The Dreamcast turned nine years old today, and I thought it'd be a cool idea to celebrate with a survey.
The questions:
How many games do you own for the Dreamcast?
When did you get your DC?
What made you decide to get a DC?
What was the first DC game you played?
What was the first DC game you owned?
How many controllers do you have?
What are your favorite DC games?
What's the worst DC game you've played?
What are your favorite multiplayer games?
What's your favorite DC find?
What's your favorite game that you got for free?
How often do you play your DC?
Do you have a favorite memory centered around the DC?
____________________________________________
How many games do you own for the Dreamcast?
18. The most recent addition is Blue Stinger.
When did you get your first DC?
I bought a white DC in September 2007 for $20, which is the first one I've ever had.
What made you decide to get a DC?
While I had some interest in the DC, I never thought too much about adding one to the collection until 2007. A few months before I got my DC, a friend of mine included Crazy Taxi 2 as a bonus in a trade we had made. Then, after getting a new copy of Dave Mirra Freestyle BMX for a quarter at an FYE in August, I knew it was time.
What was the first DC game you played?
Crazy Taxi, at a friend's house during the system's heyday. A few months later, he offered to sell me his system and the game for $40, but I didn't have the money at the time.
What was the first DC game you owned?
Crazy Taxi 2.
How many controllers do you have?
Three (all first party - two white, and one blue). I'll eventually get a fourth.
What are your favorite DC games?
Crazy Taxi 1 and 2, 4x4 Evolution, Bangai-O, Ikaruga, Hydro Thunder, Soul Calibur, 18 Wheeler, and Chu Chu Rocket.
What's the worst DC game you've played?
Sno Cross Championship Racing. I liked the track editor, but poor controls ruined the rest of the game.
What are your favorite multiplayer games?
I haven't played that much multiplayer yet, but so far, I like Soul Calibur and Gauntlet Legends.
What's your favorite DC find?
Getting StarLancer for a quarter was cool, even if it's missing the back insert.
What's your favorite game that you got for free?
Crazy Taxi 2.
How often do you play your DC?
Unfortunately, it isn't hooked up at the moment. It's been a few months.
Do you have a favorite memory centered around the DC?
Staying up late and playing Crazy Taxi 2 after I got my DC.

God, I love the Sonic Adventure games. It was worth putting up with crappy fetch quests for those fast stages (as well as the shooting missions).

So here's to you Mrs. Robinson. People love you more- oh, nevermind. |
