Today March 15th at 4PM PST, Sega will be stopping by the Destructoid live studio to play some Dreamcast classics and perhaps something a bit more modern. Join us today on Justin.tv to find out what mischief we are up to and perhaps you could win some prizes along the way.
Hang out with Destructoid Chill Bros on Justin.tv/Destructoid every weekday at 4PM Pacific. Check out Venom, Carnage, and Pico's wild videos that happen live everyday from the Destructoid live studio in San Francisco, CA. Do you want a chance to win aNintendo 3DS? Just follow us here and we will be giving away a Nintendo 3DS in March, along with many other prizes daily.
Pico Mause is the tiniest member of the Destructoid family. Pico stars in video interviews, but spends most of her day hosting Mash Tactics, the fastest growing show on JTv. She also produces Public Access Destructoid and is known to be highly quotable faux-ginger and board-certified griefer.

Sturmwind is a german shmup in the vein of R-type and Gradius, the screenshots ive seen the game looks to be very nice especially for a DC game and even more suprising as the original iteration of it was developed as a Atari Jaguar game with the visuals of a simlar standard.
BTW I might not beable to catch this show live but i take it ill beable to watch an recording later on?

well no shit ps2 was better, but Dreamcast had an incredible charm to it and was waaaay ahead of its time when it came to the online stuff. Most of its games are dated but it doesnt mean it wasnt a terrific system.
@Arrrdawg: you seem to forget that people have diferent tastes, saying that someone should hang themselfs because they like the dreamcast is the most idiotic idea I have ever heard, please note that the dreamcast had a whole list of games that are still great by todays standards, not graphicaly, because only idiots judge a game based on there graphics.

To each his own..
I have both PS2 and Dreamcast,and the Dreamcast gets far more use.
Even after owning both the HD consoles, I have yet to find a better game than Shenmue,Though Uncharted 2 is close : )
They said something about a charity near the end of the stream where Sega would sell people games for about $7 and give that money to the effort in Japan. They also said they would post a link to the website, but I never saw it. Could anyone post the link or at least tell me if the offer is still active?

No, it's done by an indie studio. There's still about 5 games a year come out for the DC, mostly bullet hell shooters.
Rush Rally Racing was damn fun though.
WTH?
Typical killjoy grump. "I hate everything wah! I drink the tears of dying children"
