Fantastic DC games...

[Wazzerphuk]

Oh yes, that's right: A Dreamcast thread!

I feel like having a little bit of a DC revival. I have just ordered Resident Evil: Code Veronica, since I never played it and love the RE games. If it is good enough, I may well get Nemesis - is that any good?

I'm looking to add a couple more titles to my collection, since they are cheap. Anyone got any recommendations, that aren't super expensive (e.g. Rez and Ikargua) that I don't already have?

Current list:
Crazy Taxi
Powerstone
Powerstone 2
Soul Calibur
Virtual Tennis
Metropolis Street Racer
Sega Rally 2
Virtua Tennis
I've probably forgotten one or two off the top of my head....

Note: not interested in the sequels for Virtua Tennis or Crazy Taxi. Any recommendations would be appreciated.

Ikaruga's a good shoot-em up if you're into them. Have a look at Border Down too.
Marvel Vs Capcom 2
House of the Dead 1 and 2 if you can get hold of the guns and they work on your telleh.
Typing of the Dead if you can get hold of a DC keyboard.

Erm, there's quite a few others that I can't think of right now. Will have a look at my collection when I get home.

Just get typing of the dead on the pc - no need to play it on the DC. It's absolutely uber too

 

[Wazzerphuk]

Yeah I played Typing of the Dead on PC... I was shite at it

As for Ikaragua, I'd like it - but it's too expensive for what it is.

I've never heard of Border Down - what type of game etc is it?

As for Marvel vs Capcom, I hate 2d beat 'em ups, sorry. Horses for courses and all that.

Will have a think about House of the Deads, maybe if their price is right, but I can't see myself playing them for more than a couple of hours before having a) completed them and b) got a little bored of arm ache

You just reminded me that I do not own crazy taxi

there are many great games just a sahem a good majority of em are japanese

 

[Wazzerphuk]

Ah yes, I also have Jet Set Radio and Shenmue. I played Shenmue 2, but was pretty let down by it: it's very uneventful (got midway through the 4th disc and gave up).

Is Border Down a UK release?

 

[Yaka]

all the goos shit post DC "life" is japan only

Well I'll keep my suggestion of SF3:3rd Strike to myself then

 

[Wazzerphuk]

[Deepfried]

panza dragoon ortas pretty fun (the rail shoot em up)

but i used to fucking love the panzer dragoon RPG (forgot exact name) you start on a ship, and the matter of time it takes you to get off/different people you interact with, a different part of the game you play, to my memory its amazing, well worth checking out

 

[~Latency~]

err yeah, forget the orta one thats xbox :| tha rpgs proper good tho

 

[Wij]

The RPG one is Panzer Dragoon Saga, for the Saturn.

Worth a packet.
