    Default Dreamcast titles finally coming to XBLA & PSN!!

    With upgraded resolutions, trpohies/achievements, online leaderboards, and surround sound - Beginning with Crazy Taxi and Sonic Adventure!

    http://www.joystiq.com/2010/06/10/dr...bla-this-year/

    When I can finally retire my disc of Jet Grind Radio, I can die a happy man. I'm honestly amazed the game still even plays. And seriously - imagine playing JGR on the 360's controller, or a dualshock 3 - It'll be like heaven, not having a giant contoller, weighed down by a jump pack and a VMU.

    And a re-release of PSO has to be in the cards.... It would sell like hotcakes.

    A PSO rerelease that was patched to prevent cheaters, in HD, with some new weapons thrown in.... omg that would be amazing.

    Maybe if we're lucky they'll give us a port of Ikaruga or Rez!

    Shenmue 2 might finally get a proper North American release.

    And right now, I'm getting glorious visuals of playing Power Stone 2, in HD, online...

    Shenmue 2 came out on the XBox....why is that not a proper NA release?

    And isn't Ikaruga already on XBox live?

    But yes, I would love a power stone 2 release as that would drive down the price for the actual dreamcast game hopefully.

    I can't quite put my finger on it, but the Xbox version felt soulless.

    It really just felt like it belonged more on the Dreamcast. But that's just me...

    Then I suggest that you just don't like the game. It's the same game and any differences are minor (There's an excellent pictorial guide out there showing differences that were made). I doubt a downloadable version of the Dreamcast title would be any better for you.

    Sonic Adventure doesn't come as a surprise, I thought that had been confirmed ages ago. But it's nice to see Crazy Taxi coming and to hear that more games are in the works.

    It's wishful thinking because the car and music relicensing would make the cost prohibitive, but I'd love to see Metropolis Street Racer get a rerelease.

    I hope Crazy Taxi has it's original soundtrack by the Offspring and Bad Religion instead of some new crap.

    Also hoping Jet Grind Radio is next after CT and SA.

    I wonder how much these are gonna cost?

    Phantasy Star Online 1, 2(GC,) and Blue Burst get a XBL and PSN release with no monthly fees. I don't care if you have to buy all three seperate. I would buy them.

    Power Stone 2 Online

    Powerstone 1 and 2 are on the PSP and playable against anyone through adhoc party.

    CT needs Offspring. Srsly. Sonic Adventure will kick assets.

    Very much so, yes. I already have "bought" the XBLA's Ikaruga and Marvel vs Capcom 2 (which sorta counts as a DC game).

    Why won't Sega just slap 6-8 of these on a DVD and release it as "Sonic's Ultimate Dreamcast Collection" for $60? You think this is all part of some grand scheme to extend the life of the 360 with last-gen titles? Much like how PS1 games are on the PSP?

    Crazy Taxi was one of the first DC games ported to the PS2 back after the DC left the market... nine years ago. My, how time flies.

    Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection for some stupid reason has no online support. If Sega was to release the games on disc, I'd like to see the games have online support such as multiplayer, etc. I'd also like a rerelease of Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection with online support. Tons of games support player servers. Why is this not an option?

    If Microsoft and Sega had reconciled on that online play or not debate, maybe we would have been able to play dreamcast discs on an xbox a long time ago....

    Because Sega is lazy and it's just some fairly featureless emulator on a disc. It should also have more than three savestates and rewind and fast forward, but it doesn't. Sega has never really gotten the whole emulation thing done properly.

    Why would the old Genesis Sonic games need online support? Some games are perfectly fine offline.
