Thinking of getting a DC...

**Shiori** · October 12th, 2002

I'm thinking of getting a Dreamcast this christmas, as I suddenly don't have a significant other to spend on lavishly (heh).

So what are the standout games for this console? I have my mind set on getting Sakura Taisen and PSO if I get a DC.

The Shenmue saga is a must and Skys of Arcadia is also a very good RPG. Don't forget the best fighting game ever Soul Calibre

Uh, ok... what else?

I once had a chance to get the Love Hina game, unfortunately the store burned down before I even thought of getting it for collection's sake back then.

Soul Calibur, DoA 2..... Those are the only games I use on the DC.... Oh, and Grandia 2.

I'm not much of a fighting games fan, i'm afraid... but I'm a street fighter 3 addict though.

How about that capcom vs snk 2001 game? was it released for the DC?

Can somepone point me to a reliable source of info for DC imports too?

**Kane** · October 12th, 2002

Capcom vs SNK was excellent, although Capcom vs SNK 2 was far better

Ah, I guess they didn't release millionaire fighting (or something like that) for the DC too.

Millionaire fighting was Capcom vs SNK. Capcom vs SNK 2 is Mark of the Millenium.

October 12th, 2002

I have to correct you here, Lord Kane;
capcom vs snk millenium fight 2000, capcom vs snk pro and capcom vs snk2: millionaire fighting 2001 (and those are the correct names) were ALL released on DC.
The sub-name of capcom vs snk 2 was changed for the ps2 release (at least in europe it was)

all versions of street fighter 3 (1st, 2nd, 3rd strike) were released for it as well.

**Shiori** · October 12th, 2002

How about some names of good DC games?

Aiya... Record of Lodoss War and Langrisser Millenium. But other than that, it mostly elicits more "huh" than "wow".

...not exactly an RPG player's console, I see...
