Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone here knowledgeable about the Dreamcast library could point me to all worthwhile local multi-player games on the system. Any format is fine, but up to 4 players is preferable. All I have at the moment is Power Stone 2 which is fun as hell, but I want to take advantage of the 3 extra controllers I was donated to by some friends.

Quake 3 arena and unreal tournament are two great games for four player multiplayer
>>
Heavy metal gyromatrix?
>>
chu chu rocket
>>
Ooga Booga

Red Dog is fun and doesn't get mentioned enough.
>>
>>3024632
Second the Heavy Metal Geomatrix. It's tons of fun.

San Francisco Rush 2049's stunt mode, Spawn: In The Demon's Hand, Bomberman Online, and Virtua Tennis are my sincere recommendations. If you don't play sports games, that last one may sound weird, but trust me that thing is a fucking treasure. I hate tennis and I love that game. It is tennis given form, and it is very very fun.

>given form

Given video game form, excuse me.
>>
Quake 3
Unreal Tournament
Power Stone 2
San Francisco Rush 2049 (awesome stunt mode and battle mode)
Dead or Alive 2 (I've only played singleplayer, but I'm pretty sure tag battle is 4 player)
I haven't played Chu Chu Rocket, but its 4 player looks really fun
>>
>>3024556
>>3025875

I'm gonna second this second. I don't think it's 4 player, but still very fun. Capcom has a ton of 3D arena fighters on the system and shooters, all great ports of the arcade counterparts. Virtual On and Tech Romancer are good for playing and having loser pass the controller, and so is Hydro Thunder (this may be 4 player? I forget.)

Check out Gauntlet Legends for 4 player goodness. Ooga Booga is a really weird 4 player third person arena shooter. Pretty fun in short bursts.

Stay the fuck away from Sonic Shuffle. A Sonic themed Mario Party clone sounds cool but they fucked it up beyond belief.

Seconding Spawn in the Demon's hand. I think you have to grind single player a bit to get all the characters, but hot damn is it fun once you do.
>>
>>3024556
Powerstone 2
Bomber man DC

Stop posting non retro shit on /vr/! The Dreamcast is 6th gen and non retro, keep this shit on /v/!

Kind of like how you're pretending this doesn't exist either:

It's not cropped though.

See for yourself.

GOOD THING DREAMCAST IS 5TH GEN.
>>
>>3029790
The Wiki image was cropped. The Dreamcast caveat is on the front page sticky.

At this point I'm quite certain the rules are written as they are solely for the entertainment of the writer, who delights in these very squabbles birthed by purposely contradictory language.
>>

I thought the cards were way more fair than the dice rolls (plus really nice with the vmu), the boards a lot more imaginative and the mini games a bit less bullshitty (I played Sonic shuffle first tho, and only one Mario party I may be a bit biased). The only bad thing I remember are the load times (but you're taking turns with your pals it is not as bad as if it was a more actiony game)

Armada is a good action rpg that support up to 4 players.

>>3029790
You do know that when rules conflict, the most recent ruling takes priority, right? This is a basic concept in rules. Even toddlers understand this.

Toy Commander is seriously underrated for multiplayer.

OP here, I was hoping /vr/ wouldn't have a shitposting loser like >>3029684 but I guess I was wrong. /v/ is just all kinds of terrible and it's sad when even an oasis like this gets the occasional junk food wrapper blown into it.

Anyways, I appreciate all the recommendations, especially the anon who mentioned Red Dog.

Vigilante 8 2nd Offence

These shitposters are an example of why /vr/ has been terrible for a while now. /v/ is a parasite that destroys every board it infests.

chu chu rocket
