Sam Kennedy from 1up has written an amazingly funny, and in some points even true, article about how similar the XBox 360 is similar to the old Dreamcast.
Call me an idiot, but I am still one of the persons that believe that the Dreamcast had great visuals, features and designed. If it were my call, it would be the #1 console even now.
Quick update: also from 1up, another article that gives 10 reasons why the XBox 360 will be successful where the Dreamcast wasn’t. Click here.
Got your reason right here: Peter Moore spearheaded the marketing.
Dreamcast was an awesome system and I think NFL NK1 is by far my favorite football game still today.
I think it’s a disservice to compare them on a quality level. No possible way will the 360 ever get as many innovative or impressive games. It just ain’t that type of system, nor does it have that kind of audience.
The Xbox has, and will remain, the gaming system of choice for all the non-gamer types. That’s why it has all the sports titles and first-person shooters that remain essentially the same game between every ‘different’ game in the series.
System of choice for non-gamer types? What is this system of choice you speak of for gamer types?
Dc was and still is one of the best designed innovative systems ever seen in the gaming market… my dc is still hooked up and i play it everyday. The 360 is just another hyped graphics extremely over priced next gen system so microsoft and bill gates can make more money
