IceCold Posted July 22, 2002 Share Posted July 22, 2002 All the sports games are pretty good and the 2k ones can be picked up cheap at your local Best Buy. I heard Crazy Taxi is really good and I heard Test Drive Lemans has great graphics. Personally my favorite game for it is Gauntlet Legends. Well that's just about all I know, I hope it helps you somehow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacGurl Posted July 22, 2002 Share Posted July 22, 2002 Shenmue!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krisjohn Posted July 22, 2002 Share Posted July 22, 2002 Gauntlet Legends is good, but short. Crazy Taxi is great fun, avoid CT 2. Soul Calibur is probably the best 3D fighter of all time. Marvel vs Capcom is the best 2D fighter. Chu-Chu Rocket is a damn good party game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JagMX Posted July 22, 2002 Share Posted July 22, 2002 Crazy Taxi 1&2 Sonic Adventure 1&2 Marvel vs Capcom 1&2 Soul Calibur Bust-A-Move 4 NHL 2K2 Unreal Tournament Quake 3 NFL Blitz 2000 Shenmue Jet Set Radio Those are so cool ones youll have a good time with Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubersaurus Posted July 22, 2002 Share Posted July 22, 2002 Powerstone 2! and Bomberman Online is good too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigferret Posted July 22, 2002 Share Posted July 22, 2002 If you like fighters, definately get Soul Calibur (3D) and Garou, Mark of the Wolves (2D). Both are outstanding and the only reasons I still play our Dreamcast which we got when it was first released. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdstuff64 Posted July 22, 2002 Share Posted July 22, 2002 Well Jag listed just about all the great games.The great thing about DC is most of the games are good.Unlike PS1 where there are 500 crap games. LONG LIVE SEGA and the DC :wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forgot to mention a few more things 1- Sega GT 2- And All the emulators for it And i have to agree with the over 500 crap games for the playstation, ugh what a piece of garbage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Varan Posted July 22, 2002 Share Posted July 22, 2002 ReVolt This game is underrated. Better than the PS2 RC racers. Better than the PS1 version of ReVolt. I played it last night. It's fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oesii Posted July 22, 2002 Share Posted July 22, 2002 I just started playing this game last night but it looks and plays great: Rayman 2: The Great Escape reading through some reviews its almost identical to the playstation version if you've played that.

Soul Calibur is probably the best 3D fighter of all time. Marvel vs Capcom is the best 2D fighter. Chu-Chu Rocket is a damn good party game. I won CHu Chu Rocket. I got that game and a VMU memory card (brand new) for only $14.99!!!!! Good deal right. Maybe i should figure out how to play that game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunstar Posted July 22, 2002 Share Posted July 22, 2002 Revolt is good. but there are a lot that I have that I think are great that I haven't heard mention here yet; Racers: Test Drive Lemans Vanishing Point F1 World grand prix Tokyo Extreme Racing 2 Star Wars Episode I 4x4 EVO 4Wheel Thunder FPS: Soldier of Fortune Spec Ops: Omega Squad Hidden&Dangerous QuakeDC (shareware) Sports: NHL 2k1/2 NFL 2K1/2 World Series 2k1/2(?) Virtua Tennis Adventure: Dragon Riders: Chronicals of Pern (if your a fan of the books) Draconus: Cult of the Worm (fantastic!) Omikron: The Nomad Soul Rayman 2 Machines: Wild Metal Alien Front Online Gundam Side story Airforce Delta Toy Commander I only recently doubled my collection to a total of about 3 dozen though, out of about 250 US releases and hundreds of Japanese and Euro titles... BUT, I also sold off a lot that I got I didn't personally find too good: WWF Wrestling (this was a gift, I'd never buy a Wrestling game) Jet Set Radio (just didn't do it for me, also a gift) Dave Mirra BMX (this was alright, but I wanted something else, so I sold it) Hydro Thunder SuperCross 2000 (or something like that, ok, but not great) Flag to Flag racing (I have F1 now) Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six (big disappointment, good graphics, very hard, I still have it, but never play) Tomb Raider Last Revelation (same old, same old) Shadow Man (N64/PS1 port and it shows) Nightmare Creatures 2 (ps1 port with few enhancements, sick fun) Army Men Sarges Heroes (another PS1/N64 port) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubersaurus Posted July 22, 2002 Share Posted July 22, 2002 For fighters, you can't go wrong. I suggest the following: Street Fighter 3: 3rd Strike Tekken 3 Bleemcast! Capcom vs SNK 2 (Import) Fatal Fury: Mark of the Wolves Last Blade 2 King of Fighters 99 Dream Match Street Fighter Alpha 3 Soul Calibur Guilty Gear X (Import) Super Street Fighter 2 X (Import) Virtua Fighter 3 Yeah, it has alot more, but these are favs of me and others.

Atarinvader Posted July 22, 2002 Share Posted July 22, 2002 If you've got about 100+ hours of your life to kill then I'd recomend Skies of Arcadia. Also worthy of a look: Shenmue Crazy Taxi 2 Jet Set Radio THPS 1 or 2 Virtua Tennis V-Rally 2: Expert Edition Sonic Adventure 1 or 2 Stay clear of: Bangi-o Pen Pen Mortal Kombat Gold Toy Racers Tomb Raider: Chronicals Sonic Shuffle Nomad Soul (even though I love Mr Bowie, this is a dud) Other than the above everything is pretty good, except those that common sense tells you to stay clear of, such as any cheapy sports titles..

ubersaurus Posted July 22, 2002 Share Posted July 22, 2002 Grandia 2 is THE RPG for the DC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krisjohn Posted July 23, 2002 Share Posted July 23, 2002 Sonic Adventure 1 or 2 I found the controls on Sonic Adventure to be absolutely appauling, but the worst point came early when I hit some sort of energy conduit that took control of the character (I think I was playing Tails). It was obviously the correct way to go, but it kept dumping me out of the level. One thing I have enjoyed is the Atari 2600 emulator for the DC. I came second in the Thrust+ compo using it. Sound's a little iffy and the colours may not be perfect, but everything else is fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goatdan Posted July 23, 2002 Share Posted July 23, 2002 Watch out or you just might end up in search of all 250ish Dreamcast games made like... um... some of us Here are some games that I think are awesome that you should definitely go out and get (or, for some of them pick them up at the GOAT Store for cheaper: ) Atari Anniversary Edition -- You've got 12 of the best Atari arcade games, and you've got tons of extras in the ways of interviews with Nolan Bushnell and other greats. A real winner! Sega Smash Pack V. 1 -- On this one, you've got 12 classic Sega games including Phantasy Star, Sonic, Golden Axe, Streets of Rage 2 and more. Excellent deal! Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2 -- I don't think that I will ever get enough of this game. It is so absolutely astounding both graphically and gameplay wise that... wow. Mr. Driller -- What a fun little arcade game! A complete blast to play (relatively hard to find though) Ms. Pac-Man Maze Madness -- I guess I'm into naming most of the updates that I like for this message. This is my favorite of them all. A great addition to the Pac-Man universe, although horribly easy. Gauntlet Legends -- Gauntlet is one of those ageless games, and it is a game that I get together with a bunch of friends and play. Another awesome, awesome game. That's about all that I can think of for now, at least when I'm in an arcady mood. I'll come back when I'm in a fighting or platformer mood later maybe and come up with 20 more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdstuff64 Posted July 23, 2002 Share Posted July 23, 2002 Yes the Dreamcast is THE FIGHTING SYSTEM. If you want two good games,that WILL be worth some money too,pick up Bangai-O and Record of Lodoss War(based off the anime).Both games are tons of fun and only 10,000 copies of each were made!Also if you like good old 2d shooters,Mars Matrix from Capcom is also a sweet game. DC! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunstar Posted July 23, 2002 Share Posted July 23, 2002 V-Rally 2! I've got to get this game! Thanks for reminding me Atarinvader! I rented Sega Rally 2 once, and it was o.k., but I have heard V-Rally was very good. Is this a PS1/ N64 sequel? Or is there an original on the DC too?
