I'd completely forgotten about these until this article. Not gonna lie I kinda love the Xbox version...

So I decided to purchase a copy myself after watching the video I posted last week and I'm very happy I did. The book is 280 pages (thick gloss paper that seems high quality) in total and has some decent weight to it. I've posted some random pages above.

I'm not a games collector anymore but I do have a GDEMU full of games so now I can read though and easily try the ones that look interesting.

It's a fan project based on JSRF multiplayer. I haven't checked on it in probably a year and it has (sadly) been dropped by the dev now.

Exciting stuff! I really hope MrNeo24 keeps going with the project.

Something new to add to the bookshelf and it looks like a good quality hardback from the video.

Just some random vinyl stickers I had made a couple years ago. Never actually used any...

Personally I had to wait a little longer but there's no denying that 9/9/99 is a special date.

I bought these at the end of 2022 from Lost In Cult. As time goes by I find myself more interested in stuff like this that can bring me joy every day.

There are still some relatively well received games on this list.

Obviously there is a reason for some (NBA/NHL etc) and others have had slight variants on other consoles but games like Toy Commander being left behind is sad news.

I'm pretty sure it's 15+ years old now and still serving me well.

Inspired by the Jet Set Radio series and it looks fantastic. I was waiting for early reviews to make sure it wasn't a disaster or anything so plan to buy it myself asap.

It's been a few years since this was released but it is a great resource to have. I believe a physical edition and even more in-depth version is in the works but dont quote me on that.

I was interested in the original StrikerDC controller but so far haven't bought one myself. This version goes wireless and removes the VMU slot but by doing so it just looks awful.

I mean who doesn't want to watch a 6 hour video of the Alpha Trading office from Shenmue!

Seriously though it's a great channel and shows off what is so special about the game.

While not strictly Dreamcast related I thought I'd share. Re-volt for OpenGL is a modern update to this excellent game and even has online multiplayer!

It's been so long! If I could choose 1 game to re-release it would have to be SOA. I'm not a big RPG player but there are a few that I love and I've always enjoyed going back to SOA every few years or so.

In Rent A Hero No.1, we follow the bizarre adventures of the young Taro, who has just moved to Hangover Park. Taro’s dad asks him to order some delivery pizza, and, unexpectedly, he wins a discount for the pizza and a bizarre gift, a battery-powered hero suit! This is a real suit, and by changing into it, Taro will become a real hero. The delivery man reveals to him that if he accepts jobs from SECA, the company behind the suit, they’ll pay him, and he’ll become a true hero! And thus, Rent A Hero is born!
