**You got that right. **
hell yeah! I love sonic! Have you seen the sonic games on the gamboy advance? They rule!
Yeah, they are like the originals. 
Sonic is the best mascotte ever! I couldn’t get enough of the little blue running guy. He is so much cooler than Mario.

Yeah, Sonic, I know. 
mario? pfff! I dont understand. Sega had a cool supersonic blue hedghog that kicked an evil doctors *** in each game. Nintendo had a short fat italian plumber who spent his time eating magic mushrooms. Please go read this ----> http://www.rahindeed.com/reviews/games/sonic.html
of course sonic was good… no doubt, but there were some other really brilliant games on the mega drive… in fact… it is probably my favourite console of all time… I always much preferred it to my friends snes…
and yes, sonic is so much better than mario (character-wise :))
EDIT: Orange, you spelt Robotnik wrong
I agree! De Genesis / MegaDrive is the best cosole ever! EVER! I still don’t get why the DreamCast didn’t get the attention it diserved.
Orange, you evil Sonic maniac!
yeah, Dreamcast was the most underrated console ever… it had so many great games… it’s a shame it didnt survive… with the right support it could have been amazing… I can’t understand it… what a waste :-\
I’m thinking of buying one with a couple of games. They are so cheap now!
it did get some attention, but the playstaion already had an established market. Before the days of 32 bit consoles, computer gaming was still pretty elite and considered for kids. Since the 32 bit “next generation” revolution consoles have found their ways into the living rooms and computer gaming is now considered a major part of the entertainment industry - some would say it is greater than movie making!.
Sony pushed the envelope and injected the home console into the home lifestyle market. They created games for more mature gamers and thus establshed their own market niche for quite some time. Consequently sony playstation is the most trusted brand as it is the one that most people are already familier with. (Ask your grandma about dreamcast and she wont have a clue, but mention playstion and she will know you mean!)
Because of this, the dreamcast flopped. People already trusted sony and didn’t want to chance it on another console. Add to that the fact that PS2 was backwards compatible and thus alreaady had an established game base of well over 500 titles. The dreamcast was great, and i still play mine quite a lot, it just had know chance against the marketing might of sony.
eBay is the way forward I did consider it… but I can’t afford one… even at their current price
another thing i have noticed since i bought a dreamcast a month ago. - Shenmue is not as good as i remember!
the console. the games. the price. :love:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3535840882&category=4305
ummm. my firwall blocked the site. what price is it? Does it have ‘power stone’?
Your work blocked Ebay? I wonder why…
I don’t know if the games are super duper:
The games are, Fur Fighters, Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 & 2, Ready to Rumble Boxing, Sonic Adventure, Outrigger, Army Men Sarges Heros,Toy Commander, Sonic Shuffle,Saga Sports World Series Baseball 2K1, and Time Stalkers.
I’m not a big fan of the titles so far, except for the Sonic ones. Boxing? Ew. Skating? Yuk. Baseball? Pfff… boring.
It’s a black DreamCast (Sega Sports). $100.
If you guys are after older consoles, try Computer Exchange. They’ve got a whole load of traded in games and consoles and stuff, even more obscure things like the Sega Saturn. 
There’s one in Bromley, I get a lot of stuff from there.
oh! computer exchange! they had cool comic strips for their adverts! Black dreamcast? wow, never knew they existed. The next game i getting for my DC is shenmue two. Im disapointed playing the first one again, but i still wanna see the second one
did you know shenmue was originally for the saturn?
DC has been the best console IMHO it had the most innovative games and revolutionary graphics heck the best fighting game of all time is on the DC only SOUL CALIBUR everything else is just a game, they also introduced the virtual memory cards as well as internet gaming any1 here played Phantasy Star Online??? or any sports game?? heck it was awesome and a new experience to low end users that cannot buy a pc. All in all DC if not the best its was the most innovative console in history IMHO heck xbox just added a HD and took advantage of all the help they gave SEGA in the creation of the DC thus MS making the xbox.
And asphalt shadow dancer is one of the best shinobi games ever, the PS2 version of shinobi is great as well i suggest you check it ut if you havent, im looking forward to ninja gaiden on xbox if its as great as i hope it will be im gonna purchase a xbox just to play that game :beam:

yeah, I’ve got shadow dancer on japanese import… another great game… but i think I still prefer Revenge of… I noticed Shinobi on ps2… it does look mightily cool… but i dont own a ps2… and I dont want to espso I’ll have to dream about shinobi instead
:love:
I have shinobi, it is a cool game, but Tenchu blows it out of the water!
