2005 Manu vs 1999 SEGA dreamcast

[DAF86]

Discuss, tbh.

[RD2191]

:lol

[Trainwreck2100]

The 1999 dreamcast had NBA showtime which combined GOAT NBA on NBC intro with GOAT NBA jam. Two GOATS better than one GOAT. That shit is science law and can't be refuted

[Chinook]

Quite enjoyed the Dreamcast. Still have one in storage. It's a shame Sega was awful at releasing consoles after the Genesis. The console market has been worse since they bowed out.

[Baam]

I have the Dreamcast emulator on my phone and a gamepad, tried to play Shenmue to see what the hype was all about, looked great but the terrible gameplay made me rage-quit pretty quickly :/.

Skies of Arcadia is OK but I just don't have the patience for it :sleep.

[TheyCallMePro]

First game I ever played on Sega Dreamcast was Virtua Tennis. Great game.

Then of course Gaunlet Legends and Soul Caliber. And NBA SHOWTIME THE BEST GAME EVER.

[spurraider21]

u didnt say 1 on 1 tbh :lol

Probably one of my top two consoles oot. The graphical jump from PS / N64 was unlike anything to date, including PS3 / Xbox360 to gaming PC.. Jizzed my shorts when I first played the 2k's and Soul Calibur.

Some of my favs..

Shenmue
Sonic Adventure
RE Code Veronica (played this shit on acid)
Unreal Tournament
Fire Pro D
Dead or Alive
House of the Dead

[Arcadian]

Dreamcast, and it's not close.

Shenmue is pretty cool, but it took a few hours to get into. Played Skies on the Gamecube, and it is easily a top-five game I've ever played. I haven't replayed it in years, though, since I don't want to sink a hundred hours into something I've already done.

I didn't have a lot of DC games, since I was a poor teenager at the time. But I liked Crazy Taxi, Sonic Adventure and even Ecco quite a bit.

I might dust off the system with all this nostalgia going on.

[ElNono]

Shenmue and Jet Set Radio on the Dreamcast were dope, tbh...

[jeebus]

The Sega/Nintendo rivalry of the 90s produced the best games imo. Way better than the same boring FPS' put out by the soulless corporations of Sony and Microsoft tbh.

[RD2191]

Was crazy taxi on dreamcast? Takes me back to new years 2000 in greeley co.

Even early Sony was awesome. I grew up on the PSX platformers like Spyro and Ape Escape.

spyro the dragon is one of the best games i can remember from the original PlayStation :tu

my 2 favorite consoles are the PS2 and the N64 though

Hell yeah to Spyro. The first game was so awesome that I stuck with the series for another dozen years even though it was pretty much a straight line downhill from there. This Skylanders crap went too far, though.

I only had an N64 for Smash Bros. It sucks now, because I missed out on the last good Rare games like DK64 and Banjo Kazooie. Never had any Sony systems after PSX, though, since that was my brother's console.

[philldafunk]

Shenmue is actually a really dope game, you should give it a shot

That is true, early Sony was tits. I never had a playstation but I played the shit out of at friends' places.

Hell of an offseason guys. Championship = Dreamcast threads

I just remember lifting weights in that game. Only played it for a week, and I dunno if I actually got into a match.

[UZER]

Don't forget Sega bass fishing. That game was so dumb, but damn it was addicting, frustrating, and peaceful all in one. Enjoyed the crap out of that stupid game.

[Mikeanaro]

I dont have it anymore, sold it years ago to buy a PS2, and sometimes I regret it because DC had better colors and much better 2d games, of course I had a CRT screen and that time and my ps2 thru big LCD screens look like shit so both consoles dont go along with LED screens but the whole time that DC was at home I finished lots of games, Marvel vs Capcom 1&2, Resident evil 2, Jet Set Radio, Ikaruga, Hevay Metal Fakk and tons of other Capcom games (now know as CRAPCOM), Soul Calibur, DOA 2, Metropolis Speed Racer and Shenmue but the most unique game ever was Ecco the Dolphin=Defender of the Future...best game ever I would kill anyone who doesnt agree with me.
Dreamcast was so great but Sega had bad sales on 32x Sega Cd and Saturn so their finances were really low and had to shutdown their hardware division so our DC had a 3 year span, Manu 2005 was pure white chocolate and a joy to my country... I pick Manu.
Is not all lost for the DC I still play some games in my emulator and they run almost perfect.

[UZER]

Personal fav games, Capcom vs SNK, NBA 2K.

[DJR210]

i am surprised only a few people remember the powerstone series. to me thats the best multi player game.

:lol

Ikaruga, Rez, Resident Evil Code Veronica, Powerstone 1 & 2, NBA Showtime, NBA 2K2, Crazy Taxi 1/2, Canon Spike, The house of the dead 1&2 & shenmue are awesome games that come to mind now.

Dreamcast > Manu. I feel dirty saying that

Why you got Pensatucky as your avatar, bro? :lol

[Johnny RIngo]

Skies of Arcadia is a top 5 all-time JRPG. Classic imo. That's the only thing I remember from the DC. Crazy Taxi and SoulCalibur were cool too. Never did like 3D Sonic though.

[Johnny RIngo]

DK64 sucks though. Replace that with Conker and your statements good.

[Spurs9]

Dreamcast was the best system when it was released tbh. I remember that you could burn games and they would work no problem. My bro had a ton of japanese games he would get and we could never understand any of it as we played. Powerstone was awesome, chuchu rocket, fantasy star online tbh and sh:lolnmu:lol

Probably one of the reasons it died so quickly. Easiest to pirate system in videogame history. That combined with PS2 being the cheapest DVD player on the market.

[UZER]

Don't forget, you could "surf the web" on the dream cast...nomsayin

It had shitty third party support outside of the Japanese developers.

Anyway, I remember wasting an absurd amount of time on Tony Hawk Pro Skater. Shenmue is one of my favorite games ever and I also immensely enjoyed SOA and Grandia II. Capcom vs SNK and Soul Calibur were fucking great as well as NBA 2k, Showtime and NFL 2k.

The 2nd Tony Hawk is probably my favorite. Gradually lost interest in the series after that one.

It was 56k. I was referring to looking at boobies.

Manu was a replaceable role player

Dreamcast was the best of its time

:lol she actually doesn't look bad irl but I still can't help but think of those nasty ass teeth and gums she had as Pensatucky.

anyone remember Samba de Amigo?!? with the playable maracas?!?

[DJR210]

Yeah..Sonic had me hooked within 5 minutes with the killer whale breaking through the bridge sequence. For Resident Evil, it was one of the last true games with the old school controls and gameplay, and ties to the original story. I know you get RE3 not long after, but it just wasn't the same to me anymore. 4,5, and 6 might as well be Gears of War.

RS0 was in the old style, but it may as well have been forgotten since it came out on the cube.

[UZER]

Code Veronica was the only RE game I ever played start to finish.

What is RS0? The Resident Evil 1 remake??

[Chinook]

Nope. Resident Evil Zero. Prequel game.

[Spur-Addict]

Dreamcast in a landslide. We're talking about Soul Cali, the 2k brand, Virtua Fighter, Dead Or Alive, Marvel Vs Capcom and of course, Sonic.

[DJR210]

Code Veronica was the only RE game I ever played start to finish.

Well worth it too. They had that weird crossdressing faggot chasing you around with a sniper rifle which was strange, but it all rounded out to a great entry into the franchise. That fucking crazy 8 armed thing with the blindfold they had strapped down in a holding cell that you hear screaming somewhere near you while you explored the area was pretty twisted IMO.

[lefty]

Manu because he is still running

[DJR210]

Hmmm..never played that, may have to get the emulator and the game. I still havent played the remake of part 1.

Yeah. Used to play it late at night in the dark. Really set the mode.

[Fpoonsie]

Gingerly.

[MI21]

Fucking Dreamcast was the best, parents were slacking on buying a new console so I used to fucking hire the actual console and 2K, Virtua Fighter etc and stay up all night playing it with my mates and talking about what bitches we liked (I was 13).

:cry

[Jenks]

The worst controller in the history of video games tips the battle in favor of Manu.

"Look, you can stick your retarded little tamogatchi screen into the controller!" Fucking idiots.

[HI-FI]

pretty good thread from the OP, a worthy comparison as 00's Manu was an all time favorite player of mine, but Dreamcast is the most underrated system I've owned or played.

....ultimately, I'm going to give the nod to the Dreamcast. I forgot some of 05 Manu but I still think about Jet Grind Radio, Sonic, Skies of Arcadia, RE:Code Veronica, the 2K series, all the many burned games I still haven't gotten around to playing :cry

both Dreamcast and 05 Manu were great yet under-appreciated, but Dreamcast got me back into gaming after losing interest during the PS1.

i don't remember some of that shit. Well I remember the crossdressing fag. wasn't it Alice and Alex as the twins?

what I'll never forget was I rented CV for the Dreamcast, but didn't own it til much later, so actually beat the PS2 port first. there was a section where you had to find a steering wheel on the ground and I about lost my mind unable to find it, I backtracked everywhere. then when you play it on the Dreamcast, the objects just stick out enough so you can still find them.

The Dreamcast had some of the most unique looking games, especially with color gradients, so Code Veronica looks so much better than the shitty ports to follow.

Yeah, was a toss up when I made the original comment. The original Xbox is def my second worst. As for the DC controller, I actually liked it. The memory unit in the center was actually a good thing for me, loved using it to hide my play calling on NFL2K

SSX Tricky on PS2 was a definite first ballot HOF. 05 Manu would be 2nd, maybe 3rd ballot HOF due to olympic success.

I was 11/12 so we really weren't into girls yet. But I would spend the night at my friends house and his mom would wear a t shirt to sleep. Guess who had double Ds and also gave good night kisses on the forehead? Oh the humanity!

The dc had the best fighting game ports. MvC2, cvs2...man. too bad downloaded games killed that dream.
