I figured there's some of you out there who have never seen the original Dreamcast Easter theme on Pioneer 2. While I was looking around on the Dreamcast servers yesterday I took a few pictures for posterity and figured I'd post them for others to see. I also nabbed images of the GC version of the Pioneer 2 lobby theme for comparison. Definately a noticable difference.

The GC version has a bug that can make the old DC Pioneer 2 themes appear (probably also exists on the X-Box version, too). It's only possible when the lobby theme is present, though. For example: back during Valentine's and White Day the lobby was decorated, so using the bug made the old DC Valentine's Hearts Pioneer 2 theme appear.

How to use it:
When you see a lobby theme on E1&2 that had an equal Pioneer 2 theme counterpart on the DC (these should be New Years, Valentine's, White Day, Easter, Halloween, and Christmas) follow the instructions. Make a team on episode II. Go to the Guild counter and select any quest on episode I (ie. Lost Heat Sword). You'll be sent back to Pioneer 2 on Episode I. Check out the deck and it should be decorated in the old DC Pioneer 2 theme. There won't be theme music playing, though, as this is a bug.

So far in my xbox PSO, I've only noticed it looking like the old DC eggs.
