Discussion of your best Dreamcast moment(s), not a spam attack.

 

Mine: Playing REZ for the first time. Tripped out because I was up for 15 hours.

[i l l m a t i c]

playing my first online game ever, Unreal tournament

[BoomBa_GoosE]

awww i loved the whole 9/9/1999 release. i love my dreamcast, still do today. i play my mvc2 on it, just like i did when i first bought the thing. indeed, software was kinda weak, but when there are good games on that console, they were REALLY GOOD games. i can say that it was the best console i ever had, next to my saturn. i still love u sega.

Playing Shenmue for the 1st time.

 

An unforgettable experience. Make me wish that I am

staying in Japan

Off the top of my head, finishing Shenmue 2 is one of my favorite moments.

i unfortunatley missed out on the dreamcast experience.

I would have to say when i first got soul calibur and me and my friend stayed up all night playing it i think the score ended up being 152-70 with me being the winner of course.

Me too. I didn't even see the console in stores. Games, yes, but not the console itself. The only time I've ever touched and played a real Dreamcast was at a gaming convention last year.

I vaguely memmer 9/9/99

 

I recall being in the seventh grade and eating churritos that day

[oshisama]

burning dc isos to cd and palying them on teh dc without the need of a modchip ><

[Shibathedog]

I remember my friend Evan got it before I did, we both got it and rushed home to his house as fast as we could, and we plugged it in, and he bought about 5 games for it (too lazy to list) and we where absolutley blown away.

 

We where like oooommmmgggg, it was the sweetest experience ever.

 

I remember one of the biggest things we raved about was how smooth the FPS was, There was this baseball game he had, cant remember exactly which one, and we thought it was so smooth it was almost unreal.

 

Another thing, and something i still rave about to this day, because i dont think any other console has been able to replicate it, is the contrast in colors. I mean, there are graphics out that look really realistic, more realistic than the Dreamcast, but everything on the dreamcast was just so bright and colorfull and absorbing, yet it wasnt cartoony either, it was just beautiful. ESPECIALLY on VGA.

 

anyway, later that night i went and got mine after borrowing some money, i didnt have all of it when me and evan where at the store.

 

then i played mine allll night.

well i bought mine around the time the price dropped to $50 and it came with crazy taxi but my first exprience with dc was from a friend of mine owning one and then i saw maverl vs. capcom playing perfectly like the arcade and my jaw dropped when i saw nfl/nba2k in which i knew sega was on to something.

 

but the console didn't really "grab" to me as like ps1 did when it came out and playing resident evil on it scaring the sh*t out me when playing it at 12am or so heh. same feeling goes to n64 which i also didn't own and still really don't (got the console that really fell off a truck but no back pieces or controllers heh)

when i was still in hong kong i remeber having a chance to pick betwen the ps and dreamcast. picked the PS because me and my sister test bootleg games before my mom ship it to my uncle cuz he's in the us and too lazy to burn his own. plus i've test played his ps before i bought mine but never played the DC so that's y i picked the ps. anyway the Dc seems so rare to me cuz none of my friends had it

Playing Marvel vs. Capcom 2 for atleast 8 hours nonstop during junior year in high school instead of studying for mid-terms. I got my ass kicked most of the time but it was fun as hell and the fun was doubled since it was on a big screen.

[SWAMP_THING]

sega fishing rod as a sword in soul caliber. Great!

oh and playing Marvel vs Capcom 2!
