Dreamcast Classics Returning to Consoles! June 11, 2010

I have a good friend who readily considers the Sega Dreamcast to be the greatest console ever made.  I don’t dismiss him for this opinion, even though I was never fortunate enough to own one of these consoles myself, I’m very briefed on it’s legend.

Sega has recently announced that more Sega Dreamcast games are coming to modern consoles as downloadable games.  These games have been requested for years.  What many seem to forget, or hesitate to point out is while Sega is saying how bold it is that they’re finally releasing these games from their beloved console, they are not by any means the first games ported from the console.

Sonic Adventure and Crazy Taxi are going to be released on the Playstation Network and Xbox Live Arcade.  They will be further evidence of the legacy of this console.  Currently Soul Caliber and Marvel vs Capcom 2, both ports from the Dreamcast version (considered by Soul Caliber enthusiasts to be the superior version over the classic arcade version) are already avalible for download and purchase on Xbox Live Arcade.

Many are hoping the cult classic Jet Grind Radio will be among the next set of downloads, however that has not been officially announced.
