Everyone knows the Sega Dreamcast was something special. But not everyone knows WHY. There have been many generations of gamers who never played ANY Sega console, let alone the last one. So to pay tribute to everything SEGA was, here's what it was like to be there for Sega's glorious dying breath.

Special thanks to The Dreamcast Junkyard for being an awesome site that I've read for over 10 years, to Sega Retro for being an invaluable resource, to Tickeroo for letting me use their PSO footage from 2001, to Tom Waterhouse for the original title card art (I used it as desktop wallpaper back in 2007!), and to Benjamin Woodring for sponsoring a Dreamcast retrospective way back in 2015! I hope it was worth the wait!

Oh, and a HUGE thanks to the combined suggestions of @pyrrhickong on Twitter and my bird woman Alisha, for saving the PS2 rant near the end!
