Sega Dreamcast Era

Lets talk Dreamcast for abit alright, on September 9 1999 Sega released the Dreamcast and I gotta say it was very different then most gaming consoles. It was the first to have onlineplay there controllers were alot bigger then the Saturn and Genesis controllers, having such titles like Sonic Adventure The House of the Dead 2 Space Channel 5 and others Dreamcast was an success for alittle while. But little as consumers know that the Sony Playstation 2 was on the way a year later Dreamcast was having a very tough time even in Japan,it was a shocker but they will still release games like Shenmue along with Vitrua Fighter series. But lets not knock Dreamcast down even though it was before its time like I said it was one of the first to have a built in modem to have onlineplay and that was amazing especially in the year 1999 way before next gen consoles came out. During E31999 i believe they show the playstation 2 and everybody faces drop because of how powerful the PS2 was and showing off games like Madden Tekken and others but the thing that makes playstation 2 so wonderful is that it was the first console to have a DVD player and that was a big deal at the time you see in stores people showing movies using the Playstation 2 DVD player. All i can say is that Dreamcast was a good console for its time but Sony shut them out even still consumers still bought the console but games just sat on store shelves then the word got out that Sega was not making hardware anymore but just software come to find out that it was all true we all know Sega still remains one of the top names in the industry.
