How is your Dreamcast gaming going on?

Noise, how do you like NBA 2k2?

You got me to start playing it again, and it is seriously additive.

2002-2005 was really the best years for basketball games. They came a long way only for the next gen systems to set bball games back 10 years.

What difficulty do you guys play on?

I've seen you guys rock teams 70 to 14.

I'm playing on the default setting, which is Rookie since I had never played an NFL 2K before. I'm planning to play 2K1 in the next difficulty and then 2K2 in the hardest.

Got these today...

I actually still have my old copy of AF:O laying around, do you guys know if there are still active private servers running it? I quit playing my DC games online when Sega shut down the free servers, it would be cool to play it again after all these years. I tried googling, but mainly just found really old Racketboy and DC-Talk threads.

there are not. The only DC games still playable online as of right now are:

4x4 Evolution
Doom (homebrew port)
Maximum Pool Online
Phantasy Star Online V. 1 & 2
Planet Ring
Quake III Arena
Sega Swirl
Starlancer

AF:O's multiplayer heavily relied on Segas servers. So it may be possible to eventually play the Arcade version online via an emulator, but the console version is sadly a singleplayer affair going forward.

Thanks for the list, I really appreciate it. I'm not really feeling PSO right now but I may have to get in on it down the line. Also, thanks for that definitive answer fastbilly, I found old posts on other boards claiming people were actually working on a private server for AF:O which had me confused. Funny that this came up, TechDirt actually had an op ed about it today. http://www.techdirt.com/articles/201403 ... -own.shtml
