I get ridiculed by all my mates about my DC...

One has a DC, but has given up on it now he has GCN, but I have talked one into buying one simply cos of the homebrew/emu scene

He says he just needs to save the money.

I still dont belevie their is an aussie place that can be described as a "dreamcast hang out"...

Woah, Zickfun, I too am from Australia, and like, I am the only one in my school who has one, but a lot of my friends who own PS2s and Xboxs are not Anti Sega, infact most of the time they come round they enjoy a bit of Powerstone 2, Quake 3, Soulcalibour or DOA2......

Most of them just never knew about it when it was out

Yeah, my good friends realise the power of the DC... it beats PS2 for multiplayer so easily - 4 control ports to 2

They still pay me out about my Sega obsession but.

It is the uneducated who are missing out

Their isn't that many people at my school with a DC. Most people can't relize that they are so good. But when it comes to parties, nothing beats 4 player DC action

Parties?

Ghetto Pong rules so good when your drunk!!!

Well I don't have Monkey Ball, but I know Powerstone 2 is awesome, I'll have to try and get monkey ball... Actually, that ooga booga looks ok, but I have never seen it in shops or noithing.

Powerstone 2 rox most definately. Monkey Ball is souly for the PS2 tho right?

I think its for DC and Cube, never heard of it being on PS2, as PS2 are mainly getting the sega sports games....

Prophet][ · Post by **Prophet][** » Fri Sep 13, 2002 12:00 am

hmm, I never heard of it coming outon DC, if it did I must get it. As far as I know its only on GameCube.

I would highly recomend Powertstone especially for $5

Monkey Ball was only released on the Gamecube as far as I know...never saw anything about it being released in Japan for the DC, otherwise I'd have bought it by now :p

I went to my Local EB, Arndale yesterday

They didnt have Shenmue 2

but I picked up a copy of Toy Commander 2nd Hand for AU $10

Not bad for the price of two rentals

I think TTP EB still has one copy, if you really want it get your EB to ring other EB's and get it sent to your EB.

I'm EB outed

Shenmue 2 finally comes to Oz

BOOYAAH!
