Dreamcast Has A Future | SEGA
     > In an official announcement by Sega today, we have learned that they will team with U.K. set-top-box developer, Pace Micro Technology, to license-out Dreamcast technology and jointly develop a set-top-box with built-in DC architecture.  The product is expected to be introduced to the public very soon.

     > Aside from Dreamcast technology, the set-top-box is said to have network connectivity, a broadband connection, and a large capacity hard drive.  All current and future Dreamcast games are expected to be compatible, including network games.

     > Sega aims to become a leading network gaming service provider by focusing on these four core businesses: 

  1. Licensing of Dreamcast architecture 
  2. Interactive network videogame content 
  3. Narrow and Broadband electronic services to the online community 
  4. Location-based amusement centers, featuring Sega's content 
     > Sounds like good news to me.  "Dream-box" could be a great way for Sega to continue supporting Dreamcast, while making money.  Let's hope this new team can get this ball rolling quick, because if the probable "DC death articles" take hold, it may get to the point of no return...

Happy Birthday Sega Force! | SEGA FORCE
     > January 27, 1997...  a date which will live in every Sega Fan's memory.  Sega Force, featuring a wealth of classic Sega knowledge to be learned, had its meager beginning four years ago!  It's hard to believe all the awesome games we've played since then --  Panzer Dragoon Saga, the Shining Force III games, Sonic Adventure, Dead or Alive 2, Shenmue, and Skies of Arcadia (to name a few).  Thanks for your encouraging words over the years...
