I loved Shadowman and Legacy of Kain for adventure games. You can't go wrong with Soul Caliber and Hydro Thunder either. There were tons of great games.

All the SNK fighters.

And if you haven't played them, the Sonic Adventure games are pretty fun.

Its better on the other systems because the Dreamcast controller is not suited for it. But yeah, MvC2, CvS2 are great.

I'm thinking about getting a DS, well I was going to get one untill they were sold out at my target, CompUSA, and EBgames. Anyone know a place that could still have some?

It runs the best on DC though sadly, with an arcade stick for DC it can't be beat.

Dreamcast also has the best console versions of some of last hardware generation's games (Resident Evil 2, Star Wars: Episode 1 Racer, Shadowman, etc.). Typing of the Dead is one of my household favorites as well.

What's a good price for a used Grandia II?

I highly recommend:

Illbleed: a great B-horror style adventure. Unlike other survival horror games, this one has its tongue firmly in its cheek and doesn't take itself seriously, making it a fun game with tons of replay value.

The House of the Dead 2: still the most visceral light gun game on the market

Soul Calibur: still looks gorgeous and plays marvelously after all these years, and the customizable opening movie rocks!

D2: one of a kind blend of RPG, survival horror, adventure, MGS style cinematic storytelling, and *gasp* hunting game!

Chip your DC to play imports. There are tons of gems not released in the US:

- Sakura Wars 3: there will be a PS2 port, but it will be nowhere as good as the DC original if the PS2 remake of the first game is any indication.

- Hanagumi Columns 2: great Tetris clone featuring the cast from Sakura Wars 2, with tons of playing modes.

- Mobile Suit Gundam: Federation vs. Zeon + DX, you get both the original and DX version in 1 package, and this is an arcade perfect port unlike the poor PS2 port

- Gundam Battle Online: still tons of fun in offline mode, play either size of the conflict and receive upgrades as you progress through the campaign

- Frame Gride: from the makers of the Armored Core series, this is basically the same game in medieval/fantasy setting, with your mecha now looking like armored knights and able to cast deadly spells instead of raining lead upon all around you.

Highly agreed. I played this with my friends and I love it, although I tend to spaz when you start to type a lot more... but I love this game.. could help you in your vocabulary, spelling, and typing =P.

ARMADA! Highly underated game imo, four players, this game is just awesome. Still hoping they finish the second one for Xbox.

Maken X, this game is just insane. Take on the apperance of your enemies, slap rockets back at them with your sword, it's just a lot of fun and reminds me of an earlier Breakdown in many ways.

Test Drive 6, by far my favorite racing game ever, very arcadey, basically the perfect racer.
