Default Who remembers Dreamcasts(game console)

Just found one in my spare room which i thought the loft installation people nicked years ago


Ok its nothing from the 60-70s but still rare and not on sale anymore.










AND the two best games that were "must haves"



Shenmue was awesome for its time

Will have a go later on the 32" tv if ive got time to set it up

Metropolis Street Racer was the first Project Gotham really. The sequel to that game was the first PGR on the XBOX

Shenmue was spectacular too. The follow-up not so good

yep, walk anywhere you like, do anything you like, speak to anyone you like etc, the graphics were very very good too, and still look pretty good today
