Just look for torrents. You can play burned games on the DC with no mods necessary.

I was always a fan of the Fire Pro Wrestling games, and there's one on there but I don't know if it's any good.
Also Kiss: Psycho Circus: The Nightmare Child :shifty:

I loved the Dreamcast.
Soul Calibur. The Sonic games were pretty fun. Marvel vs Capcom 2 if you haven't played it yet.
If you like heavy metal music/weird fighting games check out Heavy Metal Geomatrix.

There's a giant scratch on the first one. How dare you abuse one of those beautiful machines. :mad:

Yeah, that and WWF Attitude (?) were pretty much the exact same game and they were awful.
Dunno if anyone mentioned Jet Set Radio yet but that game was a riot and it's all I can think of since Power Stone and Shenmue were named.

Jet Set Radio was awesome. So was Crazy Taxi and the first Sonic.

The story to Shenmue got me really involved in it, loved it so much, I would definately say Shenmue is a must. Think after playing the first one, you will want the second too, still wish I knew what happened with the rest of the story!

Yu Suzuki recently tweeted that he thinks he can buy the Shenmue rights from Sega. God I hope he's right.

And watch Sega cock block for no other reason than to eventually release digital re-releases with no plans for a part three. Or worse yet, start production on part three with no input from Suzuki.
Both outcomes are more realistic than Yu working on a proper sequel.

They can keep on taking their time. I still haven't really gotten around to getting into Shenmue 2.

I'm pretty happy I eBayed my Game Gear away and used that money to get a V1 Dreamcast. The only game I've completed on it is Seaman, because why the fuck not.

Spawn is fun, although it isn't very deep - it's a port of the arcade game that came out around that time.
It basically consists of your character (and a 2nd player if you have one) running through area-type stages, and killing enemies until the boss appears, at which point you have a short amount of time to kill him. You progress through a series of 6 stages or so until you confront Malebolgia.
I will say the final boss is disappointing, but there are tons of characters so there is more replay value than a standard arcade port. So if you're a fan of the comics then I would recommend picking it up.
