Sega Dreamcast: Marvel Vs. Capcom
February 9th, 2009 by Sean R.
This 2D fighter for the Sega Dreamcast pits an odd assortment of Capcom favorites and Marvel superheroes.
On the Marvel side you have Spiderman, Captain America, Venom, War Machine, Hulk, Wolverine, and Gambit.
On the Capcom side, the motley crew includes Ryu, Zangief, Chun Li (Street Fighter 2), Captain Commando, Strider, Morrigan (Darkstalkers), and Mega Man.
Each player chooses two fighters in this tag team game, not including the additional “guest stars” you can call upon, and this game has every guest star except Charro! Read the rest of this entry…
Sega Dreamcast: Mr. Driller
January 17th, 2009 by Luke C.
Mr. Driller for the Dreamcast is a strange little puzzle game that has spawned a series of niche titles.
The first thing you’ll notice when you start up Mr. Driller is that the entire game looks like candy. The main character is dressed in baby blue and a pastel pink, and the blocks through which he drills wouldn’t look out of place in a pack of Starburst. The sound design has the same aesthetic as the visuals.
Don’t let the kiddy look confuse you, though. Mr. Driller is one the hardest, most unforgiving puzzlers out there. Every block you destroy could potentially set off a chain reaction of falling and disappearing blocks; it’s amusing when you’re on top of the falling blocks, but can be terrifying when you’re in the middle of the pile.

Sega Dreamcast: Capcom Vs. SNK
January 15th, 2009 by Sean R.
Back in 2000, SEGA unleashed yet another fantastic 2D fighter: Capcom Vs. SNK which is just as good, if not better than Marvel Vs. Capcom 2.
The 25+ characters are taken from Capcom’s Street Fighter series and SNK’s King of Fighters games.
The thing I like about this game is that all of the fighters are human, and the combat is mostly hand-to-hand. The Marvel Vs. Capcom games are flashy, but all the projectile, flying, and over-the-top attacks get to be a bit much. Read the rest of this entry…
Sega Dreamcast: Power Stone
January 7th, 2009 by Sean R.
Games like Capcom’s Power Stone exemplify why hardcore gamers and retro game collectors love the Sega Dreamcast console so much.
Power Stone is a breath of fresh air in a tired 3D fighting genre, brimming with innovative ideas and wild arcade action.
It’s difficult to believe this was an early Dreamcast game, because few fighting games have surpassed it in terms of graphics and gameplay.
Power Stone pits two warriors in close-quartered environments like a factory, courtyard, or pirate ship.
The attractive battlegrounds are the ideal size so the characters can move around freely but not wander too far apart. Read the rest of this entry…
Sega Dreamcast: Crazy Taxi 2
January 4th, 2009 by Sean R.
Crazy Taxi 2 for the Sega Dreamcast is a lot like the original game, only with new scenery and a couple other minor upgrades.
That’s fine for people who didn’t play the first game, but for Crazy Taxi veterans this is awfully familiar.
This time the action takes place in New York City, but except for less hills and the addition of a large bridge, the scenery really doesn’t look a whole lot different from the first game. Read the rest of this entry…
Sega Dreamcast: Marvel Vs. Capcom 2
December 2nd, 2008 by Sean R.
The first Marvel Vs. Capcom for the Sega Dreamcast wasn’t all that great, but this one is truly awesome.
First of all, there are an incredible 56 playable characters! You get all your favorite Marvel, Street Fighter, and Darkstalker characters, plus a few surprises like Jill from Resident Evil.
The quality of the gameplay is sensational, with smooth, clean animation and breathtaking graphics. Some of the amazing backgrounds even feature 3D polygon graphics this time around. Read the rest of this entry…
