finally just got a copy of speed devils for dreamcast on ye bay. £4.01 delivered

It's not the best racer on the dc sadly

it was pretty easy but on the plus side some of the effects and tracks were cool.

Rush 2097 and Le Mans 24 hour were a lot better on it with the pad

Massively getting into my NES collecting up to about 15 games so far and increasing. Are there any avid collectors of NES here, been watching a few YouTube videos on collecting and heard about this game called cheetahmen 2 where it had a glitch that you couldn't get past level 4 and its quite an expensive game considering you can't finish it. Anyway heard of this guy who has employed the original programmer or something to fix the game and plans to re release as the lost levels what's everyone's thoughts on this worth it for a rare game? http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/343248998/cheetahmen-ii-the-lost-levels

I think I got close to finishing it, gets really hard towards the end as some of the rain endurance races were really time consuming... (Had it on the pc too but the DC was better).

Seeing as I picked up a DC on the cheap I'm going multi platform to pick up the RE games. RE 2 and 3 are quite pricey on the GC

On the look out for a PS2 now, many of them about on the bay, just looking for the right price for a slim.

be sure to get the remake of the first game....that was an utter gem. i still think that Resi 4 is best on the cube too

some crackers to look out for too are Zoocube, Fzero GX and Sega Soccer Slam too

good lord! is mario golf worth that much! currently upto £33 on the bay!

Nice, I did buy Resident Evil 2 and Code Veronica on the DC today for £20, so I'm pretty happy
