Re: UKNM: Dreamcast vs Playstation

[manou]

Lee wrote that working on the interface on Dreamcast will make it hard to

giveaway.  I can believe that.  The question I have is will Sega's Dreamcast

push aside Playstation and the eventual Playstation 2 off the pole position.

Rumour has it that Playstation 2 will accommodate Playstation 1 games, as well

as access the Net.  With Sony's distribution strengths, does Dreamcast have a

chance.  keep in mind that Nintendo is also releasing its new box, and is

apparently moving away from cartridges to CD format.  It makes sense for Sega's

market penetration to create joint ventures with Internet partners...anything to

make Dreamcast a success...especially with Sony and Nintendo pulling up their

sleeves.


By the way...whatever happened to 3DO?  Is it completely dead and buried?  I

would love to read your comments...especially on partnerships.
