Karous is so far my favorite shmup, it has cell shaded graphics and you have three weapons that you can level up. I was actually able to get it really cheap (for a late DC shmup) only $50. Why get burned copies when you can buy the game? ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19634944.post-81564201084158668492008-11-17T22:12:00.000+00:002008-11-17T22:12:00.000+00:00dcforums' still around?

Anyway, there are still a lot of free sites out there with dc isos.<BR/><BR/>Tomleecee, don't give up yet. What speed are you burning at? The DC likes slower speeds, around 8x-16x. And do you always use the same brand of cd's? Consoles in general can be very picky about the brand, so try a couple of different ones.<BR/><BR/>About the software, Discjuggler is usually the best, but Alcohol 120% is not bad either, in fact it's what I've used to burn my last cd's.NebachadnezzaRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16756898898698386158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19634944.post-56512522880309028732008-11-17T22:09:00.000+00:002008-11-17T22:09:00.000+00:00I'm a bit thick when it comes to stuff like that G...I'm a bit thick when it comes to stuff like that GM. I don't have a good track record when it comes to downloading and burning games so I'll just leave it to people who have more patience.

Did you ever sign up to dcforums? I'm not sure if they're an good now but they've been good for me in the past. I don't tend to burn much games now, only ones I know I'd have to splash out stupid money for. Plus CD-R's ae about the same price as A4 paper now. =)Animated AFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04550837973910959680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19634944.post-55949610099246180122008-11-17T19:05:00.000+00:002008-11-17T19:05:00.000+00:00Anonymous - I looked at that site, paid the joinin...Anonymous - I looked at that site, paid the joining fee, downloaded some cdi images and burnt them with both Boot Dreams and Discjuggler and guess what...NONE OF THEM WORKED!!! What a fucking surprise, eh? THAT'S why I buy burned games. It avoids the inevitable disappointment because I know they'll work when I put them in my Dreamcast.<BR/><BR/>Sonny boy - thanks for the comment. Homebrew games are something I'd love to explore further, but as with my above experience, they never seem to work when I download and burn them...Tom Charnockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05593308178739317252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19634944.post-86341244147422567312008-11-17T14:20:00.000+00:002008-11-17T14:20:00.000+00:00I was published on Teletext a couple of times unde...I was published on Teletext a couple of times under my other name of My Other Car's a Hippo.<BR/><BR/>Great games there and good mini reviews.
