The Sega Addicts will be recording Episode 16 tonight! The topics of discussion are: Sega news, Outrun 2006 (PS2,PSP,Xbox,XBLA,Arcade), and all of those wonderful FMV games on the Sega CD. If you’ve got some comments or listener questions for the show leave them in the comments below.
Also, forum member MattJay has started a great thread on the “Raddest Boxart You Can Find“. Check it out and contribute if you’ve seen some awesomely bad Sega art in your life.
And don’t forget about the PlaySega USB contest that ends today! There’s also one more week remaining to enter the Sega Saturn contest!
Did any of you play Another World/Out of this world? If so what did you think of it? and are you looking forward to project dust?
Have you guys ever experienced disappointment on the level of turning on your console, hearing the “Segaaa” and expected to start playing a good game like Sonic 2 or Streets of Rage only to find it was Alpha Protocol?
That happened to me just now.
(insert cliche part about loving the show and keep up the good work)
With the recent news that the XBLA version of Crazy Taxi will not feature it’s trademark soundtrack or the real world destinations like KFC do you feel that it loses some of the appeal?
Phantasy Star 1,2,3 or 4? Which one is your personal favorite? Would you like to see another “traditional” Phantasy Star game that is a sequel to the SMS/Genesis games instead of the Online games?
In an issue of Nintendo Power around the time Sonic 4 was announced there was an interview with one of the heads of Dimps, (I believe Takashi Iizuka, though I could be wrong) said in an interview that he considered Sonic to now have two different play styles. Sonic 4 would be a continuation of the classic platforming, but he considered the Sonic Rush style to be more of an action game than a platformer. Knowing this, do your opinions of the Rush games change? Is creating more games with a heavier focus on action worthwhile? Are Sonic action games an ideal worth pursuing?
No discussion of Sega CD FMV games would be complete without WIREHEAD!!! Do you want to see a man jump out of a plane, use the liferaft as a parachute, and be molested by a bear? This game has it all!

Are there any ways that FMV games could be improved, or were they an evolutionary dead-end in game design (with Dragon’s Lair being the T-Rex)?
I have a friend who calls himself a sonic fan. But one of his favorite sonic friends is Cream! He get all of his information about from the TV show and the crappy sonic games so he make stupid comment like Sonic is father of Rouge. I don’t know where he got that idea but I know that is so wrong. I just always want to beat him every time he talks about sonic. What should I do?
Ohmigosh I got mentioned in the post :3
