I swear I downloaded and played Half Life for the DC back when I had the machine. I think it was Blue Shift which was originally going to be on the DC first (as an exclusive?).

It was perfectly fine to play but I guess due to hardware limitations, the areas in which you played weren't that large and loading times off the CD was quite slow.

I felt the same way. I could've sworn I played it on Dreamcast a few years ago, but when I asked my buddy (who's a giant gamer) I was corrected that it never hit DC.

The Blue Shift expansion definitely was released onto the internet, but the loading times put me off playing the game.
