    Dishwasher: Dead Samurai is one awesome game. I haven't played more than the demo version, but I loved every moment of it. I hear it gets a bit tedious at the end, but I'd gladly play through it.

    As for the one indie game, make it I made a game with zombies in it (Don't feel like spelling it right). Awesome, awesome game, especially if you have a friend or two to play some co-op with. Holy crap that game gets intense.

    Jet Grind Radio is coming to XBLA as well as many more Dreamcast titles, but JGR is the only one that is pretty much confirmed. My bets are on Power Stone and Shenmue. I also hope that they put on Sonic Adventure 2, I dont even remember how many times I replayed that snowboarding level at the beginning and how much time I spent raising my Chao.

    Me too dude. Remember the little games you could play with them on the VMUs? Ahhhh Dream Casts were well ahead of their time. I don't know what my obsession was with raising companion creatures in games (MAGs in Phantasy Star Online, Chao in Sonic, etc.)

    Alright thanks man!

    I'll check out Dishwasher's demo and if I like it, I'll pick it up.

    For sure I'll get I made a game with zombies in it and convince another friend to abondon Reach to play it with me ;)

    Dishwasher is one incredible game. I'm sure you'll like it. But it's 800 points... Wow, I'm retarded. Still, great game.

    If you don't have Dead Rising 2 or Case 0 yet, get Case 0. Pretty awesome prologue to one sick game.

    As for I made a game (Not gonna keep writing that title), it's offline only. Get a few friends to hang out and get a game going. Trust me, it's ridiculous.

    Chaos were awesome. Remember the "secret" Angel, Devil and Chaos ones you could unlock in SA2? Damn that took so long. I was at a friends house and we stayed up until about 5am completing the requirements, then fell asleep with the game running, woke up and there was our Chaos chao :) Good times.

    Oh Yeah! Good times. I loved the dreamcast, my favorite console ever. I don't know how many times I have searched eBay looking for a cheap one. It's so great how all of those games are being rereleased for cheap on the 360.

    Hell yeah I remember that! I loved the Devil Chao's world. The river of blood (or at least I thought it was Blood :rolleyes:) was so cool to me. hahahaha

    The angel one was pretty neat to. Man I miss that game now.

    Dude, if you find a cheap one, let me know where. I've been searching on Amazon, and the lowest I can find one for with all the cords and a controller is about $40. I'm more than willing to once I get some money together, and pick up a few games like Zombie Assault or whatever it was (basically a beat em up version of House of the Dead), Shenmue, Resident Evil 3, Marvel vs. Capcom 2 (much cheaper than on XBLA), Jet Set Radio, Crazy Taxi, and the list goes on. Such a shame it died out before it really got a chance to shine... Too ahead of its time, really.

    It really was. You need Phantasy Star Online, and Resident Evil: Code Veronica as well. I have a Dream Cast still :rolleyes:

    Though my brother abused the hell out of the discs and only a few games work. Namely Dave Mirra's Pro BMX! F*CK YEAH! The Dream Cast CD's didn't hold up well with scratches, and my brother is terrible with that shit.

    Dreamcast Rules! I still have mine too...

    I actually hooked it up not long ago while my xbox was getting fixed for its RROD....of course the graphics are not comparable to the 360 but played NBA and it was still amazing, and Sonic was badass, and Crazy Taxi, and Nights and Panzer Dragoon, alota good games on there

    Ha, dude, both of those that you mentioned (aside from PSO) are awesome games. I have Code: Veronica X for PS2 and Dave Mirra 2, and they're both sick games. I've put a crapload of time into Dave Mirra 2, even though I've made absolutely no progress (that's what the cheats are for ;)). And Code Veronica happens to be one of the freakiest games ever made, IMHO.

    Yeah, Dreamcast got shut down too early. A little more 3rd party support and we would have had one mind blowing console.

    You should probably know that Booch and I are both playing Phantasy Star Portable 2 pretty religiously right now, and any negative words towards the franchise are likely to be met with fierce resistance ;)

    ...are you in the UK? You said Jet Set Radio.

    Yeah, me and Booch got in that discussion... I'm planning to pick it up sometime if I like the demo (which I don't see why I wouldn't).

    I said Jet Set Radio? Ah, well, I was referring to Jet Grind Radio, but whatever :D. I've never played either (if they're the same thing or not, not sure). I've just seen and heard good things about it, and I've been meaning to give it a shot. And I was reading off your post.

    EDIT: Oh, it seems I did say Jet Set Radio... I had heard of it before, and I just assumed it was either a prequel or a sequel to JGR. Either way, still want to play it. And I'm in the US, seeing as I didn't answer your question the first time around.

    Yeah I know it as Jet Set Radio too, but I refer to it as Jet Grind Radio online just so people don't get confused. They're the same thing. Awesome game. I think it might have been the first use of cel-shading in a computer game.

    Are you an eBay kinda guy? Cause they have some great deals, you just have to be constantly watching and waiting for a good one. Ive seen objects go for like 20 bucks there, and then I'll see the same exact thing sell for like twice that. So as a seller, look for the low stuff.

    From what I see there now, here's one with 26 games for 50 bucks

    and here's one for 10 bucks right now with all cables and two controllers, ends in 22 hours. Damn, I might go for this one if the price stays like this.

    I dont know why, but I usually refer to it as Jet Set Radio even though I live in the US. I think it's because of Jet Set Radio Future, which I also had and I guess that confuses me.
