Playing "Ecco" is like transforming your room into a submersible underwater vehicle, with your tv screen being your window into the ocean depths.

Definitely the new best fishing game on the Dreamcast, thanks to it's wider variety of fish over "Bass Fishing," as well as all it's extras that give it solid replay value, another aspect missing from "Bass Fishing."

To paraphrase one of my favorite lines from the movie Jurassic Park, "There are... um, Disney characters, in this... uh, Disney game, right?"

Far from perfect, but as a virtual pet simulation, it's the best of it's kind.

It's definitely not a bad game, just very short, even by arcade standards. But if all you're looking for is a fun shooter, Cannon Spike delivers the goods.

One of the nice things about Star Wars Demolition, at least for those of us who don't take the Jedi religion seriously, is that the game is pure action, void of any of that Star Wars cheesiness and horribly lame dialog.

An excellent effort that no shooter fan should overlook. The gameplay is solid even if it is a little on the difficult side, the graphics are decent, it has excellent replay value, and the overall presentation is top notch.

If historical accuracy isn't a big deal for you and you're willing to put up with an occasional boring mission, Iron Aces is worth a look.

It's not the best racer on the system, but it's mix of racing with destruction derby action makes it one of the most unique racers the Dreamcast has to offer.

It may be fun for a while as a rental, but it's certainly not worth buying, not when Daytona USA 2001 is right around the corner.

The various modes of play and excellent multiplayer aspects do a good job of keeping things fresh, but sooner or later, you'll find it tough not to look at NBA Hoopz as tired and cheap, and that dreaded "been there, done that" feeling will rear it's ugly head.

Sega has the lightgun shooter formula down to perfection with Confidential Mission as you're bombarded by terrorists coming at you from every direction with guns blazing.

The graphics are everything we've come to expect from Sega's Naomi-based arcade games, and the ultra-fluid frame rate makes up for any realism the graphics may be lacking. But unless the arcade experience at home is enough for you, 18 Wheeler will ultimately leave you disappointed.

A flawed game, but much better than the PSX version, and even with it's problems, anyone who loves Star Wars or action games will enjoy it.

At a bargain price of only $19.99 US, you won't be disappointed, at least not with the graphics. You won't have any complaints with the soundtrack either, as each stage has its own unique, fully orchestrated musical score. The game's length and replay value are another story though.

Destined to be forgotten. Don't waste your time with this one.

You can quite easily play through the entire game in under 10 minutes.

One glaring problem made even more apparent by the Royal Rumble match is the game's character selection, or lack of.

An almost complete lack of gameplay, very cheesy dialog, and a whole lot of boring repetition keep Kenji Eno's latest creation from being anything more than a complete dud, which could be what the D stands for (just kidding... I think).

With its sluggish controls, odd collision detection problems, quirky gameplay mechanics, slow pace, and lousy camera angles, Illbleed may succeed at being an interesting idea but fails at transforming that idea into a worthwhile game.

There are no words to describe the emptiness this game leaves you with after months of built-up excitement.

You'd probably have more fun dusting off your old Genesis or SNES system and popping in "Castle Of Illusion." You'll get the exact same gameplay as DDGC, without all the added disappointment.

The graphics are much improved, but it's still the same ol' tired gameplay of button mashing.

The control and camera angles are both horrible, the graphics are N64 quality at best (which is not what you'd hope for from a game based on the "Toy Story" license running on a 128-bit system), the missions are simple and repetitive, and even the humor and charm of the "Toy Story" movies are missing.

All the elements are here for what could have been an above-average arcade racer, but the developers left out the most important aspect of any racing game - the excitement.

With the exception of the graphics, Sonic Shuffle does everything wrong. Don't be fooled by the visuals. Even fans of Sonic (and I'm one of them) will be extremely disappointed.

Having this game on the Dreamcast is an insult, and Acclaim needs to know that we won't put up with this type of garbage. Stay away from Jeremy McGrath Supercross 2000 at all cost. It's not worth even thinking about.

Easily the biggest problem with Charge 'N Blast is that it has zero replay value. The only thing that was added to the home version was a Time Attack mode where you can see how fast you can make it through each level. Wow, I'm excited.
