PPR 8

So, with the console reaching its 10th anniversary, we've been reading that some people were considering on snagging a Dreamcast while the anniversary fever is still fresh, as they lament missing out on the 128-bit beast in its prime and going with the PlayStation 2 instead. The entire crew at Press Pause Radio still have the Dreamcast hooked up to their console setups to this very day, and thought, yeah, why don't we do a Dreamcast retrospective! Please, if you haven’t purchased a Dreamcast and are at all considering purchasing one, we will be doing a one-time thing only after the next Press Pause Radio Top 5 segment that we think you're all going to enjoy! Episode 8 of Press Pause Radio will be going over a list of the ten must-own games for the Sega Dreamcast, along with sharing a ton of memories we've had with the system as early adopters.

Thank you, everyone, for allowing us to wax philosophic about Sega's amazing final console. Please comment or message any of your own memories about the Dreamcast. Feel free to do so by either contacting us at our website www.presspauseradio.com, or of course, our Myspace, 1UP, or Twitter for Press Pause Radio, and finally, please subscribe to us on iTunes.

Finally, we decided that doing a retrospective was not enough to really do the Dreamcast justice at all, so with more personal reflection and thoughts on what kind of impact that console had made on all of us, we've decided to do a contest where we will be giving away a Sega Dreamcast to one lucky winner! Here are the rules for the chance to win a Dreamcast episode of your own: We will take 27 responses total from the different individuals who submitted their answers to the three questions asked on the podcast, so if you haven't listened to it yet, be sure to give it a listen! We will choose the 9th response 3 times over until we hit the 27th response (get it? 09/09/09), and the three individuals' names who get chosen from there will then go into a drawing where one name will then be randomly selected out of a hat and contacted to win the Sega Dreamcast with a copy of NFL2K1.

Good luck, please check the contact info listed in the podcast blurb, and thank you for listening again to us on Press Pause Radio!

I loved the Dreamcast. My experiences with the system were limited as I was only able to keep it for a few months, but I enjoyed it immensely. The main games that I played were Sonic Adventure, Sonic Adventure 2, and Hydro Thunder. I really enjoyed those games and I wish I didn't have to sell my Dreamcast. I was really tight for money, so I had to sell it. I never got a chance to play some of the classic games on it such as Space Channel 5, Shenmue, Soul Calibur, and more. Hopefully I will be able to in the future.

Should I post the answers here? I know I'll do it in pig latin. That's very Sega, right?
