 | On the whole - probably not. I only ever bought about 10 - 15 games for it. And about 3 were any cop.

 | the dreamcast has some quality titles, get it, and find somewhere you can get gdrom images,.. then it is a
 worthwhile purchase,.. if you can't be bothered going
 through all the searching to get games, then don't bother

 | they are worth their weight in gold. 
 you can play dreamcast games (downloadable from newsgroups),
 NES games, SNES games, Gameboy Games, Genesis games, Atari
 games, etc, etc.. all without a modchip.
 
 visit dcemulation.com for more information.

 | I'm a happy owner of a Dreamcast... but mine's busted, you can't keep the CD lid down unless you put something on it. I
 only bought a couple of games for it, Sonic Adventure and
 Resident Evil: Code Veronica. That latter is one of best of
 the series, you might have played it on PS2 anyway. There's
 some more good games, Shenmue comes to mind... but it died
 for a reason. It's no PS2. Pick it up anyway, there's some
 gems.
 
 I remember there was this GREAT looking 3-D Castlevania game
 that was due out for Dreamcast, but it got cancelled. :_-(

 | Shenmue, Jet Set Radio and Soul Calibur are all good reasons to get a Dreamcast, but theyre all a bit dated now, with
 sequels coming out on other platforms.

 | phantasy star online is solid! shenmue 2 is nice!  real nice!
 jet grind radio was kinda cool.
 crazy taxi is nuts, and Worms Armageddon is a must!
 
 Dreamcast really was an OK console, it just had SO many bad
 games and of course going out of business(?) for a
 while...blah....
 
 oh yeah, Skies of Arcadia was a reall good RPG for
 Dreamcast.  like the only good one.   Made good use of the
 VMU unit thingy.  Yeah.....

 | shenmue 2 is excellent. get the original as well. and if you haven't, buy soul caliber, sonic adventure and virtua
 tennis. the dreamcast, much like the underrated saturn, had
 some great titles in its short lifespan.

 | i've had three dreamcasts in my lifetime and every single one of the broke.  seriously, they seem to just die without
 warning, but a lot of the games are good, like phantasy star
 online and chu chu rocket.  although i think phantasy star
 online for dreamcast is overrun by hackers now.
