There are two types of racing games: one for gearheads who know the difference between double A-arm and panhard rod suspensions, and one for the rest of us who know the difference between the gas and brake pedals. If you're in the latter group, listen up because one of the highest-grossing arcade racers of all time, Daytona USA, has come to the Dreamcast. Not only can you go head-to-head in two-player split-screen mode, but you can also race up to three other Dreamcasters via the Internet. Before you take that car out on the information superhighway, though, you might want to think about downloading a competitor's driving record and data in the form of a ghost car, against which you can develop your racing strategy. ...

This game is great.
Daytona U.S.A. is the best racing game on Sega Dreamcast. Daytona is better than Speed Devils. You need online to unlock all the cars. The online is great. Buy this game it great. This is a Sega Dreamcast classic. This game is kind of like burnout.

Arcade classic reaches home!
This game is probably the best arcade-style driving game ever ported to a home system. It has awesome graphics, addictive music track, and really fast, intense tracks. The control is kinda tough to figure out, but it's a very minor flaw. A sure MUST BUY title.

Be warned: the online mode NO LONGER WORKS. Sega already said it will NOT be back, ever. Not to worry, though: split screen mode works really well.

Daytona Comes to the Console
People who enjoyed the arcade version of Daytona will enjoy this game equally.There is just something about the physics and the appearance of the arcade Daytona that I always liked.It doesn't have a million cars to choose from and the car reflections are not as impressive as Super GT... but the game is just fun.I think you'll find the dreamcast version of this game to be just like the arcade version, so you can base your judgement on that.

Would of been good.....
This game could've gone down as one of te bet racing games ever to hit the DC. But this did not happen for these reasons:

No Damage to cars after a crash

You can drive head on into traffic get in a crash that makes you flip 4 times and still be in the race at regular speed.

Online play requires multiple downloads

Those are my reasons for giving this game a 2 you don[t]... ha[v]...e[t]...o believe me but if your shopping for a racing game on the DC just pretend you never saw this one.

Greatest Online DC Racing Game Yet
You really have to be a fan of this game to enjoy it. I used to play this game against my brother and my friends in the arcade, and I still do. But now that Daytona 2000 is on the DreamCast with online features you don't have to goto the arcade and play the old 32-bit version, because the DC Port is simply stunning!

The online Net Battle is so well done that even on my DreamCast's 33.3k modem there is virtually no lag at all! It's just like playing Daytona in the arcade again! One thing that lets it down is only 4 human players can be in a race at a time. But this is probably the reason why there is no lag in gameplay.

Overall, Sega has done a great job with porting an old classic to the DreamCast, I hope they will keep it up and port a few other arcade games. ... Read more

SPIDEY DESERVED BETTER
The Dreamcast version of Spiderman is UGLY and that is an understatement. The cut scenes are ugly the graphics are lacking especially for Dreamcast game and the game is EXACTLY the same as the Playstation version. If you played the PS1 vesion then stick to that and forget about this. Many people gave this a high score but take my word DON'T LISTEN. I did and wasted my money on this crap!!!

Spidey deserved better on Dreamcast...what a disappointment1!!

Great game with little problems!
if you are a die-hard spider man junkie then this is the game for you!!!! Not only is it a great game to beat it is also fun just to mess around. isold my copy a few weeks after it was released because i wanted to buy a new game. Recently i saw Spider-manin theaters and i am totaly psyched to buy it again. i am hoping to get an x-box and buy the version on that but until then i need something to tie me ever. this game is the best spider man related game over released on one of sega's products. the only flaw in this game is the poor facial features. mouths that don't move ect. This factor is obsolete to the fun factor in this game. BUY IT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!

spider-man review
this game is really fun, i have been playing it again and again and i allready beat it. and it has alot of funny lines that spider-man says. quote "ok recap im a couple hundred feet under water electrified floors and walls and deadly turrits aiming straight at me..aw my day just keeps getting better and better"
end quote. i recomend this game to anyone who likes spider-man it will still be fun to swing around even after you beat the game. this game is supder fun the best game i have ever played.
but it's not the best game now because the new movie based spider-man is out on the ps2 it looks soooo coooool. i am going to buy it in a weak. anyway buy this game!

Tight!!!
It's so cool!You get to be spider-man.It's better than the game Tony Hawk.

Very easy at some parts, very hard on others!
This game is fantastic, the graphics are nice, the cinematics are great, the game is just so fun. The thing I thought that was unique and fantastic as when you have beaten a level, in the special options you have the ability to watch the cinematics from each level you have beaten, you may also play the level(s) you have beaten. You can also go looking for comic books in this game to add to your collection, which is also a part of the special options. I find it very entertaining swinging from building to building, or crawling on the top of the walls, and yes you can allways do it, it is never disabled. There is some parts that made me laugh, well actually the only thing that made me laugh was Venom and his comments towards Spiderman, oh and his tone of voice. This game can be extremely easy at some parts, and extremely hard and frustrating on others. Mainly the part when you are climbing up a building and a helicopter shoots misiles at the building, trust me, you won't get it on your first try, or your second! But this is a great game, other super heroes have small parts in the games cinematics like Black Cat, Daredevil, and the Human Torch. This is a must buy, I just can't stop playing it! ... Read more

easy
100M = 9.40 sec, Pole vault = 6.51 Javelin = 102.23.. the first day i recieved my copy... only using the standard controller. So unbelievably easy...

ESPN International Track & Field
The game is pretty easy.100m==> 9.78 Sec, weightlifting ==> 265 kg, javelin ==> 108.21 m, hammer throw ==> 99.03 m, 110m hurdles ==> 12.54 sec, long jump ==> 9.18 m, pole vault ==> 6.25 m, horizontal bar ==> 9.93, triple jump ==> 17.86 m, high jump ==> 6.45 m.Really easy, except for trap shooting.I have fun with this game.BTW, I only use Sega Dreamcast standard controllers.

well, at least field
crisp graphics and smooth gameplay make for a good and fun game without all the blood and violence we are so used to. this game definitely blows the lid off of Virtua Athlete 2K, and i havent played Sydney 2000 so I cant pass judgement on that one yet. a couple of the events are dynamite, but then you have the 100m sprint and 110m hurdles which are near impossible to even come in 6th without the use of a cheater controller.

in turn, this also makes it extremely difficult to unlock the hidden events, because of requirements needed in other events. I would reccomend this game to any fan of the original Track and Field title for Nintendo (great wasnt it) and any sports/olympic fan.

Events you find in this include: 100m dash, 110m hurdles, weightlifting, javelin, hammer throw, long jump, pole vault, horizontal bar, 100m freestyle, triple jump, vault, and trap shooting

a bronze medal
good graphics and player movements. some events like 100 meter dash,long jump and weight lifting are impossible to rank in. cool replays and a nice espn presentation. this game is very fun but many flaws make it a little short of the gold ... Read more

Dreamcast Fan
I bought this game for my 6 year old son. But it is really a game for all ages. Once you start you can't stop.

Gamer and parent of a budding gamer
Like many Dreamcast ownwers probably are doing, I have been trolling for games to get cheap ones for my dead system.I have found many that both me and my 4 year old son love to play. This was not one.I was excited about this one, as my son loves Toy Story and Buzz Lightyear. After less than half an hour we both decided that this game was way too hard.

The 3-D perspective was poorly handled by the game engine.It is virtually impossible to walk a straight line regardless of the camera style you pick. Just about every jump has to be this ridiculous double wing jump.Precise moves are crucial to complete the tedious missions that even level 1 presented, and as an adult veteran of Tombraider and Spiderman, the controls for this game just made me mad. You spend all your time trying get the right position and failing to land in the right spot.How they could make a game obviously targeted a younger gamers so bloody hard to navigate is a mystery.

Envision your child controlling Buzz on a ceiling beam, trying desparately to make him walk a simple straight line, and slumping in frustration when he falls for the umpteenth time. My son loved Spiderman on the Dreamcast, and I was trying to find something similar but less mature. Toy Story 2 was horrible by comparison.Never bought a more frustrating Dreamcast game )except for maybe Qbert). Very disapointing.DO NOT BUY THIS GAME even for 5 bucks.

Good game but not for all ages.
Toy Story 2 is a good game with very good graphics.
It's almost like playing the movie that's how good it looks.
But be warned this game is for kids between (ages of 3 and 8). It's a bit difficult at first but once your kid plays it more then once, they'll get the hang of it and have fun.
If you are looking for a kiddie game than this is the game for you.

Like the movie.
This game is hard. Not that hard, but with puzzles. You need to find tokens to get to the bext level. The tokens are hidden, like get 50 coins, five sheep, etc. Bosses are easy, and the levels are very boring. Buzz runs very slow, and sometimes you need to run a lot so its boring. There are levels that there weren't in the movie. Like construction yard, Allies and Gullies, etc. And when I got all 50 tokens, I thought there would be an extra level, but no.

Don't think your kids will like it
We bought this for my kids (10 and 5) for Christmas.They found it very frustrating.I have not played it myself.We had hoped it would be something that the little one would enjoy, but it is hard even for the 10 year old. ... Read more

Editorial Review

When it comes to digital hoop action, there's no doubt thatNBA 2K sports the most luscious visuals ever seen in abasketball game. It's not the best-playing basketball game out there,as it does commit some serious fouls with its questionable artificialintelligence. But like NFL 2K before it, this is yet anothersports game that Dreamcast owners will want to show off to friends.

The clean graphics show some extremely well-detailed players,stadiums, fans, and even coaches. While the player animationsaren't quite smooth as glass (there are quite a few speed-ups andslowdowns), the players do move in a fairly realistic manner. When yousee the instant replay of your favorite power forward delivering amassive dunk, you'll cheer. To complement the visuals, Sega has addedplay-by-play and color commentary to document the on-screen action.While this does get a little repetitive, this feature ultimately addsto the atmosphere of realism.

NBA 2K shows some trouble with controls. This is most apparentin handling loose balls. You'll cringe as you occasionally watch longpasses sail out of the court, resulting in mindless turnovers. This isespecially painful to watch when the Dreamcast can't complete passesto computer-controlled players. These stupid turnovers can, will, anddo affect a game's final score--and have even caused a few games to berestarted in disgust. On the positive side, NBA 2K contains anew finesse-based method of hitting foul shots that requires that yousqueeze the control triggers in near perfect synch.

The create-a-player and coaching options make it relatively easy tolead your team from postseason TV watchers to championship ringowners.

While the 2000 season's prettiest basketball game offers more thanjust the most delicious eye candy, there is still a lingering feelingthat NBA 2K could've been much better with alittle more fine-tuning. At the very least, while NBA 2K is recommended, it isanticipated that the successor NBA 2K1 will offer even morebackboard-breaking fun. --Mark Brooks

Pros:

• Spectacular graphics that show plenty of detail
• Play-by-play and color commentary add to the fun
• Easy to play, but different from most console roundball games
• Foul shots are a highlight

• Graphics suffer from occasional slowdown for no apparent reason
• Controls could be stronger

Decent basketball game
i usually get nba live but when i bought 2k it changed the way i think about basketball games .the graphics are good and the gameplay is good .this was the game i chose when i first purchased mt dreamcast i got it after it was already sold out and now here i am writing a review

The Best Basketball Game Ever
My tittle says it all. Hands down, no comp., aint nothin' else coming close to the classis, the very first NBA 2K. The BEST sports graphics I've ever seen. This is a true story, no lie. Alright, I was playing NBA 2K on Dreamcast and my father walked past the room and saw only the TV screen and said to me, "There're still playing NBA games? I thought the season was over". It's crazy how technology drastically change, and that game was out over 4 years ago and nothing since has been even able to come close (except ofcourse the other NBA 2K's).NBA Live is just getting up to par with Live 2004. NBA 2K has surpass all other basketball video games and reached a whole new plateau. Not only the graphics are the best but the game play was too real. The moves were so detail. I can't say enough about the game. My Dreamcast is inop. because I think I played it to much but I would buy a whole new system just to play this game.It's a shame the whole Dreamcast system went out of business. I think people were runnin' with playstation just off name alone. If you ask me, If they would have made all games for playstation and Dreamcast, Playstation would have been the one out of business. Anyway, Three words to describe NBA 2K. OFF THE CHAIN!

dreamcast has the best sports games
I think the now defunct Sega Dream Cast has some of the best sports games out there (NFL 2K, Virtua Tennis, etc), and NBA 2K is no exception. The graphics and game play are great. I think this is the best basketball game I've come across.

NBA 2K Rocks
Nba 2k is the best 2000 basketball game available. it is very realalistic and the create player option is awsome. The graphics and controlls and great. Some bad things are the computer aminated teams [STINK] even on pro and all-star. Another bad thing is the bad passes. If you want a great 2000 basketball game this is the one to get!

AWESOME NBA GAME OF 99!
this is an awesome game of the 99! well its ABOUT TIME a system made a game for ALLEN IVERSON! who is FAR MORE better than KOBE BRYANT and with the stats to prove it! its just that Allen Iverson doesnt have a perfect team like kobe, as EVERYONE of kobe's team mates are better than the average nba player.

Anyways, this game has alley oops, great graphics [graphics are especially good in NBA games cuz it just looks weird when the graphics are bad in nba games, and also if you watch the sport on tv, you can tell who's who and find the better person faster without using direct pass!:) ] The rosters are accuarate, no FAKE rosters such as "roster 14" like the NBA LIVES series. all players are ACTUAL PLAYERS!

here are a FEW things you can do in NBA 2K

alley oops
direct pass
cross over
create own player
create own team

and also when u create a player you cant have him PERFECT, which i think is actually a GOOD thing so the game wont be too easy. and when you make your own team, the names are set for you allowing the announcer to say the name, which makes it less confusing [i was confused when me and my friend played NBA LIVE 98 on computer and both made custom teams]

hopefully a system will make a WNBA game soon though, cuz TINA THOMPSON is hott! :) ... Read more

Amazon.com Review

World Series Baseball 2K1 nearly ruined one of the most cherishedfranchises in sports gaming with its poor gameplay. For the 2K2 edition, Segaturned to Visual Concepts--the developers behind its excellent football,baseball, and hockey titles. The developers only had 10 months to work on thetitle, and while it's the best baseball game on the Dreamcast to date, it playslike a game that needs more work.

Thankfully, fielding is back in the game (fielding was automatic in 2K1).Unfortunately, the controls can be very tricky. Ground balls hit within areasonable range of the player often pass him. The only alternative is diving,which leads to spectacular shots of players diving over and past baseballs. Thebatting and pitching controls are simpler than in last year's version, but couldhave used more polishing. Hitting is way too arduous (in the video gamesense)--even after dozens of game hours, tracking pitches is far more difficult than inother games. Positives include sharp graphics and a plenitude of modes, such asexhibition, season, playoffs, home run derby, franchise, and online. This iscurrently the only baseball game on a console that supports Internet play,albeit with some lag and bug issues.

Problems aside, this is as good as baseball gets on this platform. If theDreamcast is your only system and you're itching for a baseball game, then don'thesitate to pick this one up. Gamers with other consoles should consider EASports's and Acclaim's baseball titles. --Raymond M. Padilla

Pros:

• The best baseball game on the Dreamcast
• Excellent graphics
• Internet play

• Gameplay could have used a few more months of tweaking
• AI is easily fooled
• Internet play can be buggy

Upgrade from 2K1, but still some work to do...
If you haven't looked at 2K1 yet let me save you some time, DON'T!!!We all know it stinks and all we Dreamcast gamers feel at least a little ashamed for SEGA.If you have looked at WSB2K1
here are the updates in this version.

PROS:

(1) Fielding!2K1 was almost massacred with ratings saying that "automatic fielding was so boring".I admit I was one of them.Well, here it is.This was sort of a problem for me as it sometimes a pro and con at the same time.One minute your player makes a stupid dive right over the ball, the next a diving catch or snag of a line drive 10 feet in the air. HOWEVER, this manual fielding isn't so bad as everybody says, although sometimes I wish that automatic fielding was an option.
(2) Graphics!WOW!If you gamers thought that 2K1 had some sweet microchips for graphics take a look at these.I'm talking about the view of stadiums here.I'll get to players' graphics a bit later...
(3) "Oh, the selection of modes..."!This pretty much sums up this section.You can choose from Quick Start, Season, Playoffs, and Franchise gameplay modes.There are also, of course, Options where you CAN create a player.
(4) STATS!If you play sports for none other than stats, get it on the spot.I love getting stats, and they show it all...(pitchers) ERA, I.P., Saves, W/L, and CG.(for batters) BA, HRs, Hits, RBIs, SLG%, SB, and Runs scored.Let me tell you, Mr. Ichiro Suzuki can sure rack up the stats in this game!

CONS

(don't be scared because I didn't put up enough pros up there!)
(1) Graphics...I told you I'd be back for player graphics!The players don't look anything like the real thing.Although you rarely get close enough, unless in replay, to see their faces, Ichiro Suzuki looks more like Ronald McDonald!And Cal Ripken Jr. (which is retired now, of course, but the game doesn't know that: another con!)
(2) Gameplay Realism...Have you ever seen Ichiro Suzuki throw a that little white ball before??I'm sure you've seen his April 8th, 2001 throw to David Bell to nail Terence Long of Oakland at third base??In this game Ichiro's throws are almost as good as mine!(No offense, Mr. Sultan of Swat!!)They just go up, up, up, etc., and then drop down perfectly to the base they are throwing to.Only 3 times (out of some 100 bil. throws) have I seen him throw a lazer beam, but only when he is standing perfectly still for about 2 seconds flat.
(3) Create Mode...Now, of course, like most of you gamers, I like being fair to the CPU and try to make a well balanced team and it seems when SEGA made this they wanted that, too.COME ON!
The trading won't let you trade for anyone else unless they have exactly the same ratin or you getting ripped off.You also can't trade more that I player at a time.If you want to get some superstar (I tried to trade for Scott Rolen to bring him to the Cardinals) you have to create a player literally a clone of a body-builder with 100% rating to get someone of that value!!Try trading for Ichiro now..!!!I also need to say that this clone will put a log-jam in the statistics with .400+ avg., 60+ HRs, 150+ RBIs, 100+ SBs, etc.!!Like I said if you are a statistics person like me, you have to hate that.
(4) Celebration...We all want to make our favorite team suped up for the postseason to go all the way, of course!Unlike you NBA, NHL, and NFL 2K, 2K1, 2K2 you will find a mean suprise at the end of the World Series. (assuming you got the guts to go all the way to the big dance!)NO CELEBRATION, TROPHY PRESENTATION, ANYTHING!!!!!The least WSB2K1 had was a little sendtence in the season mode say "Congratulations, you are the WORLD CHAMPS!".In this game, they all just trot off the field (even after a Game 7, walk-off grand slam by Cliff Floyd of Boston: of which I was getting hoarse from yelling) as if this was a preseason game, which they would celebrate anyway!Also, as the review below me states, when you hit a walk-off HR, the player does not get credit for it.Only for the RBIs and Runs.Also, what happened to MVP, Gold Glove, and Rookie of the year awards?!?!?!?!?

I could add more, but the reviews below me will probably fill the rest of you questions (and time) with useful answers.I hope this helps you, a fellow consumer, to be thrifty about spending money on video games....

The Best Baseball Game Out There
This has got to be the best baseball game on the market.The learning curve is not to steep and you will be hitting the ball with ease in no time.Base running,throwing and fielding are all excellent.
I just got through playing a complete season which took about 3 months playing it pretty regulary and made it to The World Series and won....the cpu is smart and depending on what skill level you have the game set on the cpu is a tough opponent.

Pitching in this game RULES!Curveballs,Sinkers,sliders,fastballs,Change-ups,forkballs and splitters.They're all here!

The players are so realistic it's like you are controlling real life players.Each player has their own unique body type,batting stance and swing.

Mark Mcguire looks and acts JUST like Mark Mcguire.All of the players are true to life.

If you own a Dreamcast or are thinking of buying one this game is a must in your Sports Collection.

Not the best, not the worst.
I had high hopes for this version of World Series Baseball after the disaster that was WSB2K1.This game is definitely a solid improvement, but it wasn't the grand slam that I was expecting.

PROS:

1. The stadia and fields are very realistic.

2. At first, I was concerned that there was no "spring training" or "batting practice" mode.Then I figured out that "rookie" mode is all about BP.

3. This game has the best create-a-player that I've ever seen.

4. Actual gameplay (controls and movements) is top-of-the-line.Better than any other baseball game I've seen to date.Once you master the reaction needed to field grounders (after changing infielders, if necessary) and position yourself for shagging fly balls, you're golden.I will agree with the other reviewer who mentioned that there seems to be at least one dropped fly ball per game, but in my case (thankfully), it usually happens to the CPU.

CONS:

1. No color commentary.There is a play-by-play announcer, and it is not very dynamic play-by-play--the announcer will repeat himself frequently.And if you score more than 100 runs in a game (yup, I have), he gets really confused.It's quite humorous.

2. Every single player has the same home run "trot" that involves pumping his fists in the air and landing defiantly on home plate.It's funny to see a player like Edgar Martinez--who shows very little emotion on the field in real-life--acting like he has never hit a home run before.

3. You can strike out anybody, anywhere, anytime by simply locating your pitch just beneath the strike zone.It doesn't matter what pitcher you are using.

4. There are lots of bugs.I won't repeat them since other reviewers have covered most of the, but one that is worth mentioning (and proves that I've played the heck out of this game) is that no player can have more than 127 homers in a season.Once you hit the 128th, the counter resets to -127 and counts back to zero.NICE.

5. I'm not sure why Sega even included the ability to "trade" in Franchise mode, because the CPU will reject any trade.I tried to trade Barry Bonds for Charles Gipson.Ixnay.Now THAT'S funny.

There are other issues, but these are the major pros and cons.I'm still waiting for a computer baseball game that truly blows me away but in the meantime, there is always the real thing.

Best baseball game on Dreamcast, but flawed
World Series Baseball 2K2 for the Sega Dreamcast is a very fun and exciting game despite having many flaws. After having a terrible game World Series Baseball 2K1 game I knew this one just had to better, but I was reluctant to get it because of the way 2K1 made me want to get rid of it (Which I did afte rplaying it 3 times). This game is probably one of the deepest baseball games out there now. It has a very, very deep franchise mode where you can manage your team through several seasons by signing free agents, making trades, drafting players and re-building your team if you are struggling or your star gets signed by a new team. Another great mode is the Home Run Derby which is the best Home Run Derby in a video game for a very long time.

This game has many flaws that make this game frustrating at some points though:
1) There is a bug that allows pitchers to get the save and win if the come in in the top of the 9th after you scored the go ahead run in the bottom of the eighth

2) If your player hits a walk-off homerun, he will not be credited with the homerun in his stats
3) In this game it seems like arule for there to e an error made in the game while trying to ctach a fly ball
4) All homerun celebrations are the same, no Sammy Sosa leap, no Barry Bonds flinging the bat and walking, just pumping of their fists in the air.
5) Your catcher always throws out the computer if they attempt to steal.
6) In franchise mode you can't do blockbuster trades with multiple players, you can only make straight-up trades

Due to these and many other glitches this game is challenging, but still very fun. I foyu want a great baseball game for your Dreamcast check this one out, it's definitely worth 20 bucks.

Many Inaccuracies, but Still Fun
Although I've found the gameplay much better than other baseball games, there are several things that are quite annoying about 2K2:
1)The reason the batting averages are so high is that anytime a runner is moved over, even on a groundout to the shortstop, it is considered a sacrifice.
2)Your catcher always throws out the computer's base stealer.
3)Pitchers hit far too many home runs.
4)It's useless to try to dive with an infielder, becuase if you miss the ball, the outfielder dives as well, so the computer will get a double or triple.
5)You can always move up on a flyball, because the computer will throw 2 bases ahead.This counts as a sacrifice fly, which also improves the batting average.
6)If you hit a "walk-off" homerun in the bottom of the ninth, the batter will not get credit in the statistics for either the hit or the home run.He'll only get credit for the RBI and run.
7)There's a glitch that allows a pitcher to get the win and the save.
8)Even though fielding is user-controlled, the computer intitially picks your fielder.Many times, it picks a fielder that is further away from the ball, and the one it should have selected will be running to cover the bag.This can make it tough to get some ground balls.
9)You can only do straight-up trades for a player of equal or lesser value.This really takes away from the franchise mode.
10)Your outfielders throw to the base, not a cutoff man.That means if the computer has a runner on 2nd and gets a base hit, you either have to concede the run and hold the batter at first, or try to throw the runner out at home and allow the batter to go to 2nd.The game doesn't allow you to select another fielder while the ball is in the air so that you can cut the ball off.

Because of all of these glitches, the game is definitley challenging.Because it's hard to "master," it's more fun, but some of these things are very basic that could have been avoided by using a little more care. ... Read more

Editorial Review

For those willing to take the bait, Sega Bass Fishing has an addictive gameplay hook that will reel in sporting enthusiasts and even a few hardcore gamers. This realistic 3-D bass fishing simulation shines with three distinct gaming modes, eight fishing environments, and 13 different lures.

Let's be honest here. Fishing simulation games aren't for everyone. Many hardcore gamers will likely bypass this title because they believe the genre lacks the instant gratification of fast-moving shooters. That's a shame. Though it might not be everyone's can of worms, Sega Bass Fishing does offer a subtle, highly addictive gaming experience that will challenge even the most seasoned of game veterans.

This isn't Quake, to be sure. But you'll need similar gaming smarts and strategies to succeed in this water-based sporting environment. It takes a skilled aim and a steady hand to hook and reel in the largest fish, which are surrounded by smaller, less desirable catches. There's nothing worse than casting your lure directly at a monster-sized bass only to have it intercepted by a meddlesome minnow. We encountered more than our share of near misses, which gives us virtual bragging rights to "the one that got away."

While some gamers will prefer the subtlety of free-form fishing sans time constraints, this game also features a fast-action arcade mode that requires the player to meet a minimum quota of catches before advancing to a new fishing environment. An optional Dreamcast fishing controller (sold separately) makes the task of catching these underwater critters all the easier. The controller, which also adds a realistic rumble when you catch a fish, is a highly recommended accessory for the ultimate home fishing experience. --Brett Atwood

Pros:

• Near-perfect translation from the hit arcade game
• Eight realistic 3-D fishing environments
• Three different game modes to choose from
• Great control with optional fishing controller (sold separately)

Cons:

• Game genre will not appeal to everyone

boring game
this game is very boring! is not even little bit of fun!the graphics are good. the game is a person on a boat and fishing! how boring is that! if you like fishing rent it first because the game could be boring to you too.

SEGA BASS FISHING (READ)
This game is fun for a not so serious gamer but I bought my game at BEST BUY for 99cents. This game is VERY EASY to beat but it is fun

A Fishing Video Game?!?!?
Wow would ever think that a fishing video game could be fun? Well Sega sure porved that it can with Sega Bass Fishing. This is the most realistic fishing sumilator to date and is extremely fun. You can play as either a man or a woman fisherman in a few different moddes including tounament which is extremely fun where you have 4 minutes in the morning, afternoon and night in 3 different spots to try and catch the most total weight of bass. You can choose from a large variety of lures and after you catch a certain amount of fish you can unlock new special lures. The realism when catching a bass is there. The smaller one's will put up a small struggle, but can be easily brought up to your boat, but the larger they get the harder they are to bring in and the more likely they are to snap your line. You can also use a fishing controller on your Dreamcast that makes this game so much more realistic. I highly recommend this game to fans of fishing. Hey, it's only 10 bucks.

This is a good game
I thought this has a lot of good graphics.It is fun to play with kids when they get the hang of it.It's so cool I could play it all day!

Great fun
I have never liked fishing, much prefer sitting on a boat and drinking a beer.Don't like to eat them, so why waste a few hours trying to catch them.Bought this game for my 4-year old and we both are addicted.It is great fun catching the fish and picking the lures to use.I recommend it for anyone who just wants to waste some time and have fun...it is not brain surgery, so if you want a challenge look elsewhere. ...

WAY to easy... but its da bomb
For those of us who are sick of the dark natured games coming out lately would truly apprecieate a game like Frogger 2. It is great! With lush graphiics that are great for this type of game and a toe tapping soundtrack you can't lose. My only disappointment is that it is to short and way too easy but a great purchase altogether. I am a huge adventure fan and I love it, you must get it.

Brings back good old memories...
Back in the eighties in the time of the first video game arcades Frogger used to be one of my favorites. Now this 3-D version, with several variations of the same theme, comes back. I have to say though (maybe it's because things have evolved) that I was not so thrilled to play it as I thought I'd be. But still it brought good old memories.

Frogger is pretty fun, but WAY, WAY, WAY, WAY, WAY, TOO EASY
frogger is pretty fun.i rate it badly, though.The case lies.It said that there are 30 new levels, referring to the fact that it has old levels, about 5.So 35 levels were supposed to be in there.Really, there are only 17 unbelievably easy levels in it.That's 48% of what it was supposed to be!Now, the reason to believe me is because really, i am a school GENIUS.when i get home, after completing my A+ homework, i play my dreamcast.I am a total fan of adventure games and almost nothing else.Frogger 2 is adventure, and i would know if it's good orn not.NOT GOOD.it is just a little bit of fun.But i will recommend you some very good adventure games.They include: Sonic Adventure 2, Super Magnetic Neo, Ms. pac man, 102 dalmations, and rayman 2.They Rule with a huge capital R.Buy them instead, i urge you.

The best !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You will not want to leave your computer until you finish all the levels!We played this game for hours and hours. After you get alll the coins on levels a new arcade style game will open, and with some of the higher levels an extra will open like being a mini frog or feeding frenzy which you can use to eat almost everything that comes in your way!Frogger 2 is Da' bom
FROGGER 2 IS HIGHLY ADDICTIVE!!

This game has some hop!
Frogger is a real lot of fun.I played the original arcade game many years ago...it's unbelievable how far things have come.This game has a lot going for it.

First off, the game contains all the original frogger games in a retro area.For purposes of nostalgia, or just variety, it's fun to try these retro Froggers.

But Frogger is by no means resting on it's past glories.The new stuff just rocks.The soundtrack is fantastic.The video sequences are funny.And the game play graphics are fantastic.Their are 10 levels or soto work through, and it's difficult, but achievable; you won't get stuck on level 2 and be unable to proceed, but it takes several months to work through the levels.And their is good variety between all the levels...one level might be "Frogs in Space"...another level is "Spooky Frogs"...and another level is "The Ancients".

This game is a lot of fun.Give it a go! ... Read more

Football players with butter fingers = mass fustration
DO NOT buy NFL Blitz 2001 even if its on sale for a cent!

The game is the most fustrating game i've ever played. In what other game would your recievers fumble the ball when they are tackled mere inches from the End Zone (sometimes on a first down, sometimes when the game is on the line)? This happened to me at least 3 times in one game! Needless to say it resulted in 3 costly turnovers and I lost the game. The hardest part was the fact that the game was on the EASY level. I expect this kind of CHEAP play on the hardest setting but not on easy. The constant fumbling by players throughout the game is a SERIOUS TURN OFF especially for fans who just want to enjoy a good game. The random and FREQUENT fumbles made this game a worthless piece of junk.

The game is also flooded with too many loading screens that get really old really fast when you just want to get into the action. Very poorly designed, Midway. If you still have a bad taste in your mouth from NBA Hoopz then AVOID this game. The graphics are on the same level and the announcer is the same.

Do not waste your hard earned money on this poor game! Read the other reviews that warn of the fumbling problem and do not make the mistake I did!

PLAY OR RENT BEFORE YOU BUY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Save your money
if you think this game is quality then think again. this game has nothing more than the original blitz!you fumble the dang ball any time any one touches you! you get intercepted if you even pass the ball! the mini games are twice as bad as the actual game and the graphics are as bad as super nintendo! Don't even get me started about the game play. it is so horrible. You have to walk in the direction the reciever you want to pass to! How bogus is that!

DO NOT GET IT! SPEND THE MONEY ON SOMETHING
THAT'S WORTH THE AMOUNT YOU PAY!
(Which means not this game because this is worth $$$tops)

NFL Blitz 2001
I returned this item to you over 3 months ago and have not received confirmation of a credit to my account.I would like to have this taken care of.I returned the item using your return label.I would like to purchase more item but am not receiving customer service on this returned item.

I would expect that my credit card would have been credited the amount by now!PLEASE RESPOND.

Don't get it
All this game does is fumble.You touch the ball for 2 seconds, you get tapped, a fumble, don't get it

Great Game
This was a great game for you to play if you like to hurt people alot.You can fumble alot and also get picked off to but you can do the ame thing.Overall this is a great game to play and you will have alot of fun with your friends when you hit then and in the mini games.Don't let people influnce you not to buy it if you are leaning towards to buy it so go for it and get it. ...

WHY?????????
Why did they make this game?I got it because I thought the concept of racing in old cars would be cool, and it would, but not it this game.It takes three years to load, and the controls are horrible.It's also really boring because you're always way up front ahead of everyone.I regret buying this even though i only spent 10 dollars for it.I wouldn't even take it for free now.

oh my god
This game shouldn't have been made it shows no sign of greatness on the speedometer says 214mph it feels like 35 mph. Going to school is more fun than this game.It shows no sign of speed and when you hit the wall back in those days there was fire when you hit the wall in this game you bounce off and nothing happens. Only fun factor is it's too easy you can win every time.other than that this game is just awful.

A really fun game......once you get the hang of it!
Let me tell you that first off this is not a fast paced game like 4 Wheel Thunder. This is a game that is meant to simulate 1930's racing cars. The graphics are very realistic. You can have 5 or 6 different views when you are driving. The old time music is really unique, away from all that rock & roll of other games. You are able to go on 8 tracks, 12 different cars, chose diffuculty, and chose practice, quick race, championship, or time trials.

<<<<>>>>

The steering is pretty bad once you start, but once you play it for about a week you get the feel for it. There is also no brake button! You just have to let up on the gas. I don't know why it is like that. It also take a century to load! It does only take up 2 blocks of space.

<<<<>>>>

If you are thinking of buying it, ! This game is probably not a game you want to even spend $20 on. In my opinion, this is a fun rental game, but a "not-worth-it" type of game to buy.

STAY AWAY!STAY VERY FAR AWAY!!!!!!!!!!
This game is horrible!I bought it about a year ago when there were only a few 20 dollar Dreamcast titles out.I had a Mad Catz 2 racing wheel. The back of the game said it supported the steering wheel. I had read average reviews on it.What were they thinking?This game doesn't even deserve one star.I don't know how it got a 4 out 5 average. Why is this game horrible?First, the loading times last forever (you could take a nap).Second, my steering wheel wouldn't work. I guess it only works with the original Sega wheel that came out when Dreamcast came out.Third, the graphics looked like a first generation Playstation game.And that is being kind. The framerated was not much more than 15 frames/second.Fourth, the physics engine was ridiculous.The crashes were pretty goofy. Thankfully the store I purchased it from allowed me to exchange it or I would have used it for a coaster. This is probably the worst game ever made on the Dreamcast!There are so many great games that are priced at 20 bucks now.You can make a wiser choice in picking one and that wouldn't be too hard to do.It is a crime that this game was even released on the super system that the Dreamcast is.

Amazingly Awful; Awesomely Atrocious
The people who have given this game good reviews must somehow be in the pockets of LJN/Acclaim or simply own not even ONE other post-1993 auto racing videogame.Look about the Web at wellregarded game review sites and you'll see reviews of 2.0/10, 1.9/10, 3.0/10 or even (believe it or not) a -2.1/10 (yes, a minus!).Fully informed as such, I still could not fight an immense curiosity to see if it is really that bad, and bought it new locally yesterday.IT IS THAT BAD!

The graphics engine is slow, undetailed, staggers along at all times (you'll see 2D sprites posing as trees move toward you with obvious pixel stepping), and is composed of horrid textures.Roads look like oatmeal paste. The cars have octagons for wheels.See the rearview mirrors with their static images!Yes, the mirrors hold 1 image that never changes.The one nice bit of graphics is the available cockpit view, with fairly detailed, working instrumentation.

I can also be kinder in regards to the handling.The cars do brake and accelerate with competence and decent response to controls.Some reviews have called the game's driving physics undrivable, and this is patently false.

But then there is the matter of meaningless modes with preset and too lengthy lap settings.Then there is the fact that despite a nice variety of cars, you CAN'T choose one with a less-than 150 mph top speed and win.Why?Because the computer always takes the 170-mph models!You just permanently fall behind.

Oh, and then there is the OVER 1-minute loading screens which put your DC through a workout before even getting to the second game menu.And then....

The game can be deemed worthwhile for 40 minutes.Try out each vintage racer (15 of them I believe) for a minute then load the next.Add 10 minutes to read the little car history bits in the manual, which is worth more than the game itself. ... Read more

NBA Hoopz is strictly for the basketball fan who thinks the sport is all about spectacular dunks, lots of shoving, and little or no strategy. With the goofy gameplay and hyper-exaggerated NBA player renderings, b-ball purists probably will (and should) dismiss this as the dumbest of arcade games.

Hoopz is basically the latest generation of basketball games in the ultra-arcadey NBA Showtime or NBA Jam vein and has little in common with the more accurate NBA simulations out there. In most respects it plays slightly better than the older arcade-style titles, if only because Hoopz is a three-on-three game.

Most gamers will immediately notice the enlarged heads and huge biceps on even the lankiest of NBA players. Also, the fast-paced action basically centers on hurling the ball around the court as quickly as possible without any regard for complicated play calling. In fact, most ballers can easily jump 25 feet above the rim for ridiculous, death-defying dunks that, of course, deliver the ultimate in sports fantasy.

Unlike most of the 2001 season of "real" basketball games for the system, Hoopz stretches gameplay with a few mini games. Included are variants on 21, Around the World, Three-Point Contest, and even the old-school 2Ball that features two-on-two team play. There are also unlockable courts for you to find. You can also easily create your own players and cause havoc throughout the NBA with wild league trades and customizations.

While the courts and backgrounds are decently drawn, the player models are disappointingly blocky and fail to capitalize on the system's power. Hoopz gives players a backward walk and the give-and-go, among other moves, but the game's emphasis on shoving, steals, and strategy-defying action confounds these nuances. --Mark Brooks--This text refers to the PlayStation2 version of the game.

Pros:

• Very easy to play
• Mini games and unlockable courts
• Strictly for basketball neophytes

Cons:

• Cartoony player graphics are uninspired
• Little to no strategy required, which kills off longevity
• Possibly too silly for its own good

Why is there no minus feature to rate games like this
NBA Hoopz was the first game I played as I purchased my Dreamcast and I must say the excitement I felt for playing this game vanished after a few days. I am a MEGA HUGE NBA JAM FAN and I thought that this incarnitation on the series would be the bomb but it just bombed!! When Shaq or Karl Malone become 3 point threats late in the fourth then you know that the game is crap and DOES NOT FOLLOW STATS. Why put stats in the game if EVERYBODY can dunk and run up court dribbling the ball behind their back. NBA Hoopz is rediculious. This game has the poorest graphics of all incarnitarions to date even the SNES versions seem better than this crap! Players look terrible in game and worse in replay! The game is also missing the magic and fun of any other NBA Jam games, Midway has no excuse for producing this mess. The 3 on 3 was anice idea but POOORLY implemented as the 3rd player just becomes a useless object on the court. This game could have included some strategy to take advantage of the 3rd man but it does not! The sound and commentary are poor as the anouncer incorrectly calls a LOT of plays, he hails a block when it has obviously scored etc. If this is better than NBA Showtime then I am affraid to even look at that because I never thought that any NBA game could be this BAD. I MEAN BAD!!!!

Stick to NBA 2K2 which is MAD and leave this as a distant memory!

Almost as bad as NBA on NBC...
...which happens to have only 2on2 games and no mini games. But the gameplay of Hoopz is okay, being too easy to score. Plus, the graphics stink. The only fun things from the minigames is the 21 (rough house) and the 3 point shootout. In the gameplay, unrealistic dunk after dunk happens and makes the game boring. Plus they have customize an already playing plaer, which is just plain stupid. So don't get this or NBA on NBC. Get NBA 2k1 instead and enjoy REAL basketball!

Fun, but poor in quality
I usually don't participate in these things, but I felt so strongly in voicing my opinion.

I was excited when I was on my way home after I purchased NBA Hoopz for my Sega Dreamcast.I was a big fan of NBA Jam during my high school and college years, but I was quite disappointed once I began to play Hoopz.

Although Hoopz continues the Midway Sports tradition of no rules-parody sports, I was disappointed that they included foul limits (five per quarter) in this version. One of the best features of NBA Jam or NFL Blitz is that you can do anything to your opponent (shove, clothesline, drop-kick) and get away with it.

The audio for Hoopz often causes me to scratch my head.Why do I, as the home team, get booed from the home croud whenever I start getting a hot streak or if I foul an opposing player? I often find my home fans cheering for the other team.The announcers often yell 'rejected' or 'get that shot out of here' even though the ball goes in. I can't help but to laugh when I hear the announcers butcher Peja Stojakovic's last name or when he calls a play wrong.

The best thing about this game however, is the fact that it is the closest thing to a modern day NBA Jam.It's a faster paced game than the 'reality based' basketball games which keep me from getting bored. If the minor glitches can get fixed by the time NBA Hoopz 2K2 comes out, I'll be the first one in line to get it.

Visual Concepts created a huge stir with the original NFL 2K--thefirst football video game that actually looked like you were watching a game onTV. NFL 2K2, the third game in the series, still features themind-boggling graphics, stunning player animations, and great play modes of theoriginal. And, despite an often frustrating passing engine, it's still one ofthe best sports simulations around.

You can play as any NFL team in a variety of modes: practice, tourney,exhibition, season, playoffs, franchise, fantasy, tutorial, and network (againstup to seven other players nationwide). The franchise mode is again one of thegame's strengths, as it offers a variety of scouting and free agency options,letting you customize your roster as a general manager based on the statisticsand financial demands of actual players. Now you can learn what the WashingtonRedskins already know--the salary cap is a cruel mistress.

The player animations are again the star of the show. There are literally dozensof potential endings to any collision in NFL 2K2, from stumbling fiveyards after a shoestring tackle to spinning dizzily between two linebackers tosomersaulting through the air after stretching for a catch over the middle. Andalthough the tackles can be spectacular, the game doesn't betray its simulationroots by making them too extreme. These aren't torn from the comics pages, as insome games.

Sega Sports has talked up its new passing system quite a bit, and it is bothchallenging and intriguing--perfect for the hard-core simulation expert.Unfortunately, the rest of us are left struggling to complete 5 to 10 passes agame. Essentially, the game asks players to expertly anticipate routes and timethe receiver's catch. This is no easy task in a fast-moving game such as this,as receivers routinely drop wide-open passes on the rare occasions they do getopen, and you'll find your primary receiver blanketed by two or more defensivebacks on most plays. The passing engine isn't overwhelmingly flawed, but averagegamers will need some serious time to overcome the Ravens-like pass defensethey'll face early on.

The running game was the original NFL 2K's main weakness, and it remainsthe single biggest improvement over the evolution of the series. Sometimesrunning between the tackles in NFL 2K2 can be a tad too easy and runningoutside can be too challenging, but the game rewards players who see holesdevelop and are adept at cutbacks.

It's the small details, though, that make NFL 2K2 the sports simulationtriumph that it is. The commentary--although still prone to calling turnoversincorrectly--is first rate, the on-field player dialogue is highly entertaining,and even the stadium music and crowd chants add to the atmosphere rather thanannoy.

The game isn't necessarily worth an upgrade for people who already own NFL2K1, as the improvements aren't dramatic (unless updated rosters are yourmain concern). But for football fans who want one of the best-looking sportssimulations ever made--and who don't mind the initial frustration of lousyquarterback ratings--NFL 2K2 is a Hail Mary come true. --RiversJanssen

Pros:

• Unbelievable graphics, yet again
• Extremely responsive gameplay

• Gamers must have genuine football skills to complete a pass
• Improvements from NFL 2K1 are minimal

Reviews (72)

simply the best
this game is great i played it for hours the best football game you can play 5 star all the way its better than nfl 2k3 it is i bet you!

Fun but lots of room to improve
THE GOOD
Physics and control are almost perfect
The load times are kept to a bare minimum
Announcers are not annoying
The franchise mode
As fun as football gets

THE BAD
Stat tracking is very innaccurate (especially your punter)
Pro Bowl tracking isn't even close to accurate sometimes
It's either too easy or too hard, middle difficulty is still easy
DB's [bad] at picking off the ball and play the ball even if his back is facing to the play
Announcers repeat and contradict themselves constantly

I love this game and recommend this to anyone

NFL 2k2 FAQS/Comments
The main reason bought this game is for the online plau and the fantasy draft that you can play offline. The isnt hard offline enless you play with ALL PRO which isnt super hard just like the REAL NFL. Hell I can beat the Oakland Raiders with Cencenatti Bengals. For those of you think its impossible to catch and get away from the d-line then use the Vikings since they are the games mascot you can see Randy Moss on the front of the cover so if you play with the Vikings you ell basically hae to try you can throw to Cris Carter since this man has a excelent catch he never drops even when he ges tackled just right he stll holds onto the ball.

One my favorite things about this game is the ability to throw bullets or pop ups its your choice but pop ups are more likely to be intercepeted. Bullets are the best to avoid a defender also note if you try hail mary a bullet it will be pretty crooked far reach from the reciever. The best team to do hail marys is the Rams and Vikings since they have atleast one fast reciever and when there fast you just chuck that ball way out there like a 70 yard throw and you think you over throw to Randy Moss or Isacc Bruce but they smoke almost all dbs and wide open to make the catch if it isnt overthrown.

The graphice are amazin like NFL 2k1 all the same moves but require strategy since they canged the way they juke. Well in nfl2k1 you can just pull a juke move and most likely joke al the time with a group of deffender you can get away with this is what [made me mad] in NFl2k1. Now we have NFL2k2 and wel none of the Bullcrap no more since when you sped you recver or running back sows down to make the spins or break the tackle.

My most favorite thing is to to a Full NFL Fantasy Draft. i like to choose my players win by one witht he cpu alos taking a few of the good ones makes it challenging and in th eend you can see your stats for yu off and def then you start a fl seaon with the players you choosen the they keep track off eerything including who goes to the probowl.

The online play is great! The only thing is when you play with someone your connection affects the game in a way like when you throw the ball to a wide reciever he most likey drop it since the people online just tackle them before it happens I have done it too but when i do it offline its pass interfernce maybe this happens because of 56k modem since I have gotten way with that tackle the guy to make hiim drop trick. Well the online is pretty good if your isp is good has a ranking system and also keeps track of how many wins and losses you have.

I give NFL2k2 4 stars since the online play. I never like it when people quit when are about to get a win.

Don't see much of a difference...
...between this and 2k1 i mean. Im reviewing this quite late, Nov. of 2k2, but i just remembered. Just like nfl 2k1, this game is all that. The gameplay is simply amazing. But is it too easy to make a reception at times? Many plays to choose from and many to create. And though Michael Vick is benched, he's improved in it more than in 2k1. The stadiums are outstanding, especially Seattle's and Detroit's bright fields. One thing i don't really like is that every time you try to do a season, it's always the same schedule for all of the teams. That should change. I would reccommend 2k3 for all of the ps2, x-box, or gamecube owners out there even more than Madden. But this is an incredible game. One more thing: for anyone who reads this before Super Bowl xxxvii, go eagles!!!

"Is it Live, or NFL2K2?"
Wow! Graphics, lifelike, exciting, and unbelievable, only describe half of this game. Sega has done it better than before.
This game is so true to life, I could "feel" myself hitting the turf after a spectacular catch! The play selection could be a challenge if you are not sports savy. However, after a few plays, it gets easier. On a scale of 1 to 10, I would have to give it a 11!

If you're into freestyle stunt games that are similar to the TonyHawk's Pro Skater series (a necessary comparison), you might find, with alittle patience, that Dave Mirra Freestyle BMX is a surprisingly goodone. It doesn't offer much more than the established fly-and-trick formula, butit's still a fun ride.

In general, this game calls for quicker thumbs and more precision than othergames in the genre, but it also provides a greater sense of accomplishment tothose who get up to speed. The animation of your rider's backflips, grinds, andother aerial maneuvers looks startlingly realistic; and, with 1,300 tricksavailable, chances are that you'll always find a new way to fall off your bike.Most levels are huge and designed so that you can pull off many stunts pertrack. In fact, you must complete some of the harder stunts to win sponsors fornew gear. For all of you kids who are into aggro music, Dave's game featurespopular four-chord acts Social Distortion, Rancid, and the Deftones, as well asrap group Cypress Hill.

On the downside, the game's visuals just don't look tremendously better than thePlayStation version. Although they're nicely rendered and decently animated,none of it screams, "128-bit pixel-pushing processing power!"

While it won't stun anyone with its originality, Dave Mirra Freestyle BMXoffers an interesting twist on the burgeoning freestyle-stunt genre. --MarkBrooks

Pros:

• Many challenging stunts
• Hip soundtrack
• Bike-control scheme plays and feels differently from others in genre

• Substandard graphics
• Nothing most gamers haven't seen before

You Gotta Get It
Man...this is the only 5 minute break ive taken from the game in hours. Let Me explain about it

Gameplay: The controls are easy to learn but hard to master(Wich makes the game fun but challenging). The Graphics are awesome, honestly i havent seen better. The Levels are amazing, They let you do challenges from amatuer, pro, and hardcore wich give you hours of fun challenges. Honestly, this proves that an E game can still be fun. YOU HAVE TO GET THIS GAME.You dont know what your missing out on if you dont

Not very good
The graphics are terrible! If you liked Tony Hawk, maybe you'll have fun with this, but keep in mind that this game did not get any noticeable improvement over the Playstation version... which was not that good anyway.

Dave Mirra ROCKS!!!
Very addictive, challenging, frustrating at times, but keeps you coming back for more. I've beaten this game many times, but i still play it and love it to death. The graphics are great, and plenty bags of tricks to pull out, over 3,000+ combinations, plus you can make your own too. Tons of records to break (longest grind, biggest air, longest jump, longest manual, etc...) There are i think 12 diff parks, but 3-4 levels of challenges for each park, except the competition levels. Skate Park 8 is awesome park, along with Camp Woodward. This game is highly reccommended. If you are trying to decide between Dave Mirra and Mat Hoffman, go with Dave Mirra. Mat Hoffman sucks.

Decent game
Dave Mirra is a fun game.With a bunch of tricks and characters it is a lot of fun for one or two players.I beat the game in four days.The competitions are tough to get used to but once you have the game figured out it is repetitve for each rider.

Is he slow or is he just stupid?
Nothing beats the feeling of playing your favorite bikers -- Mirra, Nyquist, etc.The moves are amazingly true to form and the soundtrack gets the blood pumping.The controls are easy to understand and adapt.

But one thing that no one has mentioned is that this game has some major lag when there's lots of stuff happening on screen -- whether it be a speeding train, or a gaggle of ramps and intersections.I can only compare this game to that of Tony Hawk Pro-Skater, and no matter how fast and crazy my moves are in Tony Hawk, the game never slows down.Well, Dave Mirra does some weird annoying slow-mo effects.

Which kinda makes you wonder, is he slow or is he just stupid? ... Read more

Editorial Review

Experience the pure beauty and freedom of flight, without guns, without missiles, and without leaving your couch. Aero Wings puts you in control of the Blue Impulse stunt airplane team. You lead the team through precision maneuvers and death-defying loops. In either the challenging one-player or simultaneous multiplayer modes, Aero Wings is all about perfect stunt flying, free of the burdens of air combat.

The meat of the game is the Blue Impulse tour mode, where you enter several air shows. As you pull off intense and graceful stunts in follow-the-leader type aerobatics, you score enough points and progress to the next of 20 diverse missions. Sky mission mode has you flying through suspended hoops in challenging time trials. Throw in the free flight mode and the beautiful replays, and Aero Wings is a uniquely beautiful and addictive game. --Sajed Ahmed

Pros:

• Authentic Japanese Blue Impulse stunt airplanes
• Up to 4 players on screen at once
• Extensive peripherals support, including Jump Pack, VMU, and the VGA cord
• 0 to 100 grading scale on stunts will have you coming back to achieve perfection

• Environmental graphics not very detailed

Horrible game big waste of moneySONIC ADVENTURE 2 RULES!
Aerowings has a nice veriety of planes to choose from. The plane graphics are great but the enviromental graphics arn't so good. The first times you play it it can be fun to land and take off the plane, but soon it just gets kinda borin'. You don't get to shoot down other planes and make them crash to the sea or blow up all the buildings, it's just fly'in around like an air show. You don't get to land on any air craft carriers so that makes it no fun! The music can get very annoying, somtimes it makes me feel like smashing my fist into my T.V screen to stop that horrible racket! Even if you like this game in the begening you'll get so bored of it you'll wish you hadn't even bought it!Overall I would give this a thumbs down 2 star failer. Don't waste your money on this other games like Airforce Delta are good. Here are my ratings if you wish to read them.

graphics: Horrible

music: Even Worse

missions; Boring

replay value: All of the Above

overall rating; 2 stars!(PATHETIC)

Great Game!!
I recieved this game nearly a year ago, and it still has my interest. It is full of different aircraft which are very accurate. Also, this game is a console flight simulator, acutallyit is the first one I've seen. The graphics are fairly good for what the game is. I give Aerowings 5 stars!! *****

Very realistic flight simulator and aerobatic trainer
I just got this game for Christmas, and I just can't stop playing it -- I love it!!

The game is the most realistic flight simulator game I have ever played.The realism comes from accurate aerodynamic interpretations of stick movements, flaps, landing gear, etc...If you ever wanted to be a real pilot, then this game is for you.It is such an accurate simulation that it might even help you earn your pilot's license.

The game is organized into 3 sections: training, map missions, and free flight.In most games, the training section is a small demo that you just have to get through to get on with the game --- not here!Training is the bulk of the game, and is itself divided into 2 sections -- basic flight training, and advanced aerodynamics.The basic flight training takes you through maneuvers like landing, taking off, rolls, loops.Each training chapter must be completed before advancing.And completing each chapter is not as easy as you may first expect.You get briefed on the training flight, execute it, and then get feedback and rated on how you performed.You are striving for excellence, because the maneuvers must be executed with extreme precision, because the goal of the game is to join an aerobatic flight team similar to the Blue Angels or Thunderbirds.The aerobatic training includes maneuvers like barrel rolls around your flight leader, loops in formation, etc...very very tricky, and a complete joy to practice.

If you're looking for a "shoot-em-up", then this isn't what you're looking for.But if you're looking for the best flight simulator and aerobatic trainer, then Aero Wings is the game you want.

For people SERIOUS about aviation
For everyone who loves aviation,this is an incredible game.It simulates TRUE flight in various aircraft.The phyics are right on,the detailed planes are incredible,and each plane handles true to character.For people longingto be real life pilots this is a great experience.For trigger-happyindividuals,wait for Aerowings 2:Air Strike.

excelent game
I would give this game a 5 because it has such good realism and wonderful game play.its good for many hours of play.its also has a very chalanging but good multi player game but once you get the hang of it it is rellycool.its levels will take you a bit of time too beat. so that is why iwould give it a 5. ...

Amazon.com Review

Players who thought that NBA 2K was good are in for an evenbetter game of hoops this time around with NBA 2K1. Almost every area ofthe franchise has improved, and now players can hop online and challenge someonein Sioux City, Iowa--or anywhere else--if they please.

Player faces are much more recognizable, and the resolution and detail of thecourt is higher than it was before. The coaches, too, are more animated--raisingtheir hands in the air as a three-pointer goes up and in--and the crowd is morethree-dimensional and lively.

During the game, players will encounter better defense against lay-ups; also,they'll have to break down defenses with quick passing, and post up and backtheir way to the basket. On defense, the computer always looks for easy buckets,which forces players to double-team opponents and keep scorers to theoutside.

Franchise mode is the icing on the cake, as players can draft a team, and signtheir own players and free agents by making offers and orchestrating trades. Afew more special offensive moves would have been nice; but, as is, this is amust-have title for fanatic and casual b-ball fans alike. --Robb Guido

Pros:

• Excellent graphics and improved artificial intelligence
• Players can go online and play opponents across the country

• Could have used more offensive special moves

Features

• Sequel to the very popular Dreamcast basketball game NBA 2K
• Online play option allows you to compete with 8 Dreamcast players via the Internet
• Motion-capture animation provides realistic pro moves
• GM mode allows you to trade players and draft rookies
• New commentary and authentic 3-D arenas

It's good but it has bad graphics.
This is a good video game, but the problem is the graphics, man it's bad, and the superstar teams the San Rafael Sega Sports Team and the San Rafael Seganet are good but really racist, because they hardly have black guys on their teams, but I do like the San Rafael Mocap. My favorite players are Sadiki Fuller and Roy Byrd, and the name of their colleges are really funny: Dunk University Very Much, and University Read My Ankle, but is their such college as Light It Up University, and Redman is featured from Def Jam University, and Larry Peacock from Hard Knox College, and Charles Outlaw and Brian Grant. But when the players were made with giant heads, that was freaky, and I didn't like that over camera, but my favorite camera is swivel. I give it a ***** (5 out of 5).

NBA 2k1.... just gets boring
It is too boring and the dunks are stupid because it make lil people be able to dunk. Jus plain horrible

NBA 2k1.... just gets boring
It is too boring and the dunks are stupid because it make lil people be able to dunk. Jus plain horrible

Killer Deal
This game Is asome the graphics are great all the players look like themselves (unlike NBALive) you could do street ball, playoffs, Season, franchise, and more the players do awsome dunks and for only [$$$] Go And get it!

NBA 2K1 is sweet!
Okay, my other review hardly told you anything about the game. Next to Sonic Adventure 2, this has the best graphics I've ever seen!The sound effects are awesome, you can hear the shoes squeaking on the floor, the 'harff' when you score a 3 pionter, and the 'Argh!' when you dunk it!It's like your there witnessing a real basketball game (not to mention the Commentary)!If your into games like Tony Hawk's Pro Skater, make an acception.You'll love this game! ...

POD Speedzone: Interesting and Difficult to Master
First, an important note: This review DOES NOT cover the online gameplay capabilities for POD Speedzone, as I do not have online capabilities at this time.

POD Speedzone is an interesting game.There have been many futuristic racing games both in the arcades and on the various consoles.POD Speedzone certainly does not even attempt to distinguish itself from the rest of the futuristic racing games in existence, but it is still rather interesting and fun to play.

However, players should DEFINITELY bypass the opening movie.It is not interesting at all.In fact, the opening movie is absolutely unnecessary.Even worse, it is embarrassingly open-ended without having really presented any believable storyline to make such an open ending worthwhile in any way.

in POD Speedzone, it is important to become familiar with the controller configuration as quickly as possible.Fortunately, there are five configurations from which to choose, including steering with either the analog stick (which is really rather difficult unless someone is an analog-steering specialist) or the D-pad (the arrow buttons beneath the analog stick).Those coming to the DreamCast now (since there are so many used DreamCast consoles on the market in the States) from the PlayStation/PSOne or the PlayStation2 - both consoles primarily use the D-pad for steering in racing games - will find the analog stick difficult to use for steering, as it is inherently not nearly as precise as the D-pad, and oversteering or overcorrecting is FAR too easy to do with the analog stick.

For those who do not have the DreamCast console configured and wired for Internet access and online play, Arcade Mode is the only game mode available (other than Two Players Mode).The game presents a number of cars, each varying in both look and performance; two of the cars are not available, as they are apparently for online use only.Once a car has been selected, a race venue can be selected; again, one race venue is not also available unless online capability has been detected.

Each car comes equipped with shields and a fixed amount of Boost.Shields are destroyed due to collisions with ANYTHING, and once shields are gone, the next collision cripples the car and the race immediately ends.Shields and Boost can both be provisionally augmented by collecting the proper power-ups.Weapons are also available to try to blow the competition out of the way.

In many situations at most racing venues, the raceway is bounded by metal barriers.Touching these barriers or any other obstacle (including another vehicle) will result in the car's shields fading away due to the incurred damage.In ALL situations, the raceway is extremely narrow, so passing must be done with care; this is an obvious benefit to the race leader, as there is not much raceway to protect when driving defensively.

POD Speedzone is interesting, and difficult to master.Players can expect to spend a lot of time with this game.

Internet Must!!!!
It's a good game if you have internet access.If you don't, don't bother

could be better
this games is really really fun but has way too much bad things.first off theres only 6 tracks, not much options and no championship or story mode etc.Therefore this game gets boring quickly.I think Speed Devils is a better bet.the racing may not be as good but there IS WAY MORE REPLAY VALUE BECAUSE OF THE CAREER MODE.

really fast
The game is amazingly fast and without any lag. It's a lot of fun! I don't regret it. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Sega has had great success with its previous sports titles for theDreamcast, so everyone was waiting for them to hit one out of the park with therelease of World Series Baseball 2K1. In many ways they have, but thegame suffers from enough bugs and has so few options that true baseball fanswill be crying foul.

Stadiums and players are rendered in glorious high-resolution detail, to thepoint where it's easy to recognize a player by looking at his face. Similarly,most of the animations look terrific--especially diving catches and quickacross-the-body throws. We also enjoyed the pitching and batting interface,which is more complex than that found in most baseball games but becomes a lotof fun after a little practice.

Unfortunately, the game is all downhill from there. Once a ball is hit, playersare forced to sit and watch the computer field it. The lack of control isabsolutely infuriating, especially since Sega hyped this game's realism from thebeginning of its development. The crowd sounds are anemic and there is no colorcommentary, which is just as well considering how terrible the play-by-playannouncer is. If you really love baseball, you'll really hate World SeriesBaseball 2K1. For casual fans who prefer flashy graphics and a funpitching/batting contest to thorough stat tracking and the ability to field theball, this game is a home run. --T. Byrl Baker

Pros:

• Gorgeous stadiums
• Nice TV-like presentation

• No fielding
• Stuttering animations
• Lacks fun extras

It was great if the maker think about the game deeply.
Recently, I am a very deep fan of MLB though I am Japanese. It is for that I have many opportunities that I can watch MLB games on Japan TV because Japanese top baseball player went to MLB. Obviousely, MLB playing style is very wonderful. Mainly the batting is power vs power. The batting form and the flying figure of hit homerun ball is splendid. For instance, B.Bond,A Rod and G.Jiamby is so.

When I played this game at first time, that is, for a few weeks, I was very bore for the game. As wrriten in this game review, when we set in our defense play, the movement almost rely on the computer, and we can not reflect our thinking. After that for a few months, I put the game to my book shelf. As I got to be a hot MLB fan day by day, I remembered about the game of the shelf, and played that again.

Unexpectedly, I enjoyed the game more than the first time. That will be because I got many knowledge about MLB. I knew that there were some players who had many unique batting forms. In the same time, in the game I knew what is expressed many unique batting forms too, for instance G.shephield sharp batting form, N.Garusiapara's nervouse glove touch is so. I think that the maker put the deep consciousness to the detailed graphics of players. Off course for the native american fans as you, such things may be natural, but for foreigner fans that is sufficient thing.

Though the defensive is a little bore certainly, the batting play is fun. We can reflect our thinking for the play to some extent, therefore the more we improve our batting technique, as the batting player will react to our wish. I hit 25 homeruns a game by using all star custom setting.

Thank you for reading my poor English.

What was Sega thinking?
I wish that I used to review games as a job because the only way I can play World Series Baseball 2K1 is if I were paid to do it!!

What the?
This game to start out, looks great!Aside from looking great it may possibly rival early Nintendo versions for the worst MLB game ever made.First, you are introduced to the pitchers.They give you a small detail about the pitcher but no season statistics, so you do not know what you are up against.Secondly, to bat, you release the right trigger to swing.You are forced to use the analog thumb pad also.

At the end of the game, it tells you the winner, the loser, if there was a save & the homeruns.NO BOXSCORE!!!???I don't know about the majority but I like to base my players starting status on two things.1. Reality (the correct rosters) 2. Game to game statistics.If a player is slacking you have no way of knowing.You can't check in the middle of the game to see what the player is batting on the game.And if you want to change pitchers, you must also call it blind, as they provide no information as to what your players' ERAs might be.Usually games will tell you when a player steps up to bat, how they have faired in that particular game, along with season stats.Here they only provide season stats.I would like a 1-1 today, 2 for 3, etc.

This game is not fun.I gave it 2 stars because it looks good.Don't bother buying this game.It will only frustrate you, unless you care nothing for real game play.

not their best
I've been touting the Dream Cast's sports game for some time now. Generally they are some of the best--NFL 2K, NBA 2K, Virua Tennis... I suppose it shouldn't come as a surprise that sooner or later I'd find one that isn't that great. And I'm not surprised it is the baseball game. Unlike football and basketball, there really is no movement in a baseball game, which I think is partially responsible for how much I dislike this game. Just being baseball itself. Add that to a difficulty in pitching and batting, and the problems with fielding a ball and you've got a game that isn't real great (I remember a nintendo baseball game that was more fun, even if the graphics weren't that great). I will say that the stadiums and graphics are beautiful, but it takes more than a pretty picture to make a fun game. And this game isn't much fun.

Not Sega's Best Work
Pros: Graphics- The best thing on this game is the graphics.All the players look EXACTLY like the real players.Player piching and batting moves are wonderfully done.The stadium shots were also incredible.
Cons: The commitator for this game gets REALY montonious.He says the same thing over and over again.Also, the fielding on the game was horrible.All of it was automatic.It frustrating to see players not catch balls that are hit right at them.

Over all the game was okay. ... Read more

IT ROCKS!!
Its an awsome game you can do the most cool roller coasters!!!!
If your not a rollercoaster lover like me you will still like this game,I love it!

Coasters RULE!!
You heard me I looooovvvveeee Roller Coasters. Here is a tip if u love Coasters like me get the game! If u think coasters are ok rent it. If u HATE(gasp) Coasters then stay away from this game. You can tell I have been on roller coasters and I have Roller Coaster Tycoon so I'm a Roller Coaster Freak! For those who don't like roller coasters try to rent it, for the rest of u GET THE GAME!!!

Coaster Works - Really feels like a simulator!
Coaster Works - simply two addicting words.This game is one of the first I've ever played ( I'm a coaster enthusiast ) where you really feel like you are on the coaster.The graphics are great, too!You have no limits ( except for height, but it can still be, like, 300 feet high! )You can go vertical, do any possible inversion, and the thrill is just amazing.
(...)It is SO worth it.I'm telling you, it's one of the best games I've played in my life.It's easy to play, you don't need any extra software, it's educational, and at times, it's challenging.Awesome!

Highly Educational
If you are an avid gamer and are looking for VERY DETAILED graphics and a HUGE plot don't look at this game, look at Shenmue. This is very educational because it shows the gravity and actual physics needed to create a roller coaster.

i think coaster works is the illest game ive ever seen son.that means i think it was cool ... Read more

Good... for a Week
Flag to Flag is an interesting DreamCast racing game based upon the 1998 CART season.It is perhaps ironic that CART's title sponsor in the 1998 season (and thus seen prominently in the game), FedEx, has recently announced (as of the writing of this review) that it will no longer be the title sponsor as of the 2003 CART season... and after this past weekend's fiasco at Surfer's Paradise in Australia, I can certainly understand why :-(

The main note that may scare away potential Flag to Flag players is that car control is available ONLY by using the analog stick above the D-pad >:-( This makes car control for aggressive drivers (such as myself) extremely difficult at best, especially on road courses (such as Road America or Burke Lakefront) or street courses (such as Toronto or Detroit).This issue is not quite as glaring when racing at the oval-style circuits (such as Miami homestead).Therefore, those unfamiliar with analog-stick driving who do not have a good amount of time to spend perfecting this driving skill should probably stay away from Flag to Flag.This game does fortunately support a racing wheel; I do not own one, but I suspect that car control will be MUCH easier for players using a racing wheel.

Flag to Flag contains only two race modes: Arcade and Championship.This means, unfortunately, that only the most diehard of CART racing fans will be keeping this game for any immense length of time.There are no unlockable items, no bonuses to be gained, no goals to attain (other than simply winning races), so it may be best to just borrow this game from a friend, or from a store which permits games to be returned simply for not liking them.

For those who simply want to start racing, this is the place to begin.Arcade Mode races are rather short, however - generally only three or four laps in length - so those looking for longer races should instead turn to Championship Mode (see below).Arcade Mode supports both single-player and two-player capabilities.Since these races are rather short, the player(s) will have very little time to try to maneuver up through the field, which makes the analog-stick car control issue mentioned above all the more crucial to success.Interestingly, players are always kept appraised of the driver of the next car ahead on the circuit (regardless of whether there is a difference in consecutive position and/or laps completed), which will help in learning to recognize which drivers are in which cars (by colors, logos, etc.).

Championship Mode is a single-player mode with the goal of winning the CART Drivers Championship for the 1998 season using all of the nineteen 1998 race venues in the actual calendar order.The Drivers Championship is won by having the most points at the end of the nineteen rounds of the season; at each race, the top twelve drivers receive from 1 to 21 points, with the other fifteen entrants not receiving any points.Obviously, consistency across all nineteen rounds of the (1998) CART season is key to winning the Drivers Championship.Fortunately, there are three difficulty levels for Championship Mode; selecting Easy at the beginning of the Championship Mode season will give the player a far better chance of attaining consistency (and wins) throughout the season. It is important to note that Championship Mode is the only mode in the game which permits car set-up customization.

Overall, Flag to Flag is an interesting game... but only for a while.In less than a week, all but a very few diehard CART fans will likely tire of this game and move on to other games.One must keep this in mind when considering buying Flag to Flag.

AI is absolutely horrible
Don't get mewrong.It's a fun game, but the AI is just the worst ever.Each time you play, you can expect all the cars to do pretty much the same thing every time.I think this was a fairly early title, which does explain things.But go with something better like Daytona.

CART racing at its best!
I first played this game on my demo cd that came with my Dreamcast. The controls took about a few laps to get proficient with, but afterwards, hurdling through turns at crazy speeds becomes almost second nature. I can't get enough of this game! Basically, this game has two modes: Career & Arcade.

Unlike most other games I've played, this one I can play alone for hours without getting bored. I usually tire of playing single player mode with most games, and only play them with friends. This is Flag to Flag's strength. I can play an entire season and still come back for more. There are a lot of different tracks. From city streets to ovals to airport runways.

I started this game on Easy mode, then eventually switched to the medium difficulty, and now play at the hardest level. Also, the AI for the other racers is excellent.

Before the race, you can adjust almost every feature with the cars. From the tire types, to aerodynamics, to the gear ratio. This is one the most detailed racing game I've ever played.

Worth buying for sure!

Sweet Ride
I love this game. Very realistic graphics and driving sim. I've actually driven one of these tracks (RoadAmerica in Wisconsin) and the sim here is flawless. One could definitely 'learn' a track using this game. Perhaps a little forgiving, but the ability to actually drive the FULL LENGTH race if you want...for up to an hour and half lets you really experience how intense a real race can be. This game also really makes you practice your concentration. Highly recommended for people trying to develop their racing skills! Love my Dreamcast!

Very fun, a good racing game
Sure, the game has its problems - that display in the cockpit always shows zeroes (not real information like other games).As well as the lack of a tachometer with numbers (you end up using your ears - still effective). But the game more than makes up for those problems.It has very goodcontrols and a great deal of customizability (a VMU or other memory card isa must).Also the graphics are very good - high quality and very smooth. It has an excellent variety of tracks and drivers as well.Easily the bestreality based racing game for a console that I have played.Definitelyworth buying for anyone who wants realistic, open wheel racing without aPC. ...

Another great game for the Dreamcast
Who can say the Dreamcast is really dead when quality game after quality game comes out? Sports Jam is no exception. A port of the arcade game, Sports Jam is a button mashing fest of 12 events from various sports. Some of the events include a 3 point basketball shootout, a home-run derby, a soccer corner kick and penalty shootout game, a putting golf game, a football field kicking game and a football running game. Most of these events require you to mash the buttons as fast as you can just like their cousins, Decathelete and Winter Heat on the Sega Saturn. The graphics are excellent and the sound is great with an announcer and all. The most fun with Sports Jam is with 2 players; you'll end up playing this for hours with friends. The only problem is that the game will get repetitive after a while but for the amount of fun Sports Jam is, it's well worth buying it. ... Read more
