So today I went to the mall to get a new pair of glasses after mine broke yesterday, and I decided to go ahead and shop around while I waited. There's a relatively new game store there that usually has some good stuff, and I walked in and saw a CIB Dreamcast for $35. Needless to say I bought it.

Now what games would you guys recommend?

Chu Chu Rocket, if you're into action-puzzle games.
Maybe Sonic Adventure 2? It's better than Sonic Adventure 1... and has a vastly superior Chao system, if you're into virtual pets.
Heck, Chao are the only reason I still play that game.

Soul Caliber all the way!! slick
If you like racing games, I recommend Test Drive: Le Mans. It, honest to god, has some of the best graphics that you will find in a racing game on the Dreamcast. And (OMG), its fun! Grin
Sonic Adventure 2 (Its Okay, get it if your a sonic fan)
Crazy Taxi 1 and 2 (1 is vastly Superior)
Resident Evil (I'm not a fan of the series, but it is quite a good game)

This is a short synopsis of the Dreamcast:

I could tell you but then you'd want to kill me.  Perhaps narrowing down the selection to genres of gaming you perfer would be more easy.  The system covered all the major ones fairly well for it's 2+ year life span.

Gundam Side Story 0079 is awesome.
Bangai - O is another really great game.

Other people have noted some of the other really good games.

Actually I was joking but I forgot that was on there.  Sega Swirl was a cool game.  Very Enjoyable.  So I take back my joke.
