    I still play the Dreamcast through VGA with a PSX controller adapter, Is it really worth it for people with that setup? apart from PSO and the other online compat titles. What would be good would be some English translations on the majority of jrpg's we didn't get. Also KOF 99 dream match, which is KOF98 with 3d backgrounds, never got this to work through VGA.

    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.

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

    I wonder how much these are gonna cost?
    CT needs Offspring. Srsly. Sonic Adventure will kick assets.

    this is a great move for sega-they'll make some money and get stuff bought and played that wasn't by a lot of people who never played/bought a dreamcast. I will buy many/all of these titles because they are great and to support sega (here's hoping shenmue 1 and 2 see a release with perhaps some improvements) this could allow for future titles such as shenmue 3

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

    Maybe Propeller Arena will get a real release, with functioning online play and all.

    This is a great idea.

    Otherwise, I'm mostly neutral the idea. No 360 or PS3 here and I have a nice line-up of Dreamcast systems so pardon Propeller Arena, which kicks serious ass, I don't have much interest but perhaps if more exclusive DC titles make it out, it should be a worthwhile affair with those who don't have the means to use a real Dreamcast.
    Whaddya mean invalid parameters?!

    This is very cool! Hopefully the games will be cheap, like under $10?!

    No Offspring and Bad Religion in Crazy Taxi. Sorry.

    -------

    http://xboxlive.ign.com/articles/109/1096446p1.html

    What won't be there? The Offspring and Bad Religion. SEGA couldn't pull off the licensing, so it replaced the classic "Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!" of the Offspring's "All I Want" with a random smattering of punk bands. It's a crushing disappointment for sure (more so than the loss of the Kentucky Fried Chicken and Pizza Hut licenses) and may be a deal-breaker for some. Crazy Taxi and the Offspring go together like Sex and the City. You could always turn down the music and put an Offspring album on your MP3 player of choice.

    Prop Arena would be really nice to see after all this time (officially, that is). Of course, it too had liscensed music, but since it never came out people are not as attached, I'm sure. Half of it was made for the game, too, so that helps.

    Meh, since CT doesn't have the original music I'll be passing.

    Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection isn't just Sonic games. The Sonic games are the worst of the bunch in my opinion. Games included though are the Streets of Rage series, Altered Beast, and Golden Axe series that I like to play multiplayer.

    The only time a friend and I can play multiplayer on those games is whenever we're hanging out. I have Streets of Rage 1, 2, and 3, for Genesis(just got them in a lot a couple weeks ago) and the Sega Genesis Collection for the PS2. One friend owns Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection. It's not like I'm going to go over to someones house just to play the games. Even though there's not too many multiplayer games on it, the ones that are on it are still good games.

    I own Sega Genesis Collection for the PS2, but doesn't include Streets of Rage. Might as well pick up the PSP version and could atleast play the ones included multiplayer through adhoc party.

    Not a big loss.

    And not much of a surprise. They've been changing it the last few times it was rereleased. The PC and PSP ports of it both have a different soundtrack and they're the most recent examples of the game.

    I'll be using the custom soundtrack feature. Never liked the original soundtrack and I doubt I'll like the new replacement. I'll be playing the game to classic Sega music like Magical Sound Shower now.

    This might be a deal breaker for me. Crazy Taxi without the Offspring just isn't Crazy Taxi to me.

    I'm all over this if and when PSO gets released. That game consumed so much of my life back in high school.

    I can't see them doing PSO when the 360 Universe servers are still going strong. That said, if they did, I'd be getting it day and date. Otherwise, not a lot of interest aside from Propeller Arena or other unreleased games with multi-player potential. I may bite on one or two games if there are avatar awards comparable to those on After Burner Climax. Still, nice to see that these will be introduced to a new audience who isn't lucky enough to have a sweet DC VGA setup.
