The Dreamcast was the little console that almost could.But despite it's 2/1 year life span in the United States and Europe it's one Sega's last consoles but it was still awesome.The Dreamcast had some great innovations.Out of the box you got a 56k Modem for Internet play with a Web Browser.It was one of the first consoles to really do well with online and make it fun.With games like Bomberman Online,NFL 2K1,Quake 3 and Phantasy Star Online.You could play with people who had their Dreamcast's hooked up to the Internet as well.Without it Xbox Live wouldn't exist.You also got a VMU in the Controller.Which was used for being a memory card but with interaction.The games were also very fun.Sonic had a great 3D start with Sonic Adventure,Shenmue is one of the most revoultionary games i've ever seen because of the so many things you could do in the game,Marvel vs Capcom 2 is one of the greatest fighters ever made.You have to check it out because it combinds Iconic Comic Book chracter's with Iconic Video Game Chracters.Samba De Amigo also made use of the Macraca Peripheal.Which made use of the musical game rythem game.Overall the Dreamcast is a fun console and it's brings back Nostalgic memories.Even though it got beaten by the Playstation2 it's still an awesome systemand worth checking out.It's Thinking...

What can be said than hasn't been said about the Playstation?It's the 3rd greatest selling Video Game console of all-time.It's behind the PS2 it's sucessor and Nintendo's Game Boy.Orginaliy the console was supposed to be a CD add-on for the Super Nintendo back in 92'.However the deal was canceled by Nintendo because Sony wanted the rights to Nintendo's famous mascots like Mario and Link.But Sony still had the CD attachement so they made a new compact CD consolecalled the Playstation and the rest as they say is history.The Playstation had excellent games and it was truley the first sucessful CD based console.Whatever gaming genre you were into the Playstation had some games you had to check out.Like for Platformers you had to check out Crash Bandicoot,Croc,Spyro and Ape Escape.The Playstaion also made RPG's popular in theUSAas well.With Final Fantasy Vii the greatest selling RPG of all time and my favorites Chrono Cross and Grandia.It also had some great Survial Horror games.Like Resident Evil,Silent Hill and Parasite Eve.Very scary games.Also Parappa the Rapper a great musicalrythem gameand Tony Hawk's Pro Skater my favorite Skatebording game of all time.Overall the Playstation is a great console I know most of you already own this console.But I just felt sharing my refections to the console.
