You could put together a strong argument that Dreamcast had a similar level of originality too. Jet Set Radio, Crazy Taxi, Powerstone, Samba Di Amigo, Seaman, Shenmue were all games that were risk taking because they didn't have much of a template to build from.
- ofrzeta 4y agoRez was amazing as well.
- nanna 4y agoRez was incredible, true. Shenmue and Shenmue II were also Sega at it's best. Seaman was bloody weird and very ahead of its time - too far perhaps, it was a real struggle to get that critter to understand my voice. Maybe because of my London accent? I had the impression it might have been better for Americans. Samba Di Amigo was also great - Sonic Team once again - though I remember struggling to get the maracas working. I might have had unofficial ones. Jet Set Radio was like nothing else too. I didn't have enough friends to get the most out of Powerstone. I would add Phantasy Star Online - Sonic Team! I was never crazy about Crazy Taxi, it never felt like it survived the transition to console from the arcades, where it ruled. What a shame for videogames that Sonic Team was, I assume, disbanded along with the Dreamcast? I'm not
- lostgame 4y agoSonic Team was not disbanded along with the Dreamcast, but - AFAIK - still exists, however; Yuji Naka left in 2005(?) during Sonic ‘06’s disastrous development. He’s recently ended up in legal trouble after the shitshow that was Balan Wonderworld. Oh; how the mighty have fallen. :(
- doublerebel 4y agoRez Infinite survives as a VR/Quest port! Really fun to re-play immersed in the system.
