:whoa: fighting game wise it's the goat console, but that's where it stops.

You tripping Sega is responsible for NBa2k NFL2k Shenmue breh rhose three titles will be remembered for decades.

PlayStation released the DVD amd had GTA 3 which utimately killed the system. Dreamcast had long term plans for the console too.

I never owned a Dreamcast because we couldn't afford one at the time :mjcry:

But for me it was one of the greatest gaming experiences I ever had

Low key the only reason I ever went to my cousins house :shaq:

shenmue is a cult hit and 2k ain't become a big deal til 360 came out. madden and live was still running shyt.


im not shytting on the system, I'm just saying fighting games were the only thing that the system had on lock.

Im probably gonna get flamed.... But it needs to be said. The dreamcast was fukking horrible b.


Edit. Lmfaooo already got negged. So let me break this down so it doesn't seem like im just spitting nonsense.


Yall are really forgetting just how bad this system really was. First lets start with it's shelf life. It was only in stores for a little over a year. HOW IS ANY SYSTEM THAT WAS ONLY SOLD FOR LESS THEN 2 YEARS TOP ANYTHING??

I'm seeing nikkas in this thread saying DC was best system ever and all over my facebook im seeing people say its top 3 systems ever and all this other nonsense.


When you think of PS2. You think of Final Fantasy X,Shadow of the Colossus/MGS3 Snake Eater/GTA San Andreas/Kingdom Hearts/Devil Mary Cry/God Of War

When you think of PS1 you think of Final Fantasy 7/8 MGS/Crash/Twisted Metal/Megaman Legends/Castlevania: Symphony of the Night/Xenogears

When u think of N64 you think of Mario 64/Ocrania of time/Majora's Mask/Star Fox 64/No Mercy/Smash Bros/Mario Kart 64/Goldeneye 007/Diddy Kong Racing/Snowboard Kids/Perfect Dark


Now when think about Dreamcast you think(and take a look at what people are saying in this very thread) Crazy Taxi/Soul Caliber/House of the dead/Powerstone/Marvel vs Capcom 2/


One of these are clearly not like the other.

Yall are confusing dreamcast being amazing with your ability to no longer spend quaters in the Arcade anymore. You take away the arcade ports and your left with a very slim lineup of good games.

Now dont gt me wrong DC had some gems. Jet Set Radio/Shenmue/Phantasy Star Online/Skies Of Arcadia/. But none of that makes the dreamcast anything more then a system that was ahead of it's time.

All this "Dreamcast was goat" nonsense needs to stop. Dreamcast was really one of the worst consoles ever.


I wont even bring up the piracy issues...... Lmfao. :mjlol:

Had to quote myself to educate the sheep! :wow:
