Peter.'s Review of Sega Dreamcast Console
27th Feb 2001
Overall Rating
- Value for money
Some excellent games available (eg MSR)
Good controllers
Internet connection
Bad Points
Disc noise (minor observation)
General Comments
Bought this console 4 weeks ago after owning a Nintendo 64. The games are cheaper because they are CD ROM rather than cartridge. However, this means they load slower and make a noise as they are read.
Console is worth owning just to play MSR (Metropolitan Street Racer).
UK Price just dropped to £99 (just after I payed £150).
Sega are planning to wind down manufacture of this console now.
