I played it for a few hundred hours before dropping off. The single player content can last you a good while, but it does start feeling a bit repetitive.
The online multiplayer is pretty good, but the net code is not great so it can often feel laggy. This was what I spent most of my time on though.
Yeah my friend got a Dreamcast and then I pirated all the games for him. It was one of the most awesome consoles ever with amazing games. But the few other people I knew with one at the time also pirated games. It was just so easy because it didn’t even need a modchip or anything. Just download, burn a CD, and play.
