A group of archaeologists on a routine expedition discovers an ancient machine and its pilot in a structure that dates back thousand of years. Scientists dub the machine Elemental Gimmick Gear and replicate it as a means of transportation. Years later, at the excavation site, scavengers in search of lost treasure trigger a switch that causes destruction the world over. You, as Leon, the pilot of the original EGG, must investigate this strange occurrence and bring peace back to the land. In this 2D action RPG, you'll be traveling across the land in search of answers and resolution, which will come in the form of exploration, challenging puzzles, and turn-based combat. Along with the traditional combat skills found in a standard RPG, you'll also acquire special skills that take advantage of your EGG's capabilities. Molded in the classic style of 16-bit RPGs with the visual acuity of the Dreamcast, EGG: Elemental Gimmick Gear takes the genre to a new level.

Pros: 2D backgrounds! A rare RPG on Dreamcast.
Cons: Lives in shadows because DC owners want "A real RPG".
Sick and tired of polygonal 3D games? EGG is right for you! Done the RIGHT way in 2D, EGG feature great hand painted backgrounds and a great story. Nothing is really done new here, but Zelda fans rejoice. I personally loved it and played it for a few weeks, but then bigger and better games came. Now the skinny: Elemental Gimmick Gear is about a device found in a dungeon. A body is found inside it and to everyone's suprise, its SLEEPING! Ten years pass and the human wakes up (by then the world has made their own transportation device much like the sleeper). Your adventure starts here.
PROS: 2D backgrounds, live-action fights (ala Zelda)
CONS: graphic might turn off new gamers, doesn't have that "lasting effect" on you.
