In June of 2000, gamers the world over were introduced to something, that at the time was just a Dreamcast game, but would later be revered as a transition for the medium. Gravitating away from just being simply entertainment, but being appreciated as an art form; Jet Set Radio was that turning point and to this day remains one of the most important games released on any platform–and also the main reason why you should play it.
Another day another deal. Today at Amazon you can score the Dreamcast Collection for Xbox 360 for $19.99. At this price is not a bad deal because it includes 4 Dreamcast classics (Sonic Adventure, Crazy Taxi, Sega Bass Fishing, and Space Channel 5 Part 2) for about $5 a pop. So if you are a Dreamcast enthusiast today is your lucky day. Head on over to Amazon from this link to get your copy. Happy shopping.
This is the first trade-in deal I have ever posted and I probably won’t do it often (unless it is something dynamite). I just thought today’s deal was particularly awesome and a bit peculiar. If you agree to trade-in your Sega Dreamcast today at Amazon they will give you a $40 dollar gift card (Amazon is only giving $40 for a 20GB Xbox 360). Pretty sweet right. I am all for anything Dreamcast and maybe the DC is making a huge comeback and getting that recognition it finally deserves. I will not be parting with Dreamcast, but If you feel like being a heretic or just a huge bag of suck then you can offload it for 40 big ones. Here is the link, go if you dare.
