Where do you live where you could walk out of your house and purchase a Dreamcast game? And ya, the whole Y+B thing is silly. They should of made it a lot easier to find.

I'm guessing it may be harder to play but if you like that view then you will probably just deal with the added difficulty.

the store is not far from me. we actually have 5 stores that sells used games with in 20 minutes of my house. i left after i made my post at 12:16. i was wondering what i might have missed about this game. so i tried to find my copy, but it was gone! i didn't get back until my next post at 1:51. so a hour in a half is not very fast for running out to buy a game.

how would it be harder? is it harder to play a car game in a third person view? for me it is easier. same goes for a FPS, its much easier for me to play a game like halo than quake 3. i guess that is all a matter of taste and how we are use to playing.

No, I said where do you live where you can find a "DREAMCAST" game so easily. I can only get DC games online. I don't think there is a store in all of long island that sells Dreamcast games anymore.

I just think it would be more difficult to play because the normal view you have a better more focused view of the enemies while in 3rd person view it is zoomed out a little.

sorry dude i thought you were asking how i got a game so fast.

i live in Michigan. most of the stores here no longer carry Dreamcast games. 3 out of the 5 in my town do though. i have 3 smaller stores that still sell old games. they even have NES games. one is kind of like a pawn shop more than a store. he has all kinds of crap from car audio to TV sets. but the other 2 are true game stores. the 2 that stopped selling Dreamcast games are gamecrazy and gamestop. i wish death to them both. more so to eb/game stop. at least gamecrazy held off a little bit longer before they quit selling classic games. i don't mind shopping at gamecrazy still, but if i can avoid gamestop i will. they are the last place i check for anything.



just a few days ago i bought Nights into Dreams and the 3d controller from a store near me. i also grabbed a nintendo 64 ram expander from the same place. the guy had a Master System for sale that i will probably go back and get very soon

Lucky bastard I may have to take a drive over to Michigan some day, they seem to know how to treat retro-gamers well there.

Here in Greenville, S.C. I've got a privately owned used game store about three miles from where I live that primarily deals in discontinued games and systems, and Airforce Delta is a game they seem to have nearly everytime I go there. Was one of the first fifty games released on the system so it's rather easy to understand why it's so common to find.

Just found out recently that another privately owned used game store has popped up about three miles from where I work. Hoping to go there someday really soon, but have to wait until a day when I can borrow the car and drive myself to work so I can go check it out on my lunch break. Slightly worried as to what sort of place it will be since they keep spamming advertisement for the place on Craigslist.

ha, Craigslist is where i found the last one i went to. i was reluctant to give them a try because the pictures they had posted made the store look run down. i checked them out anyway and it turns out the store is a little bit run down but the owner was nice and his prices were damn good.


game_player_s i hope you have as much luck with the new store as i did.

I really have to say Air Force Delta is my favorite flight simulator for the Dreamcast as well. Although, Gary_b is right the fog is kind of cheating on the graphics. It also makes it harder to shoot down enemies flying around in it. Air Force Delta feels more like the Ace Combat series to me, and since I really enjoy that series it makes since that I like AFD.

Yup, airforce delta is pretty good for simulation. But the most fun to play is and will ever be PROPELLER ARENA!!!! (too bad nobody found the online server source yet u.u)
