And will you be going online with it? I've yet to play a game online with my Dreamcast, even though I did use the Shenmue Passport disc quite a bit (doesn't count I guess). But Daytona online? Woohoo! Now we separate the men from the boys.

you mean you haven't been playing PSO online? where have you been! you're only missing out on the best game on the dreamcast!
seriously though, Daytona looks really cool, and has something like 8 tracks which is great. I don't know how it will be playing with a controller instead of a steering wheel, but it's got to be an awful lot of fun racing against other people. It's no fun shoving computer cars out of the way, but other people - that's just cool!
I can see it now though - people playing in locked games to avoid people just driving the wrong way on the track trying to hit everyone, VMU dupers who copy their game data to have all the cars unlocked, etc, etc, etc.....

Righteous there Kahuna - thanks for the tips! I probably would have been beating my head against the wall figuring that stuff out. I'm gonna snag the game tomorrow.
Oh, and I haven't bought PSO because it just doesn't sound like fun to me. I'm more of a traditional RPG guy, so I opted to go with Grandia 2 at the time. Battling online through countless dungeons with no real story to motivate me just sounds boring. Maybe I'm wrong though. Or I'm getting old and set in my ways.
