Dreamcast in general Reviews

Today (24/01/2001) is indeed a very sad day. Today there were reports from Sega themselves that they would cease production of the Dreamcast console in March of this year. As a result Sega would become a 'software only' company. Sega who made profit losses for the forth year in a row have been losing almost £60 on every Dreamcast ...  Read the complete review

In the smoke and mirrors surrounding the October launch of the PS2, it'd be a crime to overlook the planned Euro/US release of one of Sega's most original and captivating titles yet. Not long out in Japan, Jet Set Radio (to be re-titles Jet Grind Radio in the US) has been touted as a cross between Tony Hawk's Skateboarding and arcade ...  Read the complete review

If you’re somebody who loves the rough American sports then NHL 2000 will be right up your street with superb graphics and quality authentic sound. When playing the game for the first time I loved the way you could barge other players out of the way and go straight for goal. You can play as any one of America’s top teams in a league or ...  Read the complete review

DAYTONA USA! Born in the USA? No? Well that’s not a problem because the greatest thrill of your life is about to hit the Dreamcast games console in a matter of weeks! Daytona USA Online is set to redefine the way we play racing games, and I’m sure it’ll be every bit as good as the experts predict! I remember back a few ...  Read the complete review

The Dreamcast is set to fall dramatically in the retail price, and the games hopefully also. This is because Sega have only managed to sell 6,000,000 of their consoles, compared with other rivals, such as Playstation, which sold 75,000,000! This is why I absolutely recommend that you watch the way the prices are going in the ...  Read the complete review

It may be true that the Dreamcast sales started off slowly, but it has now become the best selling Christmas console, and has some absolutely astonishing titles available for it now! I got mine just a week ago, and despite rumours of the Dreamcast's 'death', it has proven to be the best console I have ever owned! I have a ...  Read the complete review

Isnt it fantastic that the dreamcast is going to be shut down after just one year ? its funny though that this was sega's most successful year since the release of the megadrive . Now I think the main problems were the lack of advertising compared to playstation 2 and the sheer inability to stick to the release dates of the games and the ...  Read the complete review

Ok. I bought a Dreamcast on launch day and had high hopes for the future. The launch games were great and there has been a stream of decent games coming out over the last year. Then I heard today that dc production was being halted in March. The reason, well apparently (and it seams to be true) Sega ran up £135 million pounds worth ...  Read the complete review

Sega’s latest offering is the Dreamcast which I bought back in November 00 for the sum of £149.99. This included 4 games of varying quality and one controller. The games generally are dependent on the store you purchase from. Having never owned my own console before (but having played most/seen others) this was something of a big step not ...  Read the complete review

Th Dreamcast is in my opinion, the best gaming console out at the moment; yes, it is even better than the Playstation 2. There are so many good games for this console, you can't really resist wanting to get them all and play them........actually you caan but still. I think that Dreamcast is a great console to have and the games that ...  Read the complete review

Dreamcast is sega's most recent offering in the computer market. It received a lot of hype when released but has more recently been put under pressure by playstation 2's arrival. This should not be. Dreamcast uses all of it's hardware and potential in every game made. Each game looks buetifull and each one is brilliant in it's own way. Dreamcast ...  Read the complete review

Well in a year where the Sony PlayStation2 has had blanket media coverage and has been the number one item on every child, adult and grannys wishlist I had no choice but to buy a console. That console being the Sega Dreamcast. And I haven't looked back for a second! I bought the DC as part of a £150 package from Curry's. Normally I ...  Read the complete review

I had one of these for Christmas and man, its BRILLIANT. I love it. I have only been able to put it down for a few minutes to write an opinion on DOOYOO to tell you all to go out and buy one. I have not had the pleasure of PS2 yet so I cant make a comparison against it but it blows the playstation out of the water. Mainly because of ...  Read the complete review

When I first heard about the Dreamcast I thought it was going to be a load of rubbish and that what I heard from people that PL2 would be better so I didn’t get one.I though no way, Sega could never produce a good games console, how wrong I was. The Dreamcast has got to be the best console released so far, and the PS2 is but a poor ...  Read the complete review

When I finally bought a DC, it was die to the ridiculous situatiion at Sony. The preorder sheme from hell made me decide to get a DC and to wait for a PS2. I don't regret it. The DC is a stunning kit, it looks good, was a lot cheaper and has games to die for. It goes online for gaming as well as the net, and generally gives ...  Read the complete review

Despite being over a year old now Sega’s white beauty of a machine has suddenly come into its own. With the recent release of games like Shenmue, Metropolis Street Racer and Jet Set Radio this piece of kit has suddenly become very desirable indeed. To top it all off, Sony have rather embarrassingly mucked up the UK launch of the ...  Read the complete review

A short while ago I wrote an opinion on the Playstation 2. I have not played on Sony's new world beater so I just wrote based on what I had read about the machine both prior to and after its release. I was not over enthusiastic about the playstation for a number of reasons and one feedback comment even branded me a 'SEGA lover'. That this should ...  Read the complete review

How many of you feel cheated? How many of you wish that there was at least one company in the video game industry we could rely on? SONY? We can't rely on them any more. They gave us the Playstation, and for that we are grateful. But now Playstation 2 has arrived and i for one have never been so dismayed by a console launch. Remember the ...  Read the complete review

The Dreamcast, Sega's best hope of capturing some of the video gaming market once again. The Dreamcast is having quite a hard time at the moment, especially with the recent launch of the PS2. Many people I know have put the dreamcast down, when the have not even delved into one of it's immensley engaging games, such as Metropolis street ...  Read the complete review

In one phrase....boring buyers. The machine came out early enough to get a good position in the "war" against the Playstation 2 but failed as soon as PS2 was launched. Why? Well, if it doesn't have Sony or the PS logo on it, most of Britain is reluctant to hand over the cash. The Dreamcast has some ...  Read the complete review
