Andy- Regarding " small companies and diapers"....Yes my two best investments; Elliot and Drake are still in diapers. Saw this about Dreamcast on FGN Online: >> Dreamcast: Top secret details of Sega's behind-closed-doors presentation of the super console at ECTS have been leaked to FGN Online. Here's what happened in London yesterday.... Our man was ushered with the rest of the chosen few into the small room at the Hilton Olympia. Inside was a finished Dreamcast with a version of Sonic Adventures in the machine. When the machine was switched on, a white screen appeared with the Dreamcast logo in black. The loading time of the game was, according to our source, incredibly quick. The first four minutes of the first level of Sonic was shown and everyone present was completely amazed by what they saw. The speed of the game and the quality of the graphics are absolutely stunning. According to our source, this game will be truly amazing: "From the hardcore gamers point of view, you will want to play this game." The people attending from Sega informed the viewers that three titles that will be ready to ship with the machine's launch in Japan: Sonic Adventures, Virtua Fighter RPG and Sega Rally 2. People were allowed to fully examine the console: the modem fits into the top right-hand side of the machine, and there are two triggers on the underside of the handset. The handsets also have ports for two VMSs each. A video was also shown at the event, showing sequences of Sonic Adventures, Sega Rally 2 and Daytona 2.<< Andrew
