You know why it died ? Take a look at yourself and imagine you are bashing the DC instead of the GC.....

IMO The DC died due to the simple security method used to protect games, what a dream (no pun) boot from a boot disk stick your copy of a game in the CD drive and away you go. No warrenty problems, no soldering irons etc. I remember going to computer shows when and seeing DC games at 4 for £10. No one would continue to develop in this market.

But MSR rocks...Thankfully PGR on XBOX is somewhere close...

Sorry but if you know what your doing you dont even need a bootcd and the DC games could only be backed up by getting a cable which attachs your DC to PC as the CDs for the DC were 1GB. I think they were designed by Yamaha

God this is the latest reply ever but I just for a laugh tried to go online on Quake 3 on the dreamcast,

Guess what? It worked!

Apperently it uses gamespys Q3 list, and since PC gamers can play againest DC owners, theres plenty off games,

I think i might go back on in a while....
