Essential Dreamcast games

Racketboy has a nice roundup of Dreamcast games that have stood the test of time1.

DC

Whilst the DC ended up being a commercial failure for Sega, it's a much loved console for gaming aficionados and lists like these are great for fans to catch up on missed classics2. In case you're interested, my top 5 from that list are Ikaruga, Rez, Chu Chu Rocket, Bangai-O and Space Channel 5.


  1. As an aside, I'm quite pleased to be able to say that I own all the games mentioned bar two. [back]
  2. It's also worth mentioning that even with the games that have had sequels on other consoles, the DC originals are still superior to this day. In particular, the sequels to Jet Set Radio and Crazy Taxi had only a fraction of the charm of their predecessor. [back]
