I wonder if Sega is going to celebrate this...
They could maybe offer DCgames as downloadable content for the 360 and ps3^^
lol I'm just dreaming.

Wish I still had mine. DC was a good little console...

Looks like it has officially gained Retro status. Now AVGN can finally review the Dreamcast games that sucked like The Ring: Terror's Realm.

QFT.

But, some guys are releasing a brand new game for the great old warrior:

The Dreamcast’s 10-year anniversary just got a little more exciting. Redspotgames, a publisher that thankfully didn’t get the memo about the system’s demise, has just announced a new game for the Sega Dreamcast!
That’s right; Rush Rush Rally Racing will be hitting Amazon and eBay’s virtual store shelves this October for the low price of $22! I can’t believe I’m actually typing these words in 2009, but you can pre-order this Dreamcast game now via the publisher’s website.

Rush Rush Rally Racing is an old-school, 2D, top-down, arcade-racing game for up to four players. The trailer, which you can watch after the jump, boasts “No realistic backgrounds. No sponsored cars. Only fun, retro gameplay.†Who knows if RRRR will be any good or not, but the gameplay in the trailer does look pretty darn entertaining.

Here’s a list of features if you’re dying to know more about the game:
- Single-player grand prix mode with four difficulty levels
- Three multi-player modes to enjoy with up to four players
- Five race cars to choose from
- 10 Grand Prix race tracks
- 9 additional multi-player race tracks
- Awesome soundtrack by Black Device
- Autosave to VMU (any port, file uses just 2 blocks)
- Region free
- Rumble pack support
- Compatible with original Dreamcast pads, arcade stick, and third party controllers
- Supports PAL (50/60 Hz), NTSC and VGA displays
- Configurable controls and many other options
- Animated cut scenes
- Plus even more unlockable content!
- New: Online Highscore!

The greatest system in the world, whose legacy is carried on by the 360. :169:

Shenmue remains.... the greatest game the world has ever seen.

LOL ya rite about the 360 stuff. Sure, they keep stealing all their games to get the cheap win with fans but Keith! How dare you even compare the two!

I don't see how it's legacy is carried on by the 360... that's just ridiculous... SEGA is multiplatform... it releases on all platforms...
Shenmue was a good game with a lot of innovating features... but it can't be the greatest game... after all the sales weren't so amazing.
It's a game many people still love... but it's just a small piece of all gamers.
