Good grab on CvS 2.

Did the DC port have online matches?

not sure. Maybe. There's an ONLINE option in the menu, though it doesn't matter now of course. Actually wait, I think CD AGES said that back in the day you could actually play CvS2 on DC vs. PS2 players even.

Huh. That's neat.

I'm surprised that there isn't a revamp on PSN with online play; I'd be all over that shit.

I imagine that liscensing issues would hold that up, though.

I will be playing dreamcast all day tomorrow. I don't know what im going to play though. I feel like maybe some midway classics like nfl blitz and hydro thunder and some san Francisco rush 2049. Then some Capcom fighters. I have been craving for some nba showtime though.

How can you go online when there is no Seganet or whatever the online service was called?

And who still uses dial-up? Maybe somewhere in the middle of Africa but not in the modern world. Its almost useless given the average website still needs loading time with high-speed connection

There are private servers (or some official servers) still up for 7 or so games.
And who still uses dial-up?
I have a bundle deal for my cable, TV, internet - so I have a landline in my house. There are free ISP's out there you can use to dialup.
