Just wanted to note that Star Wars Jedi Power Battles was awesome for multiplayer as well. Especially for Star Wars fans who weren’t really gamers. I’d love to see a non-shitty remake of it though for next gen.

Anyone know a good multiplayer Quest-like adventure/RPGish game? I was hoping Phantasy Star v.2 was multi offline but I guess thats ep. 1 and 2 for the Cube… perhaps I should just ebay that guy. I’d appeciate any suggestions even if it doesnt fully meet the criterion specified. I love the site, keep up being sick.

Yeah it probably was rushed a lot — it wasn’t typical Sega quality in that era…

I don’t know if anyone really loved Sonic Shuffle, of course, I don’t think anyone really loved Pen Pen Tri Icelon either.

It’s the only game of that sort on the Dreamcast, if I’m not mistaken. That game actually had alot of potential! I read an old EGM that had a picture of Sonic saying “Sega Strikes Back!”, with their new catalogue of games and a bunch of awesome online/VMU mp3 player ideas. They were saying that Sega’s real killer app was gonna be “Sonic Square” (which we now, regrettably, know as Sonic Shuffle). The game was supposed to be like Mario Party, except online. From reading the article I got the feeling that Sonic Square was supposed to have LOADS of minigames, features, and other content, but the Sonic Shuffle that we got was rushed to the market as not even half the game it was meant to be, because of the impending shadow of the PS2 looming.

Eeh — I really didn’t like Sonic Shuffle…
It could have been good, but the load times were horrible and the “fun” stuff didn’t come close to Mario Party (which I’m not a huge fan of anyway)

I’m not a huge fan of it, (but then again, I’ve never played it with a group of people… I’ll have to try that sometime here soon…) but I’m a bit shocked that Sonic Shuffle didn’t find its way on here.
