Dreamcast Collection Is A Joke

Sega clearly has no idea what their customers want - or even what they already have.

Yeah its not the most exciting compilation of titles you're ever going to see

christheredhead5551d ago

yah and a compilation would have been a better title for this game. its not that the games are bad its just when you say the words dreamcast collection you automatically think of some of the best titles the system has to offer. not to mention a few gamers already bought sonic and crazy taxi when they were released earlier in the year. kind of a poor selection for what games they went with.

I had all of those except Space Channel 5. Fun, but not great. I also heard a rumor that Crazy Taxi doesn't have the original soundtrack. GAWD I hope that's not true!

BTW, if they put Shenmue 1 & 2 on STEAM Dreamcast fans would be jumping all over it. Let's be hopeful!

It doesn't have the original soundtrack. That was the worst port i've ever been privy to. The soundtrack was scrapped and so were the original levels. They're TOTALLY different; and the graphics and controls are horrible compared to the original. The only thing that didn't piss me off was the price. I had PS+ and I got it two dollars cheaper.

yah i think there was a licensing issue with crazy taxi. they had to remove the original soundtrack and the ad placements like kfc.

LOL at the exclusion of Shenmue!

ChrisW5551d ago

Excluding Shenmue is no laughing matter! But he excluded it because he probably never played it.

They always pull a stunt like this. Save their best games until last. When Xbox live arcade launched you got shit like Frogger for about six months. Give you the oldest and lamest games first, well you're not going to buy them if they give you the awesome games first are you. If Sega gave you all their best games on this disk you would have no reason to buy any other games from them.

It makes good business sense, but it's a dirty thing to do to gamers. Holding back your best games is low.
