Re: Should I buy a Dreamcast?
If you like RPGs and open world games with a lot of interactivity I think you'll love Shenmue 1 and 2.
I don't want to hype you about it too much because this series is definitely not for everyone but for me those two games are among the 5 best games I've ever played.
About RPGs, you got grandia 2 which is awesome, skies of arcadia which I didn't really like but a lot of people love it...
Hack n' slash: sword of the berserk is great, draconus is also a great hack n slash with rpg elements.
I bought my dreamcast in a bundle with about 7 games but if I knew any better I'd buy it alone and download the games, I'm against piracy but the companies aren't losing anything because every DC game is at least 10 years old, some games I'll buy because they're so awesome that I want to have the original disc and case and keep them as collectors' items

Re: Should I buy a Dreamcast?
The reason that one auction is a little expensive might be due to the two games included - Powerstone 2 on its own can some times sell for around $60.
That bundle is a little pricey, but the two games are some what saught after.
