Sonic Adventure 2 introduces a plethora of advances and stories from its predecessor, but how well does it stack against its Dreamcast/Gamecube port? I take a look at both versions to help you decide which version works for YOU, on this edition of Port vs Port!
A huge thanks to Berry for his donation of Sonic Adventure 2 Battle so I could record footage. Links to his page are down below so you can visit him!

I've always felt that the Dreamcast version controls are better and the gameplay is faster and smoother except for some points where the hardware can't handle it and causing frames drop
while the Gamecube version is polished and tested well

Dreamcast has better lighting, but GC is the better version.
Still hate the game though

You mention the audio balancing being better on GameCube, which was a first for me because I always felt & heard that the GameCube version pretty much added like 3-4 DB to music in the cutscenes and the voices were drowned by it (HD versions being even worse). Or the voices were lowered, one or the other.
Then you show the examples… And the GameCube version definitely has more issues, so I don't know what you meant… just SFX? It's more important to listen to dialogue, and the GC version falters there.
It's especially noticeable in the Sonic Vs Shadow cutscene towards the end of each story, DC's music is already rather loud but you can make out what they're saying, GC's music is so loud though that you can barely even realise Sonic say his "What you see is what you get" line without headphones.

I can hear less compression in the limo cutscene, although it's only very slight, that can't be the only thing you meant by that.
Furthermore the "BEEEEP" in the GameCube & especially HD versions when Tails/Eggman use their lock-on laser was amplified, same with the other SFX during stages, so if anything the audio balancing is worse on all fronts in the ports.

Cutscene Revamp helps so much for the PC version.

Prefer the sharper cleaner image of the Dreamcast. Textures on Dreamcast were unmatched

I personally don't think a single officially released version of SA2 even holds a candle to the fun of SA1. Vanilla, I'd go as far to say it's clunky, unfun shit. Modded however, is an entirely different story.

Gamecube handsdown

I never encountered any bugs in the Dreamcast version of Sonic Adventure 2 except for one where I was playing crazy Gadget and I fell into the goo and fell forever, but aside from that I didn't have much of a different experience from the other versions of the game. To be honest I would play any version of Sonic Adventure 2 but I'm mainly playing the PC version with Dreamcast mods

There is an xbox version as well.

i'm sorry but the dreamcast version is not a port, please get that right, its the original, the gamecube and windows versions came out 2 full years later

Once again, the Dreamcast version is the original game and the Gamecube version is the reprogrammed game.

Wonderful video and congratulations on getting your degree (you probably have it by now)!
I grew up with the Gamecube port, and after watching your comparison of the two, I'm positive I like the Gamecube port more than the original. The only thing the original has over the port is the lighting (and size of the Chao gardens, which are slightly bigger (I'm a Chao expert so I already knew about that part)), but it's not a big deal to me.
