Thread: Dreamcast Games?

    don't bother trying to run VCDs. there are VCD programs, but VCDs are never going to look good on a dreamcast. truth is, dreamcast's 3D graphics were hella sweet but it was just not designed to be a movie player. best approach to watching movies on a dreamcast is to encode them to SFD (dreamcast's official MPEG/FMV format) then stick it on a self-booting disc along with an SFD player prog. should play very smooth then, but that's a lot of trouble just to watch movies at lower-than-VCD quality.

    i picked up a used DC in great condition for sumfin' like $15 or $20 at EB Games last year, to replace one that i wore out. they are cheap nowadays. swapped the internal parts into my old DC's shell, which was cleaner than the one from EB. now i've got two of 'um in just-about-pristine condition... one to play now, and one as a backup.

    o man. panasonic's suggested retail price for that thing was $700, at launch time. sounds like you got a bargain.

    not that 3DO was bad hardware... it was just overpriced and never managed to carve out its niche (as far as hot, exclusive games go).

    in comparison it's almost unbelievable that the dreamcast failed. it had a reasonable price, awesome technology under the lid, very respectable sales numbers, and lots of great exclusive games that you couldn't play on any other system. even its non-exclusive games were miles ahead of the psx and n64 versions. by all rights it should've been the #1 console for its time, but circumstances proved that selling a high-quality product isn't always enough.

    i play as many of my ps2 games as possible from a hard drive with hdloader, cause i've heard so many stories about the ps2's dvd drive being a piece of unreliable junk. crossin' my fingers in hope that it never breaks.
