I think you are right, it was on the cusp of games changing into the modern era but still a heavy emphasis on arcade ports and stuff that tied it to the past.
I'm still loving my new Dreamcast, got sucked into Tomb Raider 4 which I only loaded up to check it worked. Great game, I wish they'd do a new one in the same style
I think the arcade port thing is because the arcade boards were similar to the Dreamcast or something like that which made porting arcades to Dreamcast easily, kind of like the Neo-Geo I think.
The arcades from 97-2002 or so are unique and iconic of that era. I didn't realise there was a tomb raider 4 or might have forgot about it!
