I just bought a dreamcast!!

[blueskies]

yeah, $30 was the cheapest for a like new quality game.. i don't really mind buying ONE game when I'm getting so many for free. I just didn't want any hassle, or have to constantly check the .nfo for 'where can I not go' directions.. pain in the ass really.

to bad you can't get the original disc for Half Life on the DC, seeing as it was a leaked beta and the game was never released.
SUUUUPPPEEEERRRR LOOOOOOONNNNNNGGGGG LOAAADDDINGGG SCREEENNSSS!!!!

not yet. I don't want to waste any cdr till necessary. I got an NTSC-U unit to pick up on WED. So I'll test those disks out on that one.


Edit: does it matter if I got ver 1.2 of utopia rather than 1.1?

Edit 2: All shenmue disks fit in 700MB disks.

yeah, i heard about that the file gets bigger and bigger each time you save right?
though can't you just erase the old save and make a new one each time in game(i don't have a VMU yet, damn slow ass mail...)

Yeah that's the bug! I grabbed it when it was a 0-hour thing and starting playing it and wondered what the hell was going on when my VMU kept filling up lol. I don't know about the deleting the old save and making a new one in game, I've never read anything about it and never actually thought to try that! I've never actually played the PC version so can't tell you if it's the same or anything but it is a damn good play, really enjoyed it. Have gone back to it a few times. The graphics are outstanding, specially considering it's a humble DC!

Alcohol burns the Utopia images just fine, I did one for someone recently (the Dreamcast must be making a comeback, everyone seems to buying one at the mo!). It sounds more like you've got a bad image. Try grabbing it from a different site. Did you get the Gameshark image from the same place? I'm not sure about the legality of the Utopia disc, I don't think it uses any copyrighted code but I think it uses the copyrighted bin file, so I won't link to it here but there's loads of places with it.

 

[Bloodgod]

^ NM. 120 is being a bitch. Think I'm gonna try bootdreams. IF it doesn't work I'll just buy a gameshark

*Sidenote* My DC is NTSC-U. Previous owner just set the language to JPN. Also the bottom says NTSC-U

 

[Bloodgod]

good 4 player game that's not Sports on the DC is what?

exclude power stone and bomberma

 

[TrolleyDave]

Either of the Powerstone games are pretty fun when 4 player.

 

[Armadillo]

I liked playing propeller arena 4 players, was fun.

 

[wolffangalchemist]

just got my VMU today and a second controller for trading in some junk at a locally owned game store.
so long as it's a normal sega brand VMU not a generic brand one you can delete the Half Life save file from it with the vmu's on screen menu and then pop it back in to create a new save file)after loading up the previous save of course..

 

[Bloodgod]

picked up second unit today ($45). didn't really need a second unit,but I figured I'd buy it cause it was bundled with alot of controllers and VMUs. If I bought them separately from eBay. I would have paid

3VMUs $20-24
3Controllers $9.95ea (29.85)

Sure I saved a few $. But eBay didn't offer me a free second unit with random games. =) and the great part about my purchase..... one of the Memory card is one of those 4 in 1 cards. So it had 1600 blocks (200ea). Also one tremor pack (rumble)
