Just this week there is a Sega Sale on steam and now I've been wating for at least a 50% off sale on the Dreamcast collection since only 2 of the 4 games even interest me (Sonic Adventure DX and Crazy Taxi) and wow... Sega really broke em well not so heavy on Space Channel 5 Part 2 and Sega Bass Fishing but on the 2 more popular ones Sonic and Crazy Taxi!
Where to start...
Sonic Adventure DX is a Broken mess which is actually far worse than the original PC Release which would have made more sence to use that and update it a little, for some reason sega whipped the slate clean and reported it
Right off the back the Config Menu doesn't work. just plain does not work you have to move the Config.ini from the game folder to Documents/Sega/SonicAdventureDX then manually edit it for changes to take effect... then there's the ingame issues
Well on level 1 ive fallen through the floor twice at a clipping point and done some wierd things all in one small section, in this video i try to recreate my falling though the floor but end up doing a whole load of other bugs instead but you will see the clipping point (especially in the 2nd attempt)
I've fallen through another platform or two in the second level...
Oh Also dont alt tab
Also how comes this new release cannot do 1080p unboxed but the original release could by just giving a wider viewing angle?
Crazy Taxi.... well the config menu actually works in this one and is the only one out of the four that did work but Sega still mess it up. The Menu Guys voice is of a horrid quality, they removed the original music and all the real world stores for other place holders. hell if you stay still and wait you cant even hear the guy speak over the music complain you have to pick up someone.
Then again other than Sound issues the game seems to perform solidly.. I just got to work out how to replace the music and ill be all set.
The other 2 seem to work ok except there config menu although none of these games although have pre configured layouts for the 360 controller actually show them in game which is rather annoying when say trying to test Space Channel 5 Part 2 its telling me to press S to shoot... wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't a music game (which btw it was A on a 360 controller)
Well Sega said they would fix this mess.... 7 Months ago. good old Sega have not done anything actually.
Thankfully I got it all for only 2.49€ and i spose its worth that much but Sega really need to get there act together even there ports are getting lazier by the minute
Just wanted to vent my displeasure and see if others have similar thoughts and feelings on it
