Is it really as good as people claim it is?

Play it anon, it's cheap on steam, xbla or you could just burn a DC copy, hell you could probably emulate it if you have a half decent computer. Why ask strangers first? Make your own opinion.

Yeah, probably.

Penny Arcade praised it so I'm sure it's good. Or maybe that was Kolibiri

His writing style is very much extreme hyperbole, that doesn't really translate well to a more off the cuff podcast where he is talking as himself. He seems like a nice guy though.

I put around 30 or so hours into it when it was released on DC. It was also the first game I burned for DC since the ISO file was only 17MB and I was still on dialup.

Super amazing game. While I hated level 4 with a passion, levels 1,2,3 and 5 are all just amazing video game experiences.

Used to really like this guy, but after watching a few of his live streams, he seems pretty cucked after all.

>> No.3303883

>>3301049
No.
But it's still great and highly recommend it.

>>3301086
Why emulate it if you can (probably) pirate the Steam version?
Still though, give treasure money.

If a 16-year-old console isn't retro then what is, anon?

>> No.3306027

>>3306026
If I was in charge I'd ban all discussion of Sega and it's consoles. It's just as shitty and cancerous as it's fan base is.

Well, I doubt you'll ever be in charge with that attitude.
>>3306030
Does the classification of what is retro not change over time? You can't be suggesting that in 100 years from now the current generation of consoles won't be considered retro, right?

Janitors already ban Sega shit they don't agree with. Like /v/, this board too is a safe space for Nintodlers.

You should apply for janitor next time anon, I think you'd fit right in.

Don't have the time I'm afraid, I only pop on here once in a while to discuss dead genres like dungeon crawlers, beat-em-ups and occasionally other stuff that catches my eye.

He's probably referring to this thread, where pro-Sega shitposts got deleted but pro-Nintendo shitposts didn't:

And even the guy who called him out got his post deleted, I don't think the mods are "pro-nintendo". Australia has been crying all day long about the mods being against him though.

>> No.3306196

>>3306175
Still, regardless of yoru case with Australia, the janitors protecting that one post that blatantly shits on the Mega Drive like a fanboy shows there's some bias going on here.

>> No.3306209

>>3306196

I don't think the janitors are "protecting" anything, a bunch of shitposts were deleted, even ones that weren't about either Sega or Nintendo.

Do you have any other example? preferably on a thread without Australia-kun because it's a given that janitors will be deleting posts on a thread with him on it.

>> No.3306314

>>3306209
I've had posts deleted because they were deemed too "offensive".

Apparently talking like a sailor on /vr/ now is against the rules because it hurts certain posters' feelings.

irrelevant of your opinion the sticky says otherwise.

Also, the dreamcast TECHNICALLY doesn't have a built in internet capability, it just has a modem accessory that comes packaged with it :^ )
