I dunno if this has already been posted, but I dont remember ever seeing it. I was over at the official Dreamcast website (http://www.sega.com/games/dreamcast/...reamcast.jhtml) and I saw an interesting blurb of news, Online related:
As of August 1, 2002, we are ending our Dreamcast subscription service and opening up SegaNet servers to all online gamers. Dreamcast users will be able to enjoy free unlimited head-to-head online gameplay on SegaNet through the end of 2002. At that time, Sega will shift focus to supporting new online titles for other platforms, and servers for Sega-published Dreamcast games may close down.
This is interesting. I just hope that the huge fanbase of Dreamcast owners figure out a way to keep dreamcast online (Gamespy tunnel software etc). Ive found sites that give tutorials on installing Linux on a dreamcase unit etc, so Im sure that its not to difficult.
