   It's a capture the flag game in 3D space.  Somehow this game totally   
   evaded my notice until now.  The arenas are the inside of a cube that   
   can rotate clockwise or counter clockwise.  Any of the four players or   
   AI can hit the rotate button on the far left or right of each floor.   
   When the floor is rotated all of the players who did not hit the button   
   will fall to the new floor appropriately and suffer about a second delay   
   as they get up.   
      
   Each floor is also rigged with a "basket" color coded to each player.   
   The goal of getting the flag to the right colored basket is made more   
   interesting in that if another color player gets the flag to somebody   
   else's basket it takes seconds off their time limit.  When a player's   
   timer hits zero they lose.   
      
   Basically it is an intense and very unique 1st gen party game.  I   
   honestly can't believe I never gave it a try.  When it came out I could   
   have had a blast playing it with my roomates.  These days it's AI only   
   for me.

   I don't think the PS2 game is a sequel as much as it is an attempt to   
   "mass-marketize" the Dreamcast game.  Everything I have ever read about   
   it is that they screwed the pooch on the gameplay.  The Dreamcast game   
   is an excellent 3rd person shooter, with great humor and graphics, that   
   has the controls of MDK 2 basically.  I haven't played the PS2 game yet   
   and I would not be surprised if it was very nearly identical with Dual   
   Shock controls Sony fans just weren't used to.
