to a night and it's a lasting testament to the success of the drinking game that I can't for the life of me remember which birthday it was. Those old Dreamcast fishing games were great fun.

Tim have you still got MY dreamcast??

 

He did. But we took it to pieces for a photoshoot.

 

Tell a lie: turns out that was Bindi's Dreamcast. Phew!

 

Well that still begs the question what happened to mine!
Maybe Timmy is (still) indulging in secret all night Dayyyy-toonn-aaaaaa binges..

 

I still love my dreamcast. One game that was definitly forgotten is "Headhunter"! This is still my all-time favorite game. The soundtrack is still the best game soundtrack ever written. At the moment I'm playing shenmue again with my kids. It's really fun!

 

Great article. Makes me want to travel back in time!
