I recenlty aquired a Dreamcast, but the only games I have at the moment are Skies of Arcadia and Legacy of Kain Soul Reaver. So i'd like to hear your recommendations with a brief summary of the game (story, gameplay etc.) and on a rating of 1-10 how urgent I show get ahold of the recommended game. Thanks!

Jet Grind Radio - 10/10 - If you have to ask what this is and why you should get it you honestly shouldn't even own a Dreamcast.

Soul Caliber - 9/10 - The first true "next generation" fighting game. Even to this day the game still stands out as being absolutely beautiful.

Power Stone - 8/10 - Awesome fighting game that lets you really utilize the environment to help you fight your opponent.

Crazy Taxi - 8/10 - Driving around town in a taxi, trying to get your passengers to their destinations as fast as possible, all while listening to Offsping on the radio as loud as possible.

Zombie Revenge - 8/10

It's a pretty challenging game and has some pretty cool features about it. Imagine if Resident Evil was somehow dropped in to the world of Streets of Rage and you have to pound Zombies to pulp with your might mighty fists.

Thats Zombie Revenge.

@SilverDragon1979: I had heard about Jet Grind Radio from a friend and I have been intent on finding it, but thanks for the recommendation!

@Aurvantoid: You had me at Zombie.

Shenmue 1+2, the reason, why quite simply one of the most affecting games I have ever played, phenomenal to say the least, but you do have to put time into them, sadly, but its worth it 10 times over at the end of it.

Rating-10/10, get it, NAO

I can't stand using a number scale for rating things. It's either get it, or don't to me. But you should definitely check these out.

Capcom vs. SNK 2001
Ikaruga
Triggerheart Excelica
Psyvariar 2
REZ
Twinkle Star Sprites
Shikigami No Shiro 2/Castle of Shikigami 2

All of these are SHMUPS with the exception of CvSNK and REZ. Although Rez could be considered a shmup, I guess.

I'm surprised no blog Nazi's have come in here and started whining.

As far as Dreamcast games go, I wouldn't know what to buy because I never owned one and the only game I played on one was House of the Dead 2

I would suggest against MvC2, because it is sucky.

Marvel vs. Capcom is fucking awesome though.

Heavy Metal Geomatrix
Ikaruga
Street Fighter 3: 3rd strike
Garou: Mark of the Wolves
Marvel vs. Capcom

Pretty much all of the good ones have been covered at this point. You'll have a lot to play for a long while if you get all of those.

@Cataract: As for the whole numerical score I added was simply because I find there is always someone who bitches about a numerical scores (See every review out there) I agree that a game cannot be represented by a simple number.

When I mentioned about the person who complains, I meant they complain if there is a lack of a score.
