~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Every week here at Dreamcast Weekly I receive hundreds of e-mails, many
of which are very thoughtful letters that unfortunately we don't have
a place to print. So this week our cover feature is one giving a
different view on the E3 show, one about fan sites perhaps taking over
the show?

Expanding on what an editor at GameFan Online said, this is a issue that
is only just coming in to the spotlight, and I'd like to know what our
readers think. So next week we'll feature many of the letters we get
in reply. Please send all e-mails on this feature under the subject of
"The Fansite Cometh".

>>>> The Fansite Cometh

>>>> Written by Bahn at http://www.the-nextlevel.com/


While the E3 TNL crew has begun presenting their overview of last week's
entertainment expo, there's one aspect which simply can not wait until
our regularly scheduled program for gaming fandom. As it's an issue which
apparently has not only been made increasingly apparent to gaming
publications, but most importantly to the very members in the industry
which we all as gamers invest our money - fansites.

As I indicated in my last editorial, attending E3 was a very exciting
experience for me. There were an abundant number of justified and
constructive reasons why I saw the event as a vital excursion. Sure, we
all know that this is the place where the media and press alike meet
under one roof for 3 days, the domain where even newcomers in the
industry hoping to be establish their companies and ideas to be
recognize; it's also the place where you can sample all of the latest
games before the common public, and of course - there are the lovely
ladies which have been acknowledged by the gaming populace (mainly male
editors I am sure) - booth babes.

To get back on track... since the endeavor to utilize the super-highway
to accomplish a childhood goal did the very site you all have come to
visit come into existence. In fact, this site carries more history and
drama enough to score high among the documentaries on The Discovery
Channel. Exactly what is it that I am getting at ??? It would appear
that not too long ago, the very thought of doing a fansite, gamezine,
basically an unofficial publication that would be available to the net
community was all the least but popular. In fact, before TNL was around,
we once existed as a small aspiring site known as GameNet, to which
old-time editors who existed on sites such as PlayStation Interactive,
64i and such all clamored for one vital element in order to thrive -
readership. Three years have passed, I still can be recognized as being
a avid Capcom gamer who'll never deviate from my fond admiration for
Chun Li, yet lo and behold - fansites have become hip and trendy. Hm?
How is this possible? It only seemed like yesterday, simply stating to
others that you ran a webpage was enough, a time when everyone under the
sun flossed (read: basically, showing off...) their newbie Photoshop
skills and lens flares that could be seen in every 1 out of 3 fan pages.
I definitely was among them and it was quite humorous. Now we have a new
agenda that's facing the gaming industry and it's one that not only has
agitated the very journalists of popular, established publications, but
the movers and shakers of the industry itself. In short, the market is
getting crowded with fansites. 

Now wait just a second...

Without running the risk of creating a contradiction here, allow me to
justify a few points here as it's only come to my attention upon the
team registering for their second E3 event. Fansites that attended last
year literally created havoc as it was reported to me that members of
'esteemed' sites were rude, haughty, and basically made the very
members that rightfully should be there unable to effectively do their
jobs. It's no wonder that the committee chose to enforce the rules more
tightly, among them requesting that such sites prove that they were an
established business or endorsed by a actual corporation. 

Despite tighter enforcement, as the editors from GameFan Online pointed
out: E3 2000 was still considered for lack of a better word - a zoo.
Being among one of the attendees, I was overwhelmed as I didn't expect
the volume of people that were present to be so high. As one editor
points out: 

...my lasting impressions of this show will be that it's getting too
crowded with people who "sneak in" just to play games. I'm sure each
and every one of them feels entitled to be there, since they've paid
the $19.99 a month to have their own website, but it's making life
increasingly difficult for professionals (not just the media) to get
their job done at the show--plus, game companies are putting less and
less money into chicken (freebies) because the fanboy population scarfs
it all up anyway. I can remember a time when the chicken flowed, and
you could actually get work done at E3. Those days are long gone,
however... and the show organizers really need to do something to
correct the problem, or very soon, we won't be able to get anything done
at E3. 

I'd be lying if I didn't say that initially any fansite, established or
not could read this and take offense to this? It turns out that many
were not happy about what they read and proceeded to sling out
bickerings and what not. Folks, it's an issue that hasn't suddenly
popped up. It's a situation which has been existent for quite some time.
Ask yourself why is it you're truly developing a website? Is it a goal
to perhaps venture into the gaming industry? Running back to show off
all the cool chicken you scooped at the show? Whatever your intentions,
it should be honestly that you share a passion for gaming, one that your
readers can discover and appreciate. For the record, creating a fanzine
does not automatically guarantee you'll achieve the industry's
awareness, respect, and to those looking to cash in on the craze - it
does not guarantee you'll become a millionaire either. 

Weighing the pros and cons 

While TNL is certainly not the most prominent site, we've certainly
established a significant niche for ourselves. To give a balanced
argument to both sides of the coin: fansites like ours are a great way
to add another voice to the gaming industry which before the dawn of the
internet was only possible through print publications. Gamers of young
and old, male and female now have assembled together to share with the
net community their opinions, and with any luck, establish credibility
and solid readership. To those who show dedication, possess a solid
grasp of the English language (sorry, but simply saying 'this game
rocks' just doesn't cut it), along with a sincere drive to excel in
gaming journalism can draw up new opportunities. It's a great deal of
work, nothing comes easy, don't expect anyone to simply hand things to
you, but in the end, it can pay off. 

To the naysayers, the ones that will be here today, gone tomorrow: quit
wasting the time of those who are in the business. The last thing
anyone needs is a scam artist pretending to be interested in a company
only to grab as much as they can until their attention spans fizzle.
It's folks like you that are giving the established fansites a bad rap.
As for E3, it's not an arcade, and no one needs to be bothered with a
group of uncourteous gamers. On behalf of the established sites that
have been around the block and proven themselves, keep it real or simply
don't play at all...

Game Over...

>>>> Free Chu Chu Rocket For Europeans

America has Sega.net, but what about Europe? Sega Of Europe announced
Dreamarena Ltd this week. Dreamarena Ltd has been created to develop the
on-line activities of the Dreamcast. To date Dreamarena is the fastest
growing on-line games portal with more than 250,000 registered
Dreamcasters. Dreamarena intends to double this in time for Dreamcast's
first European anniversary on October 14th 2000.

To help kick start online gaming even further, Sega Of Europe will be
giving away a copy of Chu Chu Rocket to everyone signing upto
Dreamarena. JF Cecillon, Chief Executive Officer, SEGA Europe & Chairman,
Dreamarena Ltd said: "Yet again SEGA Europe has produced an industry
first for gamers with the introduction of Europe’s first multi-player
on-line game. On-line gaming has arrived, but we won’t stop here. This
Europe-wide marketing programme reconfirms SEGA Europe’s commitment to
providing our customers with the ultimate gaming experience. Together
with the exciting software line up and development of more peripherals,
SEGA Europe looks forward to providing further enhancements for the
console, as Dreamcast continues to evolve. There is plenty for
Dreamcasters to look forward to."


>>>> STOP PRESS: Sega President To Resign

The president of Sega Enterprises Ltd. will resign to take
responsibility for the poor sales of Dreamcast game consoles, a news
report said Monday. Citing company sources, the Nihon Keizai newspaper
said Shoichiro Irimajiri will become vice chairman of the firm.
Company officials could not be reached for comment early Monday.

Sega Chairman Isao Ohkawa, who is also chairman of Sega affiliate CSK
Corp., will succeed Irimajiri and serve concurrently as president, the
report said. The disappointing sales of the Dreamcast machines appear
to have forced Sega to post its third consecutive net loss in the year
ended March 31. In his new position, Irimajiri, 60, will concentrate on
design and development of a successor game machine, the newspaper
reported.

The founder and largest shareholder of CSK, the 74-year-old Ohkawa will
be responsible for initiatives to restructure Sega, the report said. It
has yet to be decided whether he will remain as CSK chairman.


>>>> Virtua Tennis Becomes Power Smash

Virtua Tennis has been yet another Sega hit for the arcades, hot on the
tales of other Naomi titles such as Crazy Taxi and 18 Wheeler. And as
with both those titles, Virtua Tennis is receiving some enhancements when
it comes to your home.

Starting with a name change, the game will be known as "Power Smash",
along with several all new stadiums to be added. Most interestingly
however, is the game will support upto 8 players.

>>>> No Daytona USA 2 Announcement Yet... Why?

Just days before the E3 show this year, Daytona USA 2 was very heavily
rumored to be announced by Sega. But now the show is over, where is
Sega's hit racer? Still being worked on according to sources, but again,
still in secret. Apparently there may be some license issues to work
out with EA before the game is announced.

weekly and printed here.

>>>> Do I Have To Switch To Sega.Net?

Q) I have a question. I have been using another isp on my dreamcast to
   go onto the internet ever since i opened the box. It works great and
   I don t have to pay extra for another service. Now, will I have to
   subscribe to sega.net in order to enjoy their multiplayer games such
   as phantasy star online and quake 3 arena? Please for the love of god
   say its not true. If I must use sega.net, what are some of the fees
   and charges I will have to deal with? - Gabriel


A) This was the weeks most common question, and we have good news... no
   you don't have to join Sega.net to play online games, although
   chances are Sega will provide the best service. I believe Sega.net
   charges $21.95 for 150 hours of online time each month.


>>>> Dolby Digital Delemur

Q) Hello, first off congratulations on your magazine... IT'S GREAT!!!
Whenever I see it in my e-mail box I flip out with excitement. Honestly!
For my question, you mention in your latest magazine about the Dolby
Surround.  Now is this Dolby Digital Surround?  And what do you mean by
new operating system?  What are the people who've owned a dreamcast
supposed to do?  Can they get the upgrade? Thank you in advance for
taking the time to read this e-mail and for your quick response.
Sincerely - Nate Perry


A) No, the code for Dolby Digital Surround sound will be done through
   the software, meaning it's included on each GD-ROM.


>>>> You Forgot To Say Please

Q) Send me a dreamcast.


A) We get many e-mails asking for a free Dreamcast, but sorry I don't
   have any to give away, not even for a contest.


>>>> RPG's To Blow You Away

Q) 1) Is there anyway possible I could get on the DCWeekly team?

   2) What upcoming RPG's are there for the Dreamcast?

   3) I've heard a rumor that Sonic Shuffle and Sonic Adventure 2 are
      the same thing. Is this true? Thankx. - Fuzzbuzz


A) 1) Not yet sorry, but there might be some chances in the near future.

   2) Phantasy Star Online, Grandia 2, and Eternal Arcadia are all
      top quality RPGs on their way. Then there's Silver, Evolution 2,
      Arcatera: The Dark Brotherhood, and Legend of the BladeMasters,
      just to mention a few more.

   3) No both games are very different. Sonic Shuffle is a spin-off
      puzzle title, where as Sonic Adventure 2 is a real Sonic platform
      game.
      

>>>> Chu Chu In Slow Mo

Q) Whenever I play a game of Chu Chu Rocket Online, the arrows are put
   down at a very slow rate. Like when I press the button on a square,
   the arrow shows up a few seconds later, but not instantaneously. I
   use freewwweb as my internet server and I use a Juno account as my
   e-mail. What is affecting the arrows from showing up, the e-mail, or
   the Internet. - Squirt


A) There is always some lag between pressing the button to place an
   arrow and the arrow actually showing up as this was Sega's first
   online game. However if it's more than a second or two, chances are
   you need a better Internet Server.


>>>> Underage Entry To The E3?

Q) I wanted to know how old one has to be to go to E3, because I am able
   to go next year through my work. If I am below that age can I get in
   if a parent or guardian accompanies me? Just to let you know, your
   magazine helps me inform customers on what is coming out, and it
   helps me sell the dreamcast with all the new info every week. Thanx.
   - gb2us


A) You must be at least 18 to get in to the E3 sorry, and parents or
   guardians coming with you doesn't help get you in. A pity about those
   rules, but I'm sure you can see why they have the age limit in place.
   E3 is a trade show, unlike the Tokyo Game Show which is public.

>>>> Lik-Sang Update:

O DC PSXtreme Pad - Just $12

Bleem was announced at the E3 and already we provide the Joypad with the
PS look and feel. A Turbo Mode for all the buttons can be switched on.
This can be used for DC games, and PS1 games, once Bleemcast is
released. The picture shows a cool blue looking PSX controller, and it's
selling for only $12. A great way to get extra controllers.

O Colored VMU Replacement Cases

Lik-Sang now have 3rd party replacement cases for Sega's VMU. They come
in clear blue, clear light green and clear pink, and include a free
strap. For just US$9.99, bring colors into your grey DC life.

http://www.Lik-Sang.com

Lik-Sang don't pay Dreamcast Weekly in exchange for writing about them
each week, after the great feedback we've had for our readers about
them, we just believe they are the best importer on the web.


>>>> NextGenVideos:

O Peter Molyneux dumps the PC!

Well this is a real sign of what's to come in this new nextgen console
era. Peter Molyneux, legendary designer of God games including Populous
and the Theme series of sim games, says his highly anticipated upcoming
title, Black and White, will be his last game for the PC. Get the
details.

Why are they featured in Dreamcast Weekly? Because the movies are quite
possibly of the highest quality on the net, that's why. If you haven't
checked them out yet, now's a good time to start.
