Steam has Dreamcast games now

Lifer
Sonic Adventure DX
Crazy Taxi
Space Channel 5: Part 2
Sega Bass Fishing

The only one I'd want is Crazy Taxi. I loved that game so much. I hope this isn't the same version that was released on console's that doesn't have the original Offspring music but it probably is.

they are pretty much the same generation, but it came out 2-3 years before PS2/XBOX so its not really a fair comparison since 2-3 years in tech is like another generation

it looked pretty awesome for when it came out

it was great for it's time. compatibility with the arcade naomi boards and pc functions as well. Some of the best games came out on dreamcast: soulcalibur, powerstone, dead or alive2, tons of capcom fighters, crazy taxi, samba de amigo, jet grind radio, phantasy star online, typing of the dead.

Yeah, and Kilik's staff whooped some ass.
 
i wish the DC emulator worked better. i still have my DC and about 30 games which to me is the best way to really enjoy the nostalgia and fun of the games. But is a pain to drag out and hook up. If the emu worked better i'd just use that rather than pay again for games i already own.

power stone 2 with online multiplayer

The original Power Stone was great as well (I liked both really, but I preferred the first one). If they bring Power Stone and Starlancer I'll buy them (but they need to have proper configurable keys for keyboard and mouse controls, that's for sure).
 
I know how there's a ton of people who adore the dreamcast, but it's one of my least liked consoles ever. I could honestly count on one hand how many games (besides sports games) that I liked... and none of them are in that pack.

I loved the NFL2K series at the time, and they were pretty much cutting edge.

Starlancer came out on PC before DC I think. Either way, I've played them both (loved that game) and they are pretty identical.
 
If they can make this work with my 360 controller without having to use some odd software outside of the game. Count me in on a lot of games.

Too bad Sony are such assholes or they would do something similar for the PS2. There are a bunch of games I would pay for.

Dude, the xpadder software that I liked above is extremely simple to set up. You might have to launch it as administrator to get it to work with some games. Just select what buttons you want to map to what keyboard keys, go into the game, and map what buttons you want to use for what, and the rest is history.
