I can't say how much I've missed SEGA since the death of the Dreamcast...as a guy growing up across the 80's, I pretty much checked out every console they had ('cept for maybe the pre-8-bit ones), and it remains the company behind the majority of my videogaming experiences.
Their library spanning across various consoles, home to some of the most memorable games to me.
I made this thread, just because I hope to say it one day.
No new consoles yet...
I remember playing Seaman on the Dreamcast. That game was a blast.

Dreamcast was released to compete with original x-box and PS2. Dreamcast had better graphics nbut screwed up by having no dvd capabilieties. Plus is was easy as hell to burn cd-r-s to burn and bootleg any gane.

You're both wrong.
The Dreamcast was released about 3 years after the n64 (hence the better graphics), and was not released as competition for the ps2, as this system didn't come out for another 1-2 years after the DC depending on where in the world you lived. It didn't have a dvd drive, but then no other console ever had at this point either - considering it had a graphics card of its own, and online multiplayer access it was quite ahead of its time.
The PS2 getting released may have killed it, but it's still my preferred system of the two.
Had free internet acces and was way too powerfull for it's time. Was the start of Soulcalibur !
Yes, soul calibur 1...to this day one of my favourite VS titles.
Had the first online play I ever tried on a console, and in my personal opinion the servers/online play/features were way better than anything the PS2 ever ended up offering.
Probably had one of the greatest, though short lived, library of eclectic titles (almost) ever on a console, in my honest opinion the only systems to compete with it at this level would be the original NES and PC.

No, I'm quite sure I enjoyed playing Seaman on the DC.;)

Someones post/account must have been deleted, they were talking about the N64...
Yeah, I remember seeing things about Seaman, looked weird...never came out here, I'd probably have got it if it did.
If you still have your Dreamcast, you could probably find a copy out there pretty cheap.
This is a good rundown of the game:
