Question
For Dreamcast, some games can be played on-line.  Is it still playable online today?

Answer
Henry,

The official Sega Websites for hosting shut down around 2002/3

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Dreamcast_network_games

But.......

There are a number of private networks set up for your gaming pleasure....

Phantasy Start Online (Private Network)

I would also have a look here as for the community of Dreamcast online players.  (Who host regular Online Dreamcast events)

Hope this helps you out.
