There is not any commecial software being released for the Dreamcast anymore that I know of, only the free stuff at sites like
www.dcemulation.com and
consolevision.com.
Legerdemain: You are hitting the nail right on the head when you talk about the PS2, it IS definatly an overrated piece of crap, and no the consumer does not care about quality, otherwise we would all be running Amigas instead of PC's and Macs, and we would live in a world we're people don't think that muti-tasking was something Bill Gates came up with in 95.
As for the XBOX, it is definatly better than the Gamecube, not only does the Hard Drive give it more capabilities than a non-hard drive system such as faster loading times, and more random events per level, costum musick, ect. But the crappy CPU is faster then the PS2 by FAR, and perhaps still faster than the Cube's PPC, though I am not totally sure on that part. On the other hand ATI could not compare graphically at the time, thus the XBOX does provide more polys per second, and has lighting effects, and other extra effects that did not exsist on any other graphic chips during the period these 3 systems were made. On top of all this the XBOX has double the RAM of the PS2, and about 20Mb more than the Cube, so you can not say a system with less RAM can pull off the same feats, in Sony's case you can't do a THING cause you are stuck with 4Mb video RAM, and on top of that there is no compression, which means you are going to use that 4MB up QUICK, which is somethign the Dreamcast was good at, it had 8Mb video RAM with compression to boot which basically means the Dreamcast could infact pull off quite a number of stunts the PS2 will NEVER do!
I am not saying the Cube sux though, I am just saying the XBOX is the best bang for the buck, ecspecially once you mod it....
