Title: Best Dreamcast game??
Post by: Missionfailed on August 20, 2013, 10:47:40 AM
Thinking back on Sega's last attempt at a home console, which game or games stand out the most that you are glad that u played and purchased. I wish the DC would have thrived and lived longer than it did as i jumped on it at launch. I thought Soul Caliber was amazing (Was a fan of Soul Edge), Shenmue brought a whole new experience to gaming and the likes of Skies of Arcadia got me back into RPGs.

Hard to pick just one, or just 7.  The Dreamcast games I had the most fun with are

Crazy Taxi 2-LOVED the mini games, Crazy Box I think it was called
Marvel VS Capcom 2-spent hours playing with my brother unlocking everything we could
Legacy of Kain Soul Reaver-Fantastic action platformer with Metroidvainia elements
Mortal Kombat Gold-Not the best MK but one that I played a lot and enjoyed
Phantasy Star Online-just a lot of fun.  Not sure how it would be fully offline, though
Power Stone 2-Great party game that I still play when friends are over
Street Fighter 3 DI/TS-Best stand alone SF on consoles if you ask me.
Virtua Tennis-I can't stress how great this game is with 4 players

I haven't had much experience with the Dreamcast, but I play Soul Calibur at a friend's house a year ago and was amazed at how well it played and how great it looked.  SCII is still my favorite, but SC was more fun for me than SCV was.

Very favourite game was Phantasy Star Online closely followed by Shenmue.

I could list here forever and many are mentioned. I just want to mention an amazing game no one has played but a great Zelda like game with hand drawn visuals.


Elemental Gimmick Gear or E.G.G

Bangai-O for me. That game is insanely fun and easily my favorite on the system.

Both Powerstone games were fun.
2K2 sports titles were actually pretty fun.
Skies of Arcadia was probably tops for me.

Phantasy Star Online, Skies of Arcadia, and Capcom vs. SNK would be my tops. Lots of great titles to choose from on that system.

Dreamcast actually had a awesome library despite the lack of support from 3rd parties. And if you had the means, it was another great console to import for.

My personal favorites were Skies of Arcadia, Grandia II, Power Stone, Sonic Adventure 2, Soul Calibur (THE best fighting game on the DC other than MvC and CvSNK), Record of Lodoss War, Bangai-O, Phantasy Star Online (both versions), Shenmue, Jet Set/Grind Radio, and the Sakura Taisen/Wars series for imports.

The Dreamcast had so many great titles it's hard to pick just one. The games I played the most were Power Stone 1 & 2, Shenmue, Crazy Taxi, Phantasy Star Online and Chu Chu Rocket.

I would have to say out of the ones I've played I would say Skies of Arcadia, Soul Caliber, and Crazy Taxi. There are many more that I haven't experienced yet like Phantasy Star Online and House of the Dead that I hear are great. Picking just one though, Skies of Arcadia, I like my RPGs.

Resident Evil Code:  Veronica was a system exclusive for a while and was the reason I picked up a Dreamcast.  I loved the hell out of that game.  Same with Marvel vs. Capcom 2.  I spent an ungodly amount of time playing that game.  Powerstone is probably my favorite of games that didn't end up being ported to other systems.

Virtua Tennis. Great alone, even better with a group.
