Skies of Arcadia - JRPG - My favorite game on the console Giga Wing 2 - SHMUP - 4 player shoot 'em up Cannon Spike: Multi-directional shooter from Psikyo and Capcom in the same fashion as Smash T.V.

Hm, it depends on what you are into.. Here's a bunch that stood out to me (not including imports): Shmups: Giga Wing series, Mars Matrix, Gunbird 2, Bangai-O Sega Arcade stuff: Crazy Taxi, Zombie Revenge, Dynamite Cop First/Third-Person shooters: Quake III Arena, Outtrigger, Unreal Tournament Light gun shooters: Virtua Cop 2 (on the Sega Smash Pack), House of the Dead 2, Confidential Mission, Death Crimson OX Survival Horror: Resident Evil: Code Veronica, D2 (I suppose this falls into this genre), Illbleed (likewise with this one) Role-Playing: Traditional JRPG--Skies of Arcadia, Grandia II; Some also really like the Evolution series; Action-role playing/adventure: E.G.G. - Elemental Gimmick Gear (similar to Zelda in many ways), Record of Lodoss War (Excellent Diablo/roguelike-style); Racing: Tokyo Extreme Racer series, Daytona USA, Metropolis Street Racer, Speed Devils, Vanishing Point, F355 Challenge; Everything else: Sonic Adventure series, Tony Hawk series, Super Magnetic Neo, Ecco the Dolphin: Defender of the Future, Power Stone series, Shenmue; There's probably a whole lot more.. The Dreamcast is an excellent system. ![]() By the way, look into homebrew. There are some good emulators for the system, and there are some cool source ports of '90s PC games like DOOM and Heretic.

The Nomad soul i think had a different main title in the US but its really good mixes RPG FPS and fighting games also Jet grind radio is very addictive if you like puzzle games definately pick up bust a move 4 and Dino Crisis is a decent survival horror in the Resident Evil style if you like Resi, DC is a must play. Sonic adventure 2 is kinda love hate because the eggman/tails missions weren't everyone's cup of tea. Sonic adventure 1 is on PSN now so it might be cheap at the moment I havent checked. V rally 2 is really good on multiplayer and Phantasy Star Online still has private servers. woah sorry for going on I hope Im as helpful as i am annoying lol. |

Omikron (The Nomad Soul) is the one you are thinking of.

The Typing of the Dead is really fun, kind of educational, and that special Dreamcast brand of WTF. It's surprisingly inexpensive to get it complete with the keyboard. |
So says Mr. Stewart.

Add Record of Lodoss War to the list for those that like awesome action-rpgs. I played it when it came out, but only for a bit. I busted it out last week and have clocked about 12 hours into it so far. Definitely a must-have from what I've played! |

Lots of good suggestions. I'll add Sega Rally to the list, and if you're up for hunting down tougher to find stuff, Tech Romancer is worth a look. Silly fun 3D fighter with an over the top anime feel to it. |

Shenmue 1 and 2, Crazy Taxi, House of the Dead (including Typing of the Dead!!!), Jet Set Radio ( Jet Grind Radio in North America), Sonic Adventure 1 and 2, Marvel vs Capcom 2. There are so many more great games for the Dreamcast. Enjoy your Dreamcast! |

Man...so many great games for the Dreamcast and so many more I've never heard of! I can't add anything that hasn't already been mentioned, but I'll definitely keep this thread in mind next time I'm picking through DC games. On a related note, what are the odds that we could get a private PGRF Phantasy Star server up and running? Man, that would be a blast. |

Not sure why I didn't list this earlier, but Gauntlet Legends. Love this game, and actually prefer it to the later Dark Legacy games. It's shorter (thankfully) and is more reminiscent of the original Gauntlet Legends arcade game in level design than the later Dark Legacy ports. |

Skies of Arcadia, Shenmue, House of the Dead 2 and Resident Evil. This are my favourite games on the system. I've played so many hours on the dreamcast and I loved every minute of it. |

I'm going to try avoiding the common suggestions like Shenmue (and if you're in the PAL region Shenmue 2 as well), Sonic Adventure, and Soul Calibur. Most of these are games I grew up with, so excuse any bias I may have. Looney Tunes: Space Race: Best non-Nintendo kart racer I have ever played, It was a lot of fun back when it first came out, it's still fun today. Floigan Brothers Episode 1: This is where my bias may get in the way. I admit this game had some pretty bad controls at times, but if you were a fan of the old fashioned cartoons like Tom & Jerry and Looney Tunes growing up, this has some humor of that sort thrown in it. It's okay, but the only reason I think I put it here was it's sentimental value to me. Definitely check it out if you can find it cheap though. Chu Chu Rocket: Extremely addictive puzzle game. D2: Awesome Survival Horror Blue Stinger: The first Survival Horror game on the system to my knowledge. Great fun, and it's cheap. |
