    As a proud owner of 2 Dreamcast models for over 10 years, I cannot believe I've never heard of Silver! Gotta find it now! And that's why I love this Channel. Btw, E.G.G. is still one of my favorites.

      Joseph Jenkins racy! I just played it an hour ago and LOVE IT! I adjust the controls to “D1” with forward/backward/strafe left/right mapped to the buttons on the right instead of the awful default, which has you move with the “+” digital while simultaneously using the analogue stick to look around (virtually impossible to use your left thumb to do both), Right trigger to shoot, Left to jump, D-Pad up to change weapons, down to change view (first person or behind character), and analogue to look and turn). It can take some getting used to, but you’ll be glad you did!
      *This control scheme also works GREAT for Quake 3 and Unreal Tournament*
      Gameplay: levels are tight, designed for arcades, smaller than in some other games, but perfectly designed, amping up the rush. Rock solid 60fps, typical but awesome weapons, and in contrast to most FPS games, it’s bright not gloomy and the colors really pop! You can use a DC mouse/keyboard, but I’d rather eat my own teeth. Graphics are excellent, as it’s a true SEGA-made game that was directly ported from the arcade. They could network several arcade machines together, AND you could play it on your DC at home directly against arcade players in real-time! It automatically matches speed to an even rate to keep it fair, and it does also work with the DC broadband adapter (if you know where I can find one, please reply, as the Dreamcast is still very alive online via fan-servers). Fast, Furious, Frenzied, Outtrigger is *still* ahead of its time!

      It WAS a port of a PlayStation game...
      That's probably why.They didn't try with that one.
      An example of a port that tried is Rayman 2, it's a port of the Nintendo 64 version that improves on every aspect. Better visuals and higher resolution textures, 60fps, more content. And a flawless execution (still considered the definitive version to date, and was even used as the basis for the 3DS version).

      Yeah like the US exclusive E.G.G., that was Europe's bes- wait.
      I mean, Illbleed, shame it was only released in the European country of the United Stat- Hold on...
      Maybe your brain is a European exclusive, because there's no way you have one with you over there.
