Today, SEGA released on iTunes and Amazon MP3 in Japan the original soundtrack albums of the Skies of Arcadia.
Beep, Beep. We're broadcasting live from the Dreamcast channel, and today's event is the best JRPGs on the Dreamcast.
Good picks but could've used some links to trailers also or screenshots
These remakes and remasters are must-haves in this next generation.
Gunstar Heroes was made by Treasure. I'm not sure if that IP actually belongs to Sega. If it does, the ONLY modern day developer that I think would do that game justice is Housemarque. Maybe Sega could collaborate with Sony to let them make a modern day Gunstar Heroes. I definitely think Shinobi and Afterburner need modern day remakes though.
I feel like there are stronger Sega IP's than some of the ones that were listed such as...
Vector Man
Comix Zone
Virtual On
Ranger X
Jet Set Radio
Landstalker
Eternal Champions
As hard as it was, the Shinobi remake that came out on PS2 was decent. But yes, a new remake would be great. Always loved that series.
The Sega Dreamcast was a system that had some really cool and innovative games. However, the console never had as much widespread appeal as the PS2 or Xbox.
I think outtrigger is really underrated as a game for the dreamcast. It was quite good for the time.
If I could take two consoles with me into the after life it would be the Snes and dreamcast.
If you like survival horror, i highly recommend D2. It’s really cool. Reminiscent of deadly premonition. Great atmosphere and music. Super campy and cheesy but unique. Just emulate it.
Now if only they would do a remake of the original and a proper sequel. That is the deal Nintendo should have made with Sega instead of 3 exclusive and bad Sonic games.
you know what would have been nice?
sega releasing more copies of the RPGs they made so people, namely me, could actually find a copy and they didn't up up for stupid money on ebay.
ever tried finding a copy of panzer dragoon saga?
the worst part of that one was giving away the first disc as a demo.
but then you can't find a bloody copy for love nor money.
what kind of business model is that?
it's like drug dealers giving out free samples to get people hooked than not actually selling the drugs.
is it any wonder they went out of the console business, make big expensive rpgs then hardly release any copies.
the modern equivalent of that tactic is to release their biggest games only in japan.
except sonic of course, but then they invariably suck.
they let us westerners have those, but all the good stuff, keep that for japan.
