That is quite a list of games, none of which I've ever heard of. Typing of the Dead looks cool although I wonder how you'd do typing with a gamepad?

you need the dreamcast keyboard

and those are just the games with original concepts, the list of great games that follow a tried and tested formula is much longer. the shmups and fighters list alone has like 30 great games on it, and there are light gun games, platformers, first person shooters, racers and sports games that were all the best games in their respective genres at the time

in addition to innovating online multiplayer with a headset (outrigger, pso 1/2, ooga booga, bomberman online, alien front online, quake3, chu chu, etc), it also invented the concept that was later adopted by nintendo with the wii u / switch. the dreamcast controller had a removable handheld in the middle of it that you could load mini games onto

I created a gog account only to get MDK2. I discovered all the secrets on the demo CD and it left an itch that has not been scratched.
