Dreamcast Disaster

Hahahaha! \"My Bad.\" What a fucking dumbass. I think Sega\'s done pretty well with their advertising campaign for the Dreamcast except for that one little screw-up. The Apocalypse commercial really kicked ass...

some reason every thing that had sega\'s name on it flopped...Just wait till PSX2 and see how fast we buy that system instead of some craptastic sega console. i Hope psx2 will be cool but then again i wont buy it.. i\'m still happy with the psx1 and my pc.

Um, no... Final Fantasy IX (9) has not been confirmed for Playstation1. \"November 23rd is the date Square will officially announce Final Fantasy IX in Yokohama, Japan\", I saw this at www.ff8.org. That is when they will tell us what platform the next Final Fantasy game is beeing released on. I sure hope it\'s psx2.

I worked at a Game X Change for 6 years during the SNES/GENESIS war.SNES WON big time, anyone who says otherwise is full of shit and didn\'t have enough money left over after they got a genesis to get a SNES.Genesis had a few cool sports games, SNES had all of the best games.A little while after both systems stopped having new games come out, we sold snes games $10-30 each and genesis $5 each.We ran out of snes games quick, we STILL have tons of genesis games in the back because we got tired of having them out in the store for SO long and not selling any.

sega dreamcast is the yin to apple computers yang in the pc/console comparison game... two companies w/ spotty pasts who triumphantly rose from yada yada yak yak yak....

anywhoo... sonic the hedgehog scratching... quoth, \"my bad\"... ugg... if sega is cool, then my grandmother is cool.... and... she\'s not.

but, the \'soul\' series of fighting games, lets say i am.. a fan.. so nice1 there... its looks good too, but on looks + pc, just wait for NV10 aka (gay-force, i mean, geforce256... this was a contest winning name!!??)... that should knock j00 on yer colective asses...

#35: Riiiight. Like computer graphics can\'t touch the pixelicious Dreamcast. Think again.

Yeah and remember how Genesis owned the console wars (by the way I would love to hear you argue otherwise) it had a stranglehold in the console market for almost 3 1/2 years. So they fucked up, but they\'ve learned from their mistakes it seems. Gee, I remember a certain company starting with an N that fucked up their newest system.....

Oh yeah and, hahahaha \"Oh, and is everyone going to really play Soul Calibur BY THEMSELVES until next year???\" <<< looks like someone has no REAL friends....hahahahaha.

Gotta agree with ya there.. I don\'t play consle games at all, but I played this with a friend and I was totally hooked. Now if we could only have models with such high polys in Quake. That would be cool and I might play quake3 for a bit just to see the models.
I especially love the eyeball in the sword.... that is awesome.

DC is pretty awesome... I went ahead and got all the crap (controllers, VMUs, and even the keyboard)...

I have Sonic, NFL2K, and Soul Calibur, and all those games kick much ass...

I\'ll still get a PSX2 when it finally comes out... either way, I\'m set...

#31 chill. Most people probably didn\'t buy the DC for the online games. So what? You buy a console to play friends in the same room. SC kicks ass, but having to buy a separate unit just to save my games does kinda bite. Dude just buy the thing, play it for 6 months, and sell it for half the cost instead of ranting....

I can\'t stand Next Gen because of one issue: the one where they compared UT vs. Q3A vs. TF2. On the cover, they had a little blurb \"Exclusive Half-Life 2 info!\" so I, being a putz, bought it. The exclusive info was Gabe Newell saying he couldn\'t talk about unannounced projects. Shoddy journalism. They might have gotten my four bucks then, but they\'re not getting any more of my money anytime soon...I

Hahaha! You bought a Dreamcast! LoL

Square has expressed interest in the DC, they say that sales have not really been strong enough in Japan. If it takes off in America (which it seems amazingly likely to do) and sales pick up in Japan (hopefully Shen Mue will have some influence here) then it\'s not impossible to see Square developing for the DC at some point. I doubt it\'ll be Final Fantasy, but it might be some other RPG. Personally, I\'m pretty much orgasmic at the news that a new Phantasy Star game is going to be coming out for the DC. It shall own. As if Soul Calibur/Sega Rally 2 aren\'t reasons enough to buy the system.

Whoa Steve.. Old ass news.. this was released by ZD on the day of DC release..

FFIX will be on psx1(square confirmed that a while back), DC kix ass, psx2 will kick ass to,$30 a month and i can get a psx2 next fall.Oh yeah,I really don\'t believe the psx2 will blow away the DC at launch, later on psx2 will own it,but the DC will have a long life.Also, the psx2 is fuxing ugly as hell, the DC has a great console design and the psx2 looks like my car stereo amp.P.S. square is pissing me off- STOP MAKING CINEMATIC/ RPG WANNA BE GAMES WITH SHITTY GAMEPLAY, go back to awesome rpgs like FF3 (amer.) FF8 doesn\'t even have armor!!!!In FF9 you will have to find rocks, take them to a store and turn them into gems, absorb a monster into the gem, match the gem to a certain type of weapon,turn your psx upside down, dance a jig and eat a sandwich , all of that just to cast a spell:). plus there will be 8 CDs and only 5 hours of actual gameplay.I miss real FF games.

#20, the current plan is to develop FF9 for the Playstation, and have 10 be for the PSX2. Since the PSX2 will be backwards compatible, this isn\'t a big deal, but you might have to wait until 2002 or so to see FFX on the PSX2. Which will be amazing, for sure.

Preach on, brother! I worship Soul Calibur now. At first, I was mainly getting the DC just for Virtua Fighter 3, but seeing Soul Calibur, and seeing VF3tb on a friend\'s import...I\'ll still get VF3, but damn. Soul Calibur just rocks my world. I would highly recommend anyone who likes RPG\'s to check out the various media of Shen Mue floating around the web...dreamcast.ign.com has a few of them. The game looks amazing.

I have been thinking about how Final Fantasy IX would be on Playstation 2... If FFIX is beeing released for the PSX2, Square will rule the world! :>

Also this DC is cheap but not after you factor in the cost of getting a VMU to save your games. The internet access is a joke, just because it\'s on a TV, and you have to purchase a KB.... The graphics are a kickass placeholder until PSX2 comes out.... then I\'m selling this thing and getting something to really blow me away...

I finished Powerstone in about 1 1/2 hours... The game was fun as hell but way too easy. I\'ll try some other characters but the moves are the exact same for all of them... Also the AI is sorely lacking... Looking forward to getting home to try out SC...

Man, my spelling has gone to hell since i\'ve been in college :P

anyway, one of my buddies had a defective VMU, anyone else had problems with theirs?

It isn\'t exactly a fighting game, but i higly recommend Power Stone. Two players, running round levels with tons of weapons and objects t grab, lobbing and blowing the shit out of each other .. . this game is a blast. The special moves are awesome as well

Hey Conjure, if you intend it to be a joke, maybe you should think about how you\'re wording it- that original post looked pretty mean-spirited in my opinion.

#8..Next Gen is always dissing the DC?

Yup, you\'re a fuckhead moron.

Do you even read the magazine?

They basically masturbate all over the Dreamcast on every freaking page!

Next-Gen is always dissing the dreamcast so there is no need to complain to them because it happens all the damn time. Im just pissed at the people who complain about it a week after it happend. Sega has refunded all the bad discs and I know this is a news page and I was just making a joke, sheesh take a chill
