Ouch, it sounds like they were rough on it. What features from the Gamecube are DLC on this version?

I don't know for sure, I'll have to check when it comes out on PSN. It probably has the mission mode and gamegear games.

Just in case anyone was unaware of this, Guardian Hereos was ported to the Xbox with the classic graphics and remix graphics. And yes, it is still an amazing game.

All those dreamcast games ported on those more recent consoles is a good thing, but for me, it's often a bit expensive, for ports : if there was the start of an emulation why not but...
BUT for all the gamers who haven't play all those great games yet (the poors !!!) why not ? :)

Oh, I forgot about this topic. A couple of weeks ago, I saw a retail release for some of the Dreamcast games that were released on Xbox Live. It was called Dreamcast Collection and contained four games. I don't recall what all of them were, but there was a Sonic game and I believe Space Channel 5. I'm not sure when this retail release came about, but it was in the cheap game bin at Kmart, as I recall.

Yes, this dreamcast colletion was avaiable in Europe too ! Th games are as follows : Space Channel 5 part 2, Sonic Adventure DX, Bass Fishing and Crazy taxi.
Not too bad ! Even if fishing games aren't really interesting for me ;)

I downloaded Crazy Taxi for 360. Not a bad game. Fun little time waster.

Crazy Taxi is a great game ! And the Offspring music with it is great too : I've played a lot on this game on the famous (and too early dead :( ) Dreamcast console :(
