Sucks for me, seeing as I have no 360, and have no intention of getting one. However, I'm fairly non-plussed about the initial 2 titles. I have the PS2 version of Crazi Taxi & Sonic Adventure doesn't interest me. However, I guess other titles will come along eventually.

Of course, I still would prefer that the PS3 get some of this action.

This most likely means Chu Chu Rocket and Powerstone 2 will be released some time in the future.

You're all in for a big treat!

Edit: Ho ho ho and maybe non suscription Phantasy Star Online.

I read that Dreamcast was also going to Ps3

I will now inject Powerstone into my veins. I will not come back. I will be happy.

Maybe, but there will need to be servers for it. I have a friend who actually HAS a Dreamcast and PSO, but I don't think it's still supported.

That's sad, actually. SEGA always had superior systems and the Dreamcast was no different. You apparently get blazing-fast speeds on nothing but a regular phone line with no special service using the thing. Everyone else requires broadband.

The only way to play PSO now is via private servers ie Schthack or whatever the name was. Also the one thing that worries me about these ports is that Sega may or may not by lazy with them. From those screenshots SA XBLA isn't even HD. Apparently it's locked at 30fps too, but I'm just going off of what I've read on Neogaf. Disappointing when the PC version can do 60fps and display in 720p with a few changes to the ini.

Skies of Arcadia.

Preferably Legends, but in the end I won't bitch if it isn't.

Yeah, I loved my Dreamcast to pieces (Perhaps too much as the modem died on me.)

I remember getting up at early hours in the morning to play PSO on the phone line when it was at it's cheapest.

That game still has my favourite boss music.

I still love my Dreamcast oh so very much. This news about the DC's finest being on X-box live and PSN makes me wanna cry tears of joy.

I still want SEGA to get back into the console business someday.
