My Dreamcast has actually survived its second day, which is quite an achievement since the one I got before died after 24 hours. Well, still scared the hell out of my when it resetted out of no reason yesterday... about three times. At the moment everything is fine again. Anyway, since it survived longer, I should give it a name. The first one had the name Topher, so I'll call this one just „Topher the second“. That should fit. It's interesting that my Dreamcast is the only console I actually name... can't come up with good names for the others...



Continued to play huge amounts of Soul Calibur and Virtua Fighter 3, along with Rayman 2, which I start to enjoy more and more. The Dreamcast has actually managed to get me into racing games, even though I totally hate racing games! Metropolis Street Racer (MSR) is an interesting mixture, since it combine simulation to a certain extend with Arcade-style driving. Up until now, I really liked the experience, and the fact that you actually have to be good at racing in order to get points, which you need to open up new courses, really keeps my motivation up. It doesn't get boring, even after your third try to be better at a certain course in order to gain more points.

Unfortunately, I can't really get into Toy Commander. Maybe I should read the mission logs? I do like the graphics though, all the little details really show some great polish! Tonight I'll probably test some Multiplayer parts of the 12 games I got for the system. Worms Armageddon should be awesome...

Many thanks to all those who wrote some comments with game suggestions in my last post!
