OH WAIT! They were online! On the Saturn!

Sorry, I was in fanboy mode for a second. Seriously though, Sega owns.

...and I kind of like it. I never had it in the SegaNet days of yore, too busy with Quake III, but I ended up with a copy a couple years ago and just assumed it would suck without online play. Am I crazy for thinking that it's a good game even in single player?

It's pretty fun though, like if Sega made a Diablo clone. In one mission so far I got an AI teammate, are there any other missions like that? It seems like if I can't play with real people, AI stand-ins would be better than nothing. Also, I really doubt it, but is there any way I can get my Dreamcast online with DSL without having the broadband adapter? Running it through my computer somehow or something? There's still a private server up right? That would be sweet.

[QUOTE="skp_16"]Maybe because it's already a previous gen. PS3 will be a legacy platform on the launch day of PS4.-starman-

i'm pretty sure that's the exact reason. i bet when the PS4 comes out, they'll have to divide the forum into "Retro" and "Classic" (pre-2000 and post-2000 consoles).

hopefully that day is still far off. i'm still in the PS2 generation!

I don't think that's very likely. I mean, the PS3 will just be a Legacy Platform. As is the Legacy Platforms board covers consoles from 1968 (Magnavox Odyssey) to 2002 (Xbox/GCN). That's... 34 years.

Why is it "sad" that the PS2 is a legacy console now? It had a good run in the spotlight, and now it's fading away.

The only time this is really a sad thing, I think, is when a console goes away way too soon, like the Dreamcast, for example.

Personally, I think it's great. Now PS2s and games will be cheaper, and I can get a bunch of them. That's one of the reasons I love classic gaming so much. Goldeneye was just as fun when I paid $5 for it as it was when people were paying $70.

Well before this all blew up, I kind of get what YourChaosIsntMe is saying. A lot of times when something becomes super-collectible, the price starts to really outweigh the fun you can have with it. For example, when Playstation games are worth a ton more when they're not the greatest hits version. IMO, anybody who cares enough to pay more than like $5 more is into gaming for the wrong reasons and also most likely a moron. Or some Saturn games, yikes! It's the same situation with the Virtual Boy, kind of. Like, it's more money than its worth. On the other hand, I guess I've bought expensive Saturn games, played them, and then once I was done re-sold them for about the same price. You just have to take care of it. I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of people do this, so you could do it with a Virtual Boy for sure.

Buy it, play it... feel the suck, then sell it to some other poor misguided SOB.

Yeah, it's obvious to me and everybody else that you need a Dreamcast immediately.

After that I'd get a Saturn, then an Xbox.
