It may have come and gone without much fanfare but the Dreamcast is something that should be celebrated. So let’s look at 5 games that show why you should have owned a Dreamcast.
“As a reimagining of a classic 2D platformer, Rocket Knight remains one of my favourite modern examples of the genre so let's see why.” - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums.
The upcoming Cronela's Mansion will launch on Switch, NES, Game Boy and SNES, with the latter now set to receive physical cartridges.
Atari has acquired Intellivision. The company announced today that it had acquired its long-time rival, ending one of the original console rivalries, dating back to the 1970s.
Wow.... two of my earliest gaming platforms. All they need is Coleco to round things out.
This is like Nintendo buying SEGA.
Good piece of history here.
edit: I wanted to read it but the cookies pop up is stopping me.
This was just before my time. I do remember my mom's friend having one all dusty in her apartment back in the day.

People forget that console wars are part of the history of this industry. The console wars were started by competitive companies all the way back then and continued through Sega vs Nintendo, Jaguar/3DO/NeonGeo, and PlayStation vs Nintendo and Xbox.
These companies are across oceans and competing for the same business. These companies created the console wars, not crazy fanboys.
I had both. Snafu on Intellivision was addicting as hell. Also had Colecovision which had Time Pilot. Combat was probably my favorite Atari game and both Atari and Intellivision had similar games like Pitfall and Jungle Hunt. It’s been so long I don’t really remember which game I liked bettter out of those but I did play my Intellivision a bit more than Atari though I’m not sure why besides Snafu. That was 40+ years ago damn I’m old lol
I can't argue with this list, other than I HATED Crazy Taxi. Not that it was a bad game, it wasn't. I was just so TERRIBLE at it, I couldn't stand it. Sometimes you hate a game because it's bad and sometimes you hate it because you suck at it. Good list, though.
not a very good list and top 5 is too limited. atleast a top 10 would be better
Shenmue 1 & 2
Sonic Adventure 1 & 2
Power Stone 1 & 2
Skies Of Arcadia
House of the dead 2
Soul Calibur
Marvel Vs Capcom 2
SNK vs Capcom
and many others..
Shenmue was 2? and no grandia series? what the hell? LOL
My list:
Sonic Adventure
Phantasy Star
Virtual On
Grandia 2
Shenmue:)
Yes the list is very limited:)
Mine would be.
5 - Worms World Party
4 - Sonic Adventure
3 - Sonic Shuffle
2 - Sonic Adventure 2
1 - Shenmue 1 and 2
Capcoms power stone was great, I'd love it if Sega came out with next gen versions of shenmue, afterburner, crazy taxi and a new shinobi game
