[QUOTE="Mallus, post: 531521, member: 3887"] Great recommendation. While house-sitting this weekend, an old friend and I spent a day playing Dreamcast titles. It's the best {semi}next-gen system for multiplayer games, period. Virtua Tennis {or 2k2}, Powerstone 2, Giga Wing 2 and Soul Calibur made 10 hours sail right by... {didn't touch any of great 2D fighters. There not my buddy's cup of hot blood}. And its $50 bucks. I'm debating getting a spare {I'm using a launch-day system} for the inevitable day when mine breaks down. I'm definitely not a Sony fanboy. I never owned/played PS1, the first Final Fantasy I played was 10, and you know something, I'm glad I got a PS2. Huge library of games, some of which are truly exceptional. Many of which can be had for US $20.00. The reality of Sony's market share makes it a hard product to avoid. More games, and more games at a discount price point... And the whole malfunction issue is really not limited to PS2's. From what I understand, quality control for just about every piece of computer hardware is spotty --and again, its all about the low price-point. Any of you order a computer online, only to ship it right back because it won't boot straight out of the box? And knock on wood, my PS2 was a year old last month and its doing fine. [/QUOTE]
