Who doesn't remember playing TrickStyle on their Sega Dreamcast? I did, for many, many hours. It's now available on GoG.com for just £3.99.
I'll be honest, I'm not sure if this is a launch price or standard pricing. But in my eyes, £3.99 for this masterpiece is a deal.
Style. Speed. Psycho-stunts. Spectacularly sick visuals. TrickStyle takes you on the race of your life!
Unlike traditional racing games, TrickStyle's gameplay is based on the use of hundreds of stunts in order to win the game - in both single-player and multi-player modes. Gamers not only have to be fast, they have to master the game's stunts as well, thus allowing gamers to speed up, access shortcuts and slow opponents down while racing on futuristic hover boards. In addition to a huge velodrome (a skate park designed just for air surfers), gamers can race through gorgeous futuristic renditions of Tokyo, New York City and London. Each city is recognizable by its famous landmarks, and boasts unique challenges, such as avoiding traffic and pedestrians in bustling Manhattan. In addition, TrickStyle uses a node-based racing system, which allows gamers to create their own paths through the cities.
400 tricks to master with special moves for all nine characters!
Curve it up all over futuristic Manhattan, London and Tokyo.
Sessions at The Velodrome teach you the mad skills.
Blimey, that was the first game I owned on my Dreamcast back in the days. That brings back memories.

It's standard pricing - they'd show the regular and discounted price if it were on offer.

Have they tweaked/revamped it so it can run ok on Modern OS ?

The Dreamcast isn't dead! Independent developers still make games for it!

This is from the guys that made Burnout and Black right? Really looking forward to their new game (hopefully next year) :smiley:

Burnout 3 Takedown still my favourite arcade racing game alongside that perfect OutRun arcade port on Sega Saturn. Still play the Xbox version on my 360 quite alot! It still looks stunning visually & plays better than anything else that has been released in the 11 years since! Only a few quid on eBay for a used copy too which is crazy value for money. It is just a no brainer purchase for anyone with a 360.
Talking about TrickStyle you can actually buy a real Dreamcast copy for about the same price on eBay haha.

Those generic shmups aren't even enough to keep the Dreamcast on life support. It's dead, Jim.
