Arrow Best Dreamcast games?

I've got a Dreamcast lying around- I might as well use the thing.

2nd games should be cheap now- what are the best games to get?


Cheers

Hi Nathan,
if you haven't already got it then Soul Calibur would be a good one.
Metropolis Street Racer is similiar to Project Gotham Racing On the Xbox.
Silent Scope if you like the arcde style shoot em up. Very good but you can't use a gun it.

It never came out officially but there is a disc going round - its very good apart from the frame rate does drop in places and the loading is slow.
Theres lots of great Emulators that are well worth getting on Dc aswell.

I've got Soul Caliber- excellent game.

Also Phantasy Star Online- OK but lacking compared to FF7.

How much is the SCART RGB cable? (I did have a S-Video but it's gone missing)
