In some ways, the Dreamcast was superior than the PS2. The PS2, despite all of its raw graphic power at the time of its introduction, had NO hardware texture compression nor anti-aliasing support, which the Dreamcast had both of. This is one mistake that Sony made, since most PS2 titles would have looked much better and crisper had there been both of the forementioned features. What was Sony thinking? I'm pretty sure they're kicking themselves now for having overlooked that.

The Dreamcast was an extremely well-built system, made of quality parts and components, unlike the PS2, which was made of very low-quality parts in order to keep manufacturing costs within reasonable limits. the DC was small in size, yet very sturdy. The thing was a tank, yet it looked much more attractive than the Xbox. Sure, the controller was a little weird, and the logo was not very imaginative, but the system itself was not to blame for its own demise. Rather, it was consumers' reluctance due to a lack of trust in Sega's commitment to their products, as well as Sony's introduction of the PS2 that drove the nail into the coffin. Sega had played their cards quite brilliantly with the Dreamcast, which had an enormous library for the years that it was on the market. They have Sony to thank for the DC's eventual demise.
