Dreaming of the Dreamcast: 10 Dreamcast games I want to see make the gen jump.
June 15th, 2010 |Posted In: Gaming
I love the Dreamcast. In fact, as consoles go the Dreamcast will always have a very special place in my heart, not as my first console, because it wasn’t, but rather as the console that irreversibly changed how I thought about games. It was on this system that I first experienced the MMO environment with a little game called Phantasy Star Online. Suddenly games became this amazingly social experience where my friends and I could gather, make incredibly obscene ascii art, and just generally have a blast.
It is with this in mind that you can understand the unbridled excitement with which I read the news that Sega had finally decided to grant my wish and would begin to bring Dreamcast games to current generation platforms. The announcement came along with two titles: Sonic Adventures and Crazy Taxi. Now these are two great games that are a perfectly logical starting point for Sega. But as a Dreamcast fanboy, it is hard to not immediately begin construction of your own list of games you want to see ported. So without further stalling for time, I present to you my dreamy dreamcast port list.

OnLive, the video game industry revolutionizer promising to save you from those big expensive consoles, has released some details about their upcomming release. The platform is expected to go live in June and set you back $15 a month plus whatever rental fees you rack up.
That’s about the point where I decided the value proposal was the real vaporware in the equation and did a little maff. With both Sony and Microsoft anticipating lengthy, in the neighborhood of eight year, life cycles, I was curious just many bananas would be tallied by OnLive over that time frame. Turns out it’s around $1440 dollars for just the monthly premium. So much for the bargain.
Full puffery loaded release here.
