I am buying a Dreamcast and can get -

Toy racer,Ready 2 rumble boxing,Virtua tennis,Tony hawks skateboarding or Worms armageddon. Which would you guys choose? I have no experience with any of them so I am in need of some help! :D

Thanks.

Out of those I think Tony Hawk and Virtua Tennis are probably the only two that are any decent, so it comes down to whether you'd want to play a tennis game or a skateboarding game. 
 
Also, if you're buying a Dreamcast, then you need to get a copy of Shenmue. Then you can be one of those people who always complains about the lack of Shenmue III. We need new members. 

i played them all back in the day. and too be honest i can't understand why anyone would want to play these games again.  
 
there is nothing classic about any of them. 
 
but if i had to... if i REALLY had to choose... i guess it would be virtual tennis. 

Oh come on guys, it's FREE! I'm also getting a free rumble pack so I can't exactly complain. :P

Virtua Tennis.

Worms Armageddon is brilliant, but I played the N64 version. It's just worms with some slightly more wacky weapons.

Ready 2 Rumble.

Tony hawks skateboarding

Tony Hawk 1 was decent at the time. 2 was a revelation though. I'd say Tennis if it's not actually TH2.

Get Ecco the Dolphin: Defender of the Future - hardest game i've ever played and I only ever got to level 15 (of 30)

Really? Why didn't anyone else think so? :(

Lots of people like it. Just pick a game that is in a genre you like.

I will get Shenmue but it's pretty pricey. The first is 80 and the second is 100. I can afford them but is it worth it? (they are brand new) also, here is the auction on the console. Yay or nay? http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/SEGA-DREAMCAST-CONSOLE-maybe-best-ebay-/230635514921?pt=UK_VideoGames_VideoGameConsoles_VideoGameConsoles&hash;=item35b2f2ac29#ht_2377wt_323

That depends. Do you like books? Are you ok with story over gameplay? If yes to both of those then Shenmue will be worth the effort to track down and cost.

Heavy Rain was my GoTY 2010. Does that help?

Never played Toy racer. I've only played the sequel to Ready 2 Rumble and it felt kinda old then(10 years ago), but somewhat fun. I don't like tennis games, so I can't comment on it. Tony Hawk Skateboarding isn't quite as good as 2 or 3, it doesn't have manuals or reverts which seriously hampers the potential for long combos. Finally, Worms: Armageddon is my favorite Worms game and probably the best of the series, but if you don't like Worms, you won't like Armageddon. Also, there's a pretty good Worms game(get the second, not the first) on XBLA and PSN.

I've never played a Worms game but they look like a bunch of fun. Are they easy to learn?

Get Shenmue.

Is this version good? Is it in English? http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Shenmue-II-2-Limited-Package-Dreamcast-Japan-BRAND-NEW-/400212351157?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item5d2e83d8b5#ht_612wt_1139

Out of those games I would go with Virtua Tennis

Shenmue III? Oh, you must have misspelled Yakuza.

You need to get Toy Commander, way cooler than Toy Racer.

Honestly pick any one of them, none of them are really unique or interesting Dreamcast experiences, and why would you play a Dreamcast otherwise? It's all about the weird shit you couldn't find elsewhere. Toy Commander, Shenmue, Seaman, Samba de Amigo, Typing of the Dead, Power Stone, Space Channel 5, Chu Chu Rocket, Jet Set Radio and so on.

Ready 2 Rumble.

Or Virtua Tennis. They're both great games!

Oh, don't get me wrong, I love the Yakuza games. I just want some more Shenmue.
