- Does moving back to classicgaming serve to improve the site or did you have to take away too much information for it to be an improvement just yet?
To be perfectly honest, it allows me to focus purely on some of Sega's older and more well-known works for the time being. I own a Dreamcast and love just about every title I've picked up to death, but, unfortunately for us and Sega themselves, the DC just never hit it well with EA or some other valuable publishers.
Still, you can bet that I'll gradually be adding some older Dreamcast content into the mix, as coverage of the DC in a 'classic' sense has already been covered by the mainstream press... *coughs* Since they see it so fit to declare the DC dead, even though fresh titles are still arriving, with at least a great game a month coming in (praise Capcom!).
- How is the community progressing? It seems to grow more and more when I visit your forums.
She is indeed growing. I like it. I like it alot. It makes me warm and fuzzy at nights, and allows me to sleep.
- The site is notorious for having frequent design changes, is the latest the one you're most comfortable with?
The 'latest' design is a slight change of the first design that Sega CDX had when I originally re-launched the Unofficial Sega Saturn Homepage as it (officially in January).
And now for some fun facts
- What is your favorite Saturn and Dreamcast game?
I really enjoy shooters a lot anymore. Strikers 1945 II is a great game, as are the legendary Radiant Silvergun, Mars Matrix, and Giga Wing 2. As far as action goes, MDK 2 for the DC is grand. I really liked Legend of Oasis for the Saturn, Sword of the Berserk for DC, and Shinobi for the Master System (had to sneak in some old school action there, sorry). Oh, and who can forget the following Saturn titles: Deep Fear, Dragon Force, Enemy Zero, the Panzer Dragoon series, and... good god, too many good memories to list. As far as DC goes, who can't love Jet Grind/Set Radio, NFL2k1, Shenmue, and every single Capcom release (I'm really lovin' em right now, thanks to their cheap releases)! Oh, and my favorite Sega RPG is still Phantasy Star 4 (which can be found on the Saturn, if you can read Japanese).
