DC-UK (November 1999)

Source: DC-UK – Issue Number 3 – November 1999



The Dreamcast was Sega’s last console and one of my favorites. Unfortunately, it led a relatively short life and magazines for that system were few and short lived. Issue number 3 of DC-UK, a Dreamcast magazine published in the U.K., from November 1999, includes the following:

Features

  • The Padstow Bass Project – Sega Bass Fishing incensed us to try some of that angling stuff ourselves. However, we didn’t allow for freak weather conditions or vengeful seagull attacks.
  • Return to the Forbidden Planet – The Saturn has been almost universally slammed, but some of its games were actually rather good. These are the ones we’d like to see updated for Dreamcast.
