Cool buy, dude!

I originally only had issues 4-12 and the demo discs, and just recently completed the collection via ebay. Took a few years to get all the demo discs and the premiere issue but it was worth it.

HEY! Since you write here now, perhaps you could occasionally feature an article from ODCM? Even a scan would be cool.

We could always use more additions.

@cube: we will hold onto our magazine until we die, and then we will be burned with them! (i believe I can speak for Supa)

Yup, I'll scan an article every now and then and write about it. Can't wait to get into reading them. Opened issue 0 today and glanced at a page that had a Shenmue image I had never seen before! This is going to be a lot of fun to get through them all.

Post by: cube_b3 on February 25, 2011, 03:31:45 pm: One day i'll have them all too.

But there will be a point in my life where I will work up the balls to get rid of my games. I have already decided to sell my Genesis/MegaDrive/CD/32x/Saturn games atleast the ones I've never played.

Post by: Nathan on February 25, 2011, 03:50:51 pm: What Saturn games do you have? I have yet to play some SEGA classics, and I really want to.

Post by: Sega Uranus on February 27, 2011, 11:34:18 am: I feel like an idiot for selling these off years ago. I also had a load of Official PlayStation Magazine too, but the lies and stupid shit they published all of the time only really opened my eyes to how retarded videogame journalism usually is, and to Sony's "Quality control".

Man, it was such a great feeling how the issues came in, was it bimonthly? I remember having huge events for each Dreamcast Magazine's arrival. Some of my most beloved game series originated from seeing them on there. Everything from Shenmue, to Dead or Alive to even Virtua Tennis, great stuff.

I remember really enjoying a Christmas comic they had in there in some issue, not sure which one - Or if it was even any good, but could someone scan those up and post them here? I would greatly appreciate it.

Post by: Barry the Nomad on February 27, 2011, 12:55:35 pm: I read the Xmas comic a few weeks ago, I'll scan it up today or tomorrow when I find time. :)
