The story about the Dreamcast's Failure starts off with Sega spamming new consoles and new releases such as the Sega 32 X, Sega Saturn, and Sega CD. Fans started not trusting Sega because they thought only about a couple of months after the Dreamcast gets released, there will be a new Sega system, so a lot of fans went down on Sega, also, because of a popular sports franchise agreeing not to work for Sega anymore because of all the stuff they keep on doing to their fans. When the Dreamcast released, a lot of more people bought the Dreamcast than expected, the rumor was that it would beat the PS2 even though that releases after two years of the Dreamcast. That makes the Dreamcast dead within two years. How did this happen? The Sony Playstation 2 was released two years after, and then the life and success of the Dreamcast was dying very early. But then, about a month before December, it was said that the Playstation 2 was not going to sell as much units as expected. So Sega, went in and thought that it was finally their chance of coming back up hill. But unfortunately, still nobody bought the Dreamcast, so Sega made crazy ideas like "If you sign up for Sega Net you get a free Dreamcast!" That didn't even work, so sadly, Sega's final system died terribly after the release of the Playstation 2. Although, I think that the Sega Dreamcast is actually better than the PS2.LetsGoPros
People really need to stop putting the Sega CD on their lists. Also, I am pretty sure despite strong sales in certain areas, it was barely known. I think it's more known withing the last few years then when it came out.

GBA. Both the DS and GBA had great libraries, but a lot of third-party DS games weren't all that enjoyable and first-party games were pretty much the bulk of the good ones. The GBA slot was also one of the DS's selling factors. The GBA had plenty of awesome games including DEMIKIDS :D and the Pokemon GBA games were the best around.Spinnerweb
DEMI KIDS? Have you ever thought of seeing a doctor? Naw, just kidding. Maybe it will be better if i replay it again then when I played it the last couple times.

Failure though it was, it wasn't a bad console. It had some games in full 3D (Sonic R), which even the PS1 didn't accomplish until Metal Gear Solid. It also had a lot of good rail-shooters like House of the Dead and Virtua Cop 2. The problem with the Sega CD, Sega 32X, Sega Saturn and Sega Dreamcast was first their timing (Sega CD and 32X were released when Saturn was already on its way, and Dreamcast was released in 1999 so it didn't fit into any generation) and the PlayStation and PlayStation 2, which killed the poor widdle consoles. :cry: :PSpinnerweb
Wait, the CD was not released when the Saturn was on its way, the CD was pretty sucessful. If they had actually made more focus on getting devs on board before releasing it, and made it a bit cheaper, it may have at least sold half of the total genesis sales. Well, till the 3DO came out.

While I'm personally more of a Genesis guy myself, both consoles have games that do feel dated. Though there are some that still hold up, like Chrono Trigger and Mario on the SNES, and Sonic and Gunstar Heroes on Genesis.ModeDude
Gunstar and SMW have not aged well at all save for maybe entertainment value for SMW and fast pace gameplay variety for Gunstar. They aged badly in every other aspect.

[QUOTE="BreakingDeath"][QUOTE="kidsmelly"]

If loving non-living objects is wrong. I don't want to be right.

kidsmelly

No one said "loving" non-living objects was wrong, just not to that extent. I love my Xbox 360, but that doesn't mean stick my valuables into the disk drive,

Have you given it a try. I mean Im sure they named it Xbox for a reason.

Dangerous experimentation.

[QUOTE="Tylendal"]Is this an actual increase, or only an increase in reported cases?BranKetra
Kind of a difficult question to answer, don't you think? Anyway, psychologists believe the best way to stop things like this is to prevent it from happening. Some say the best way to do it is by starting at childhood.

Well, I do believe that children should not get special treatment for these kind of things.

"This is a problem i believe, as much as many may not agree, be handled aggressively with the most severe punishments."

lol

let's just focus on senseless deterrence guys

no need to figure out why these kids are raping people in the first place!!

ghoklebutter
Maybe so, and maybe not, but one thing that should be done is repeating users should be severely punished. It's pretty much the same as physically harming someone when they didn't do anything by smashing them with a hammer or trying to run them over.

Well, each of them was only thirteen years old, which is well before the age at which the brain is fully matured (~25). They couldn't think as rationally as an adult.

Most likely this article from the Washington times should be online by tomorrow as it hasn't been put up yet for some odd reason. Eh. anyway, the following is a retyping, not all details will be typed, just the main core of the situation: "latest statistics show, that from 2010 mid year to the start of April 2012, there has been a very alarming increase in child to adult rape than the other way around. Usually, it was much more common for adults, mostly males, although females increased over the years of child sexual abuse, or child pornography, that still is 70% accepted to be wrong world wide, was becoming a problem. now the issue has been sliding down in the last 5 years pretty fast." says David Jaff, ex-VT professor. "But" he continues :what worries me, and make me fear the new mindsets of the current generation, is the very fast increasing of child to adult rape. Adding more detail, other members of the analysis teams had given their comments, some notable ones include: "There has been increasing reports about 12-16 year old males raping, and even some times killing then raping, woman in between the usual age rane of 33-78, but that's just the majority, there are also times when the woman are older or younger, even in the same teen age range." "Many kids are starting to have "Fascinations", with children younger then them, and recently, more so older woman. 18 all the way to much older around 70 or so. Some are even physically harmed or worse in the process." "We have found that 2012, we had a lot of cases near each other all around the nation and some reports around the world in certain countries, and has shown so far in 2012, that this year marks the point where it seems this practice of child to adult rape is becoming, dare i say it, popular." "Attacking and physically contacting defenseless or weaker females or even males for that matter, even for children, should have the same dire consequences." "In 2012, Girls doing these same actions, and some other tactics of unwanted contact, have also increase most alarmingly in the year 2012." "For around 4 or so years, this has gotten more and more of a problem. While unitl recently lots have generally wrote these off as rare, we have discovered that the numbers of these issues and the reported cases arounding them have increased 4x as much in 2010 from before, and 6x as much in 2012 starting from NOV 2011, to the start of April. This is a problem i believe, as much as many may not agree, be handled aggressively with the most severe punishments." Yeah, i do remember some news story about an older woman and a man being raped recently. However, this article ot my attention because apparently, this is actually more than a 3 times ever 4 year problem i thought it was. Looked up some cases in google, and yeah, there were quite a few. The worlds one crazy.
