Today while in New Milton, Hampshire, visiting a school, I passed a retro games store and on my way back to the station I purchased an immaculate boxed Sega Dreamcast for £20, a memory card for £5 and £9 worth of games. I never owned a Dreamcast, but have heard so many times over the years that they were an under valued console that was excellent, just badly marketed and overpriced. Jus (surprise surprise) had a Dreamcast when she was younger and requested (on the phone) at the time of purchase that some 'Tomb Raider' titles were bought too, she has been playing them this evening. I've been playing 'Crazy Taxi' on the good advice of Hais. The Dreamcast sits alongside the Megadrive we bought two weeks ago, and I'm impressed by the graphics, the sound quality and the condition it is in. First time we turned it on it asked for todays date, starting at 1998 as default, where have the last ten years gone? They flew by.
