If you haven't got one already then look here:


Amazon Sale


Amazing.


Get a step down transformer and a DC-X to allow you to play all region games and you are in heaven!!

 

[bodhi]

No, you;re stuck with a crap console with no new games on the horizon. Bargain!

 

[Embattle]

But already has a shed load of classic games that can be had for a few pounds

 

[bodhi]

Yay! Let's play Shenmue and wait for a virtual bus for 3 hours!

 

[Embattle]

That is shit.

 

[Wazzerphuk]

Once again the Sony fanboy shows he actually has no clue about any game ever. Oh and Shenmue 2 came out last night.

*spunk*

 

[bodhi]

Sony fanboy? That supposed to be a cutting insult?

Whose system is still alive and killing the opposition? Whose system still has AAA titles being developed for it? Whose system had decent games in the first place?

Basically, none of the so called AAA games on DC impressed me. The games themselves might have been good, but controlling them with the god awful DC pad was like driving down the motorway with your cock.

No, just an observation.

That'd be the GameCube then.

Did you actually bother to even play any of them for more than 2 seconds?

Then buy a different pad. There were plenty available. Personally I found the DC pad to be excellent after you got used to it. But then I am told I have hands the size of plates.

 

[bodhi]

Ah so you're the other person in Britiain who thinks Gamecube is better than PS2.

 

[Wazzerphuk]

Anyone who's played extensively on both will agree with me. That is if they have half a brain and are prepared to give things a chance. (e.g. they're not a Sony fanboy)

 

[bodhi]

There are more of us (which you cuttingly call the Sony fanboy) than there are of you

 

[Moving Target]

True, me being one of them

 

[Daffeh]

£34, boy i wouldnt mind picking up a DC at that price, even though i already have a PS2

 

[Daffeh]

hehehe and i love that paper clip thing

'hey it looks like you're writing a letter'

Which is one of the reasons the DC "failed" as some say. The general public, as we all know is generally thick and will swallow anything shoved in front of their lips. The number of stupid, ignorant people in this world greatly outbalances those with a clue and an open mind.

 

[bodhi]

Looking at the FIFA series I would probably agree with you actually. Ah well. At least DC is a more tempting propostiton than Xbox. As much as I'd love to have my games stutter while the anti-virus software runs I think I'll pass on Xbox thanks

 

[Wazzerphuk]

At least we're agreed on something.

 

[bodhi]

Your Xbox was not shut down properly, please wait while Scandisk runs.

etc etc

 

[Nibbler]

'Scandisk found no errors. We think this is suspicious. Therefore we are wiping your 8gb hard drive, with all your saved games on it, as a precaution.'

 

[jreal]

Yes and the sony hardrive will be any different?

And even if you dont get the ps2 one you can bet there 'll be one on the ps3 as standard which will be here sooner than expected according to sony themselves

As for the DC i got mine when it first came out and i still think its great value even at £200,for £34 thats insane,and shenmue 2 and virtua tennis 2 are out soon as well as rez,headhunter was out last week so there are still titles out yet and the back catalogue of games is awesome and many are dirt cheap by now so grab one while ya can,its awesome

 

[old.Munkie]

I managed o pick up a used Jap copy of Samba de Amigo today!!



Just ordered a pair of marracas from www.lik-sang.com to go with it.


Me shakes in anticipation.

 

[old.Jayminator]

Bhodi you don't have a clue. Whilst the PS2 is a fantastic machine with many great titles now available you cannot simply slate Dreamcast for being dead. It has an amazing back catalogue of games which anyone who knows anything about games can clearly see. Xbox also has some fantastic games on the horizon, but for some reason you're still jaded.

Why do you choose to limit your choice of games? You're being a dumbass, now go and get a Dreamcast, we can all see you want one but are just slagging it to convince yourself that your PS2 wasn't a waste of cash. So come on, be true to yourself and give in to the power of good games!

 

[bodhi]

Bhodi you don't have a clue.

Quite an obvious retort to this one, but I'll let it fly.

Whilst the PS2 is a fantastic machine with many great titles now available you cannot simply slate Dreamcast for being dead.

Um it is dead. Even Dreamcast magazines seem to agree with me. Considering they've stopped making it and all.

It has an amazing back catalogue of games which anyone who knows anything about games can clearly see.

None of them really appeal to me at all, mainly because of the utterly utterly shit DC controller.

Xbox also has some fantastic games on the horizon, but for some reason you're still jaded.

Please name one.

Why do you choose to limit your choice of games?

Hardly. I have a PC and a PS2. I pretty much have the widest choice of games availible.

You're being a dumbass, now go and get a Dreamcast, we can all see you want one but are just slagging it to convince yourself that your PS2 wasn't a waste of cash.

Er no, I don't want one. Which I've said quite a lot. If I did want one I would have bought one by now.

So come on, be true to yourself and give in to the power of good games!

OK. I'll go and get Devil May Cry tomorrow then

 

[Wazzerphuk]

Once again you show your ignorance and lack of basic intelligence. "The games don't appeal because I don't like the controller." Well get a third party one then you stupid fuckhead? I don't like the PS2 or GameCube controllers, but I'd still want the games, and they still appeal to me regardless.

Return of the Sony fanboy. It's stupid, and arrogant fucking viewpoints like this that lead to shit consoles succeeding, and bad games being produced.

 

[Moving Target]

But shouldn't the controller that's shipped with the console be good anyway?

 

[Wazzerphuk]

Bodhi's the first person I've come accross to have a problem with it. Least, one this "serious". It's a very good controller allround. Unconventional, yes, but very comfortable, and it doesn't crush everything together, unlike most pads seem to enjoy doing.

 

[Moving Target]

The PS2 one I can use comfortably

The third party ones were worse. If you could find them.

 

[old.Jayminator]

Basic fact is Dreamcast has good games. To say something isn't good just because you don't personally appreciate it is very shallow-minded. You have to look at things objectively and understand what makes them good even if it's not your bag.

For instance I have no interest in the new Lord of the Rings films, but others do so I just accept that whilse being excellent for those who enjoy it, it's just something I won't get into.

It's this level of self-awareness and well-thought out reasoning that Bhodi lacks.

Sorry to knock you off that pedestal which all Dreamcast owners seem to elevate themselves to, but you seem to lack the basic ability to read someone's name THEN SPELL THE FUCKING THING PROPERLY.
