Alright, kids, sit down and let us give you a history lesson. A long time ago, all the way back in 1999 (9.9.99, to be exact), Sega launched what would be their final console, the Dreamcast. It was an impressive console for its day, with a built-in modem and a controller with a memory card that you could use as a separate game unit. It was even priced to move, at just $200. Unfortunately, frequent lulls in title launches and the launch of Sony's PlayStation 2 six months later all but killed Sega's system, and the company left the console market.IGN has relaunched their Dreamcast site, and has promised to look back at all 243 titles released in the US. Every title will be reviewed again, with new screens and videos, current prices, and all 243 titles will be ranked in terms of sheer awesomeness. Only one title is up right now, San Francisco Rush 2049, ranked as the number 4 best Dreamcast game of all time (and it only cost them $12 to buy). We'll be sure to keep an eye on how they rank our favorites. Right now, you can pick up a Dreamcast for easily less than $100 -- not a bad price at all for a console with an awesome library of games.

[update 1: $100 is the going price for a new Dreamcast, but as many have pointed out you can get one for much less -- sorry to make anyone distraught.]
