Now your talking. Another passion of mine is retrogaming.I regularly play my sega megadrive,ps1,n64,dreamcast,gamecube and most recent the xbox 360.
What sort of games have you got for the dreamcast?

Lately ive been replaying Shenmue, but my Disc 3 is deciding not to read my save file anymore! I could weep! Means im having to look for another disc 3 i think! But ive got a shed load of games all qued up, waiting to be played!

can you still go online with the dreamcast? or is it defunked?


Im pretty sure you can still use the Dreamcast for surfing the web, but it will be dial up, and the old style internet (if you can remember that far back) ;)
But as for game servers like PSO, i very much doubt they will still exist..!

Thinking about digging out my NES soon... Fancy having a bash at Duck Hunt ;)

I still have an N64 with 30+ games, rumble pack, 4 controllers and an action replay cartridge. Don't play it much but don't think I'd ever sell it though :)

Goldeneye rocks!!!!!

Cool ive just not long ago completed shenmue. I find it quite an emotional game especially when their probably isnt going to be another.
I also have a nes and have 2 copies of the duck hunt mario combi.
The Dreamcast was a very underrated console and i still think that it looks good today.

My first was a Master System Plus. I was gutted at the time, I wanted the one with Alex Kidd built in :( However, Hang On was the best bike racing game ever, and Safari Hunt with the included gun was good fun. I also managed to get Alex Kidd in the end, what a great game.

My little brother had a Mega Drive, but I skipped straight from the Master System to the Sega Saturn. That was awesome, and when it was around, arguably better than the PS. Then I had a PS One (basically a PSX but tiny in comaprison. That was good fun, with the original Gran Turismo. I think the Saturn may still be around somewhere, and when I progressed to the PS2, my sister got the PS One. Not sure where it is now.

I have the PS3, PSP and XBox 360 now, brother has a PS3 and sister has a Wii and DS. I never had a hand held console until the PSP, now I like the iPhone for games. I don't play reguarly, but I do like gaming. I do think its a real shame that Sega fell away, I always liked their consoles. The advances in games and graphics in a relatively short period has been amazing.

I have never been into PC gaming though. Keyboard controls never did it for me.

The official Sega servers for PSO are long gone, but there is still a large community who play on a private server. You can even play with PC players!

I got my MegaDrive out a couple of weeks ago and have been playing it constantly. I had forgotten how good sonic 1 and 2 are! Streets of rage is pretty amazing too! Sometimes its just as fun playing old school games with awful graphics as it is playing new ones that feel almost real.

I loved Streets of Rage, great game.

I have Sonic 1 and Streets of Rage on the iPhone. They are still good, but the on screen control is annoying
