Steering wheels for racing games is a concept I want to like so much, but I always do better with the analog stick on the standard controller.

Picked up Dino Crisis on eBay for below market value. It's so odd that a later DC release like Dino Crisis doesn't support VGA natively. But I guess the switch trick is better than nothing.

Cheers! Yeah, it really is. Even though it's slow and old-hat to everybody, for me it still feels like wizardry, haha! It would have blown my mind back in the day.

And yeah, gotta brush up on some games and I'll jump on with you sometime. What games do you tend to gravitate toward? And what country do you live in, just so I can rough up some timeslot's for myself :)

I mostly play.. Quake 3 Arena, Max Pool, 4x4 EVO, Alien Front Online and PSOv2..

I have Chu Chu Rocket too.. but I dont play it much.. only a couple of times so far..

also.. I have PBA Bowling.. but it doesnt work online with the router I have.. oh and I burned a copy of Starlancer for testing purposes but that also doesnt work with my router...

I think Worms will be the next game I try.. most likely ill be burning a test copy to see if it works for me online before I buy an actual one

at some point Ill get Toy Racer too.. since I have a BBA and its one of the games that BBA works with...

Tetris is a low priority for me but it is pretty popular so if youre into it you should get one of those ASAP too!


Im in the US.. east coast..

weekdays Im usually around from 8 or 9 Eastern till Midnight or so.. Weekends Im around pretty much all day and night on and off unless Im going away somewhere...

hurry up and get some games yo..!

It came with 3 light guns. One is the second player one that connects to the first one. 3 controllers and all power supplies.


You are missing the Master System converter on top of that 32X :twisted:

I recently (Again.) Sorry if this is double posting. Bought another copy of Time Stalkers / Climax Landers along with a copy of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1. I really like Dreamcast games.

Awesome! Well, I'd love to give Quake III Arena and Alien Front Online (which I've found a lot of fun even in single player) a go. I'm really digging Phantasy Star Online (offline) at the moment, but I think I'm only level 7 or something, haha. 4x4 Evo would be rad, because I love my racing games (as you know), the game is fun, if a bit average on your own. I've got burnt copies to use until I buy them, so yeah, I'll get some practice in and jump online when I get a chance. I'll work out some times based on your schedule and go from there - cheers!

I just ordered a Alien Front Online + Mic combo on eBay. I've been having fun with a burned CDR of it lately, and now that my DreamPi is set up, I thought I might start collecting the games I can enjoy online. It's so weird, I'm not usually an online-play kinda guy, but the DC community seems really amazing and welcoming, and I love that.
