Title: Sega Dreamcast of 2001= Microsoft Xbox of 2004
Post by: MANBEARPIG. on January 18, 2005, 04:04:13 AM

now that I have an Xbox I dont play it much but I realized that it is just what Dreamcast would be today if it had succeded. 

They are both systems that had awesome graphics. Dreamcast has/had better exclusive games: Tokyo Extreme Racer 2, Shenmue, Sonic Adventure 1 and 2,Powerstone 1 and 2, Techromancer,Evolution series, Crazy Taxi, Unreal Tournament, Quake 3 arena, everyu sportgame was better and had the first good online with the same concept as Xboxlive

If dreamcast would have kept upa and a part 2 came out or dreamcast just stayed strong it would be top of the marker right now.

i think Xbox is doing a lot better than Dreamcast.

i'm beginning to realise the gamecube is a lot more popular than i realised.. its a much more social thing..

like this weekend i played a lot of 4 player mario kart, and some mad monkey fighting game thing (also 4 player)

Dreamcast was ahead of its time.

You can also blame its anti-success on the really.. REALLY.. bad design.

GC and X Box can be more fun socially

PS2 is almost strictly one player. they got multi shit but not as good as the other consoles.

dreamcast is one of the greatest consoles ever made...only thing i really play on xbox is halo 2

once my ps2 comes back from getting modded, that will have my attention for awhile
