Yeah, I really should have put in puzzle games. That's a shame, because I can't change it now. I should have consolidated 2D and 3D platformers into one.
And about Sega not trying FPS, they had a game for the Dreamcast called Outtrigger. It's similar to Quake III: Arena, but you can switch to a third person perspective. I haven't played much of it, but alot of people consider it the best arena FPS on the Dreamcast.
What Genre was Sega Best at?

I don't recall that many arena FPS's on the Dreamcast to begin with. Red Alarm is the best arcade flight game on the Virtual Boy, but that doesn't say much.Original_Name wrote:And about Sega not trying FPS, they had a game for the Dreamcast called Outtrigger.

Quake III: Arena and Unreal Tournament. Pretty rough competition for the time. I mean, there weren't a ton, but those were huge hits back in the day.MrPopo wrote:I don't recall that many arena FPS's on the Dreamcast to begin with.

Other... Sega is legendary for taking what we know about games and slapping us silly with it.
