John Hancock shows some more of his favorite Dreamcast games that very few collectors know about.

The visual differences in Bleem! are really quite striking... Hopefully that came across in the video well...

Dammit Metal Jesus thanks for reminding me I still need to buy Seaman and I'm broke as hell. Great video though, when will we see part 3? I feel like the dreamcast library is 99% hidden gems

Another great video, always entertaining to watch!

I really like Alien Front, any Dreamcast owner should really get this exclusive. Forget the "online microphone", check out the unique sideways driving trigger controls. Even though only a few areas of Jungle, Snow, Washington, Japan and Alien World; the tank is a real kick circling an enemy working the triggers and the analog stick. I don't know why more "Frag" console games did not take advantage of this method of control. Also love "driving" as the Alien Walker, the mechanical robot effect slamming each movement step is very well done especially from the internal view. :D

Thanks for reminding me of that Magnetic Neo game, a nice exclusive I need to break out again. :)

Love Bleem with the dedicated PS1 Metal Gear Solid conversion disc. Though not as high res as the PC Metal Gear Microsoft sponsored game, a very nice way to play it on the big screen. I have all three Bleems as well as the official PC Bleem (Frys sold all of these locally years ago) and unofficial Dreamcast multi game releases. A mixed bag for the additional PS1 game upscale, some work well while others are choppy. A shame the official Bleempod controller was never released to accommodate the additional buttons needed to work specifically with Bleem. Medievil comes to mind, the missing Select button.

funny, after watching this video I was reminded that I should probably sell Seaman since I'll never actually spend a month "playing" it. :lol:

I really find the idea of Seaman interesting, but it doesn't seem like something I'd enjoy spending real time on.
