This is why I love Racketboy - you guys are awesome! I've looked at everyone's suggestions on Youtube and Ebay and I'm making a list of games to buy; thanks for all your help! Keep the suggestions coming!

Re: What are the best Dreamcast games that AREN'T shooters?
You've come to the right place. Let me group these for faster reading. Many people suggested good stuff so far, so I might be repeating a few.
Of course I'd suggest shmups but that's such a small section of the DC library (except in Japan it seems)
Sports titles -- DC's in house productions from Sega are all good bets. The NFL2K series for example. Be sure to see Sports Jam which is like 12 games in 1.
Racing -- Check out Hydro Thunder, Test Drive 6, Sega Rally 2, the awesome F355 Challenge, and even Flag to Flag CART Racing. Also a great port of Daytona USA is out there to get.
Arcade Ports -- I can go on and on. Soul Calibur, Project Justice, Crazy Taxi 1 & 2, Marvel vs Capcom 1 & 2, SNK vs. Capcom, King of Fighters 99 (port of KOF 98), Tech Romancer, Power Stone 1 & 2, Silent Scope, Dynamite Cop, Gauntlet Legends, Street Fighter Alpha 3, Confidential Mission, House of the Dead 2, Virtual On Oratorio Tangram, so many many many more.
Horror & such -- Illbleed is the one DC exclusive to have. Also check out all the Resident Evil games that received excellent DC portage (RE2 & 3, Code Veronica) -- also Zombie Revenge, and also see about D2.
What else? -- Shenmue for sure. Airforce Delta is sweet, Typing of the Dead is nice if you can snag a keyboard, also Quake 3 Arena and Unreal Tournament for your FPS needs. I've also enjoyed MDK2 and Fur Fighters is hard to find but also fun.
We're only scratching the surface here so whatever you can see or grab you won't be disappointed.

Am I the only one that hates the people that keep posting example of games that have superior versions on other consoles?

For example?
Also be aware that if something is superior is subjective and that doesn't fault the other version. A good game on a system is still a good game.

My scheduling skills have died of dysentery; I hope to visit at least on a monthly basis.

Record of Lodoss War is a pretty snazzy Diablo-a-like to consider. Takes place after the original anime series I believe.

Re: What are the best Dreamcast games that AREN'T shooters?
I'd prefer people at least mention the superior versions.
