New Dreamcast game- to include online???
Re: New Dreamcast game- to include online???
Does anyone even still have a land line 56k telephone line with an internet connection? I am all for a new dc game but this online play will never see the light of day!

Don't DSL connections have a 56K connection for backup purposes?

I don't remember anything being mentioned for any of the different DSL services I've had over the years.

Maybe it was just the service(s) I saw. I remember when my family was looking for a highspeed connection, one of the DSL services said something about a backup dial-up connection.

Re: New Dreamcast game- to include online???
You all seem to be missing the point of how important online play is to the Dreamcast. We haven't had a new online game for the system since it's cancellation, and only a handful of games are available online now, through convulted methods. An online game is the absolute best thing that can happen to the Dreamcast at this point.
Re: New Dreamcast game- to include online???
if it comes out i will be buying the game with out a doubt. If it has online play i will be very happy. my only problem is at the moment im not really sure i can get my DC to go online. and i don't have the DC DSL modum since it's kinda expensive.

How much are the broadband adapters worth. I ran across one for free and did not know it was worth money.

While a new online dreamcast game would be great, I am not going to get my hopes up for it. I just look forward to a new rpg!! If the online does happen though then it is all

You don't need a working dial-up connection to get online with the modem. See: http://www.ryochan7.com/blog/2009/07/11 ... iguration/
You can also do this with older versions of Windows (Windows 98 I think). I don't think it works in XP...at least I've never tried. The linux method works fine though and the speeds are more than bearable.
Looking forward to a new online game. Hell I may play some PSO this weekend now that you guys have brought up online DC games.
