Critic Score 95
The graphics, particularly the character models and animation, are stunning. The fighting is both strategic and intense, fun to watch and fun to play. -

From the second you turn on your Dreamcast, you'll realize you're stepping into a game world like no other, and you may never want to leave. -

Critic Score 85
Despite the niggling flaws (mostly carried over from the PC version), Quake III Arena is a first-rate title for the Dreamcast, and probably the best PC-to-console FPS port yet. -

Critic Score 90
With it's innovative full 24-hour racing mode, beautiful graphics, solid control, and tons of details, Le Mans finds itself in the company of the finest racers gamers have ever seen. -

If you do plan on going online with NBA 2k2 keep in mind that it might be convenient to have a Dreamcast keyboard handy, when setting up a game. It makes communication much easier. -

Critic Score 85
A phenomenal game. The controls are easy to learn but offer enough depth to satisfy the most hard-core sports gamer. Graphically, the game is stunning. -

It's going to be a long time until Capcom, or anyone else, manages to top it. -

As a sequel that improves on the original and gives experienced players a reason to shell out another $40, Tennis 2K2 is a smashing success. I think I just made a tennis pun, but I'm not sure. -

Critic Score 80
It picks up from where "Quake III Arena" left off in terms of AI, on-line capabilities, and graphics -

Critic Score 90
If you're satisfied with updated rosters, win-loss records online, and some tweaks to an already excellent AI, this is the game for you. If you were expecting NFL2k2 to go out with the mother of all bangs on the Dreamcast, you may be mildly disappointed. -

Critic Score 85
The battle system surpasses that of any other RPG on the market, and you'll be going out of your way to hunt down innocent little monsters and deliver them to their final reward. -

Critic Score 80
It's a must-have if you bust your Dreamcast out at parties, but not a must-have for everyone's collection. -

Critic Score 95
The bottom line is that you must have this game. Even though it has a light story, even though it doesn't have much to offer solo players, PSO is a brilliant game--and what's more, it's a promise of amazing things to come in the Dreamcast's final days and in Sega's new future. -

This is without a doubt one of the best 3D platformers I have ever played on the Dreamcast, or on any other console for that matter. -

I loved Shenmue. But as great as I thought that game was, nothing could have prepared me for Shenmue II. -

Critic Score 50
With UFC, I experienced a sub-par game with great graphics and a main menu that you get to see a whole lot of. -

Critic Score 70
Bizarre neglected to focus on polishing MSR's overall driving experience. Not that MSR is a bad game, but there are at least a few other Dreamcast racers I would have to recommend before it. "Test Drive: Le Mans," anyone? -
-
-
Critic Score 75
It doesn't completely live up to its predecessor in all areas (ease of play, final boss), but in others (arena design, Adventure Mode) it's actually better. -

For somebody who doesn't play many shooters and is not "hardcore," I had a blast with Bangai-O... It does what it sets out to do very well. -

Daytona 2001 returns to the much truer arcade-style control, at the expense of that initial accessibility. -
-
-
Critic Score 90
One of the best 2D fighters ever made...It’s got everything you could want: nice graphics, spot on control, solid play mechanics, and it’s loads of fun to play. It’s nice to have a fighting game that requires some real strategy. -

Critic Score 95
I feel that in spite of the few omissions, with its incredibly tight control, beautiful graphics, and excellent multiplayer modes, F355 Challenge takes the crown for best Dreamcast racer yet, and is a strong contender for best sim racer of all time! -

Critic Score 80
The Street Fighter series continues to offer a depth of play that allows masters of the game to truly be masters. Anyone who considers themselves a fighting game fan should own this title. -

The graphics and depth are sure to please even the most critical racing fan. -

If you persist and have the time to learn Ecco's massive levels, however, you'll find it immensely rewarding, especially once you reach Atlantis itself. -

If nothing else, Typing of the Dead is kooky, fun and inventive, and a worthwhile addition to any Dreamcast enthusiast’s library. Uh, provided you own one of those keyboards. -
-

Critic Score 80
This game features superb graphics, a great soundtrack, detailed environments, and good control. And while there are a few problems with enemy AI and cheap weaponry, there is still a lot of fun to be had with this title. -

Critic Score 85
A great game. It takes everything you loved about the first game and adds even more. The new courses are great, and the addition of the Crazy Hop does wonders in terms of opening up the gameplay. -

You simply need to keep giving Seaman a few minutes of your time each day, and you'll be rewarded with a freak show the likes of which you've never seen. -

Critic Score 80
The graphics are smooth and clean, the controls are tight, and the characters are pretty funny. It won't blow your mind, but it's good fun while it lasts. -
