Dreamcast Games you play Online: Trying them all

A thank you to the forum and the dreamcast community

Post by Retro-45 »

I’d like to start this off with I'm so glad I found this forum and the welcoming community. I cant express how much of an impact this site had on me for the past years. To making me more comfortable with being more social about hobby's (and in general conversation as well), online gameIng which I used to avoid like the plague, after my past experiences with newer games. And for opening a internet with learning the technical aspects of computers and the like.
I used to always kind of felt like a outcast regarding people in my generation and age range, when it came to hobby's, music, and internets. Until I found dreamcast then the site. I find it funny that my love for retro game and obscure video games would led me down this path to what I am today. Just a random forum about SEGA”s last home console, life sure is odd sometimes.

Thanks for the site and all the great people here I really appreciate it. And during hard times in personal life that left me stuck at home for almost a whole year of school. I don’t know what else to say. So here to more years of dreaming.

Sorry about the long, mess of a post such not used to writing things like this.

I have bought many consoles since the Dreamcast but nothing impressed me being they lacked that innovation and character the Dreamcast possessed, even though the technology currently surpasses it over the decades. Sega really made an unique console that did so much more than anything before it and greatly raised the bar for all future consoles and game developers.
