Hello all..... i stumbled across this site and wandered into the message boards, and this whole web site is very cool. Now i just signed up and i hope anyone here can help me (and i apologize if this has been posted before). I know Propeller Arena and Half-Life never got the justice they diserved by getting released. Does anyone here have or know how to get the cd artwork from these games or like the instruction booklets, or possibly back insert artwork? I didn't know if anyone had those images or even made up their own, but i was just curious if i could just print out nice copies the these and make myself a respectable Dreamcast cd with case 'n all. Hopefully someone here knows what i'm babblin' about and done this too. Anyway, any help / info would be very appreciated !! | |||

Well you can download and print unofficial covers(as well as the official one) from http://www.cdcovers.cc/dreamcast_h.php.
Not sure about manuel though. |

Here is a feature on the game: Click Here
Click the links for images, artwork, and level shots. I could have sworn I have these on my PC without watermarks. Driving me nuts trying to find them. Anyways if you were to make a new fanbased cover, that artwork above should help. I'll post back if I find anything else. |

Also, the towers could've been ignored by Sega and they could've released the game anyway. Personally, I think that Sega wasn't seriously thinking about releasing it so late in its "life", and 9/11 finally gave them the excuse they needed to save some money and not have to worry about keeping yet another few servers stable. |

No way. They lost money not releasing the game. The developers spent months working on this game. These employees had to be paid, and money was most definatly spent on various other elements relating to the project. | |||

9/11 was indeed the cause for Propeller Arena not being released. Sega was afraid gamers would simulate the events of 9/11 online with Propeller Arena. Sega was in the middle of shifting their business infastructure. They didn't need that kind of bad press, and it wasn't worth the risk for them to release the game. While I hate to admit it, as I love Propeller Arena, they made the right decision.
From experience playing games online on a variety of platforms, I can say people would definatly be re-enacting 9/11 at the time. People online in competaive First Person Shooters, with voice chat outright say racial slurs to each other while playing. There are jackass's out there that are this mad, angry, and confrontational. People feed off of this type of attention. Insecure gamers would do this online just to get everyone else playing the game to take notice of him, putting them at the center of the discussion. Sega made the right move on this one. |

Always thought this was cool to see as they release the guides before the games:

The game actually "went gold", which in industry terms means that the game was past the testing phases and a master disc was pressed that was meant to be used as the base for the final copies. There are also rumors (which are all pure speculation, but judging from the facts that have come out surrounding the release, I don't doubt that this is true) that Sony paid Sierra and Valve a large sum of money to release the game on their system as an exclusive, so Half-Life for the Dreamcast was scrapped even though it was finished. |
