    How many games do you own for the Dreamcast?
    About 40 or so. Charge N Blast and Zombies Revenge are next, along with a few more imports. I'll probably be satisfied somewhere in the 50's. Almost there.

    When did you get your DC?
    2001 a few months before I got my first PS2 (2002) and a little more than a year before a GC (end of 2003).

    What made you decide to get a DC?

    I wanted one since it launched, but I had to wait for financial reasons. Turned out alright. I saved much by waiting.

    What was the first DC game you played?
    Soul Calibur

    What was the first DC game you owned?
    Crazy Taxi/Soul Calibur/Jet Set Radio/Virtual-On

    How many controllers do you have?
    2 OEM, 1 standard type 3rd party, an Arcade Stick, 4 Fighter Pads (3rd party controllers with 6 face buttons), 2 Lightguns

    What are your favorite DC games?
    I consider my collection to be my favorites. Hard to pick only a few.

    What's the worst DC game you've played?
    Draconius?

    What are your favorite multiplayer games?
    Gauntlet Legends, Power Stone 2, GigaWing 2, Tennis 2k2, Chu Chu Rocket, Worms...
    Anything 4p and fun!

    What's your favorite DC find?
    Under Defeat LE and Trigger Heart - both together at the same time.

    What's your favorite game that you got for free?
    Never been given a DC game that I can recall.

    How often do you play your DC?

    About as often as anything else (Wii/GC, PS2, Genny, TG16/PCE, NES & SNES). It's equal with the mainstays. But, less then DS/GBA.

    Do you have a favorite memory centered around the DC?
    The night the family stayed up all night playing 4p games. The sun was rising before we knew it.

    355 - including a complete US set (minus the case for Sonic Adventure LE)


    When did you get your DC?

    January 2000 - the local game store across the street from where i worked had a used DC, but instead of selling it at a discount, they swapped in a clear case, modded the system to play imports and sold it for the standard going price of 199. That was what i bought


    What made you decide to get a DC?

    Demos and friends that had imported the system. The DC got me back into video games. in 1999, i was a passive playstation owner with only a handful of games


    What was the first DC game you played?

    Soul Calibur import... then for fun, the shop employee put in soul edge in the next kiosk over and we laughed for half an hour at the difference between the DC and the "pixelstation"


    What was the first DC game you owned?

    The system was bundled with import copies of chu chu rocket and pen pen triicelon



    How many controllers do you have?

    I have at least seven standard controllers in various colors, 2 keyboards, 1 mouse, 1 official fishing rod, 1 third party fishing rod, 1 official maracas, 1 third party maracas, 1 wheel, 2 mad catz guns, 1 import gun, 1 import keyboard, 1 import mouse... im probably missing something


    What are your favorite DC games?

    Capcom fighters, 2D shooters, Soul Calibur, Space Channel 5, Phantasy Star online, Crazy Taxi, Dynamite Cop, House of the Dead 2, Mr Driller, Virtua Tennis more



    What's the worst DC game you've played?

    Sega Smash Pack was a huge letdown, the sound emulation was inexcusable



    What are your favorite multiplayer games?

    Virtua Tennis, Chu Chu Rocket, Fighters



    What's your favorite DC find?

    My modded-for-imports system



    What's your favorite game that you got for free?

    I have some burned import games, but i dont think that counts



    How often do you play your DC?

    I have a five-month-old, so i do not play many games these days, i do have a dc in my living room, hooked up to my HD set through the VGA box

    First off, Wow. Out of all of my systems, the one I would love to have a complete US catalog for is my Dreamcast. Second would be the Atari 2600. Nice job getting them all!

    I was going to mention this as well! I had passed on all the overpriced early- to mid-90's systems and had jumped into the "new" world of PC modem gaming. I would stay up til 2 am playing Hexen and Doom with my friends over our phone lines. Then the Dreamcast commercials began to pop up and I knew I wanted one and it did NOT disappoint! I've been a console gamer since that day.

    How many games do you own for the Dreamcast?
    Hmm, i'd guess somewhere between 60-70.

    When did you get your DC?
    I got my first one in maybe 2003.

    What made you decide to get a DC?
    Many cool games I wanted to play.

    What was the first DC game you played?
    Soul Calibur, I think.

    What was the first DC game you owned?
    Damn good question. I think maybe Gunbird 2.

    How many controllers do you have?
    10 or so. I collect LE DC systems so I have the pack-in controllers for each of those. Off the top of my head I have: Divers DC (x2), Pure Black, Silver, Pearl Blue, Biohazard Claire, Hello Kitty Pink, Hello Kitty Blue - each of those come with one controller, plus I have two controllers for my original white one.

    What are your favorite DC games?
    Tough. I would say Under Defeat, Zero Gunner 2, Skies of Arcadia, Power Stone, Border Down. I also like many of the sports games.

    Only free game I can think of is SF III: W Impact

    How often do you play your DC?
    Pretty often. When I am in a gaming mood I'd say a few times a month. I'll frequently fire up the Divers DC as I don't need to set anything up, just put in a game and go.

I kept getting stuck at the first loop de loop in the demo because I didn't realize I had to hold "up" to make it through, but I had a blast anyway!

    Do you have a favorite memory centered around the DC?
    Street Fighter Alpha 3 - It was 2 vs 1, me being the one. My Ken vs their Cammy and (can't recall). I take a huge pummeling, and then fight my way back - all three of us have exactly two to three regular hits left. From left to right, from the left corner, it was Player 3, me, and then Cammy from a small distance. Me and the 3rd person were trading ticks, and when we got down to our respective final blow, player 2's Cammy leaps into her Super. I basically said "SCREW IT" and did a 2-in-1 low round house into Ken's Standing Uppercut Super to kill of P3 and take the loss from Cammy.

    Instead, I low round house and kill P1, and for whatever reason, Ken AUTO-TURNED into his Super, and smacked and killed off Cammy in one move. All three of us drop controllers going "NO WAY!!" "NO F_CKING WAY!" and hopped about the room trying to understand what happened. Was bleeping brilliant!
