The phone cord. I know, wierd huh?

I was puzzled forever about that. At first, way back when, I thought it might mean the dc vs cable. I was sorely mistaken.

thats wierd why would they put the phone cord under compatablitie? does it say weither it uses a regular modem,if it doesnt i guess that it would make sum sort of sense.

I know I think UT might be the only game to have that icon on it. I think in some packaging thing for designers there were probobly little icons for every peripheral under the rainbow and for some reason Secret Level added the modular cable one lol.

just a little strange thought, but you reckon you could connect to modems up using the ringed phone cable and play a sort of LAN? (im not a technical person, no good iwth electronics so dont take the michael Smile)

Ghetto LAN. I like it. That's right up there with Nikon's cardboard network adapter, which I still need to try, by the way. I think it's safe to say we'd try to just about anything to see if we could connect our Dreamcasts together.

I still want to set aside a weekend to just fiddle with my Dreamcasts and all my games to see if I can find anything weird.
