Dreamcat Dizzy's gonna love it

Retro-Nerd · 25 April 2008, 20:35

Another R-Type copycat.

I'm looking forward to Alice Dreams or Rush Rush Rally:

It might be another shooter but it does look quite nice.

I've been looking forward to Rush Rush Rally Racing for quite a while now though.

EDIT: Should this thread really be in the News forum, seeing as it's not actually Amiga related at all?

Retro-Nerd · 25 April 2008, 20:49

Yeah, should be moved to Retrogaming.

Giana's Return looks nice too:

Well it's great to see people coming up with Dreamcast games that aren't shooters

Zetr0 · 26 April 2008, 02:17

Who cares? Last Hope was released on CD, iirc.

Well I dont think sega own the GDrom tech, they just bought exclusive rights to use it

One day after the Armageddon Sega will rise from the ashes and release DC 2

Sounds like an excuse for another hardware project to me.

It's good to see the DC scene so active - I may even be tempted to buy one...
...I must be the world's latest adopter:
Never invest in a platform until it's been abandoned for at least 5 years. Is the DC there yet..?

RCK · 26 April 2008, 15:58

What's the link of this news with Amiga world ?

adolescent · 26 April 2008, 17:47

Yes, should be retrogaming general.

I bought Last Hope... for the NGCD! I consider the DC too modern.

I play a lot of NGCD games with full speed and perfect graphics on my Dreamcast.

btw: The Dreamcast version of Last Hope is better.

adolescent · 27 April 2008, 17:59

@Retro-Nerd

But, I collect NGCD so whether another version is better or not a consideration. (I have all NGCD except Ironclad, and the only reason I don't have that one is because for $250+ I want to find a sealed copy).

BTW, are you sure it's perfect? How about the awful load times?

Some emulators don't even show the load screens!

Retro-Nerd · 27 April 2008, 18:06

Games like Metal Slug 1 & 2, Pulstar, Ironclad etc. runs fine on my Dreamcast. They probably have the same annoying load times like on real Neo Geo CD machines.

Unknown_K · 28 April 2008, 07:42

I don't think the dreamcast will ever die, it is just too popular. Makes me wonder why Sega killed it so quickly.

Perhaps because they worked with microsoft and microsoft have to launch the xbox ?

Graham Humphrey · 28 April 2008, 10:09

It can't have been that popular if Sega killed it off...? Certainly not "mainstream" enough, anyway.

turrican3 · 28 April 2008, 10:45

and the problem was that sony show intro sequence (mpeg) of playstation 2 games and said to everybody : "it's in game". And it wasn't, everybody wait for the ps2 and there was nothing to see, the games which exist on the two platform was often better on dreamcast.
Sorry sony fanboys
