This is it, folks. The title says it all. Sega Addicts is closing its doors, and Brett, Stevie, and Scotty are here to discuss everything from beginning to end. The full details are in this episode and on the full post on the site itself. We cannot thank you all…
We asked and you answered, or maybe you asked and we answered? It’s a big ol’ mailbag episode! Brett, Nic, and Scotty start out by discussing their personal Game of the Year recommendations and then dive right in to that Scrooge McDuck vault of letters and postcards you sent on…
Sonic Forces released. Did you know that? Yeah we sorta forgot for a second as well, but then we realized we should talk about it! Woo! Remember Sonic Mania? Crap, well try to forget it. Remember Sonic Generations? Well, try to forget that game too, because we need to talk…
We interrupt our regularly scheduled podcast… schedule… to bring you a movie commentary! Fire up those VCRs and find your copy of the 1995 gem Mortal Kombat, because TJ, Nic, Brett, and Scotty are here to help you endure some “fine” cinema. That’s right, you get to watch a movie…
This week’s episode the Addicts sorta talk about Sonic 3D Blast. Really though, this is your episode for fun facts about the Sega Nomad, Sonic Adventure 2 Battle, and PlayStation Demo Discs. Elle, Brett, and Scotty also discuss games that they could never sell or hold significant meaning. You can…
10 years have passed since a gruesome earthquake destroyed most of the Tokyo suburb named Moriyima. The city has been rebuilt and peace has seemingly been restored, but nothing is as it seems. Kou Tokisaka, a high school student who spends his days doing odd jobs, has a fated encounter…
It’s hard to believe that Sonic Generations was six years ago. All was right with the Sonic world back then. Classic Sonic had come back, and been done as close to perfect as we could’ve hoped at that time. Bad, overly grimdark stories had seemed to be a thing of…
It seems like visual novels are growing in popularity during recent years, and as someone who tends to enjoy them for their storytelling capabilities if nothing else, that’s a genuinely exciting prospect. Otome games especially have been building momentum in the West, and although they’re still somewhat few and far…
Every once in awhile, there comes a concept that’s so outlandish and weird, it just might be crazy enough to work. Fighting games with characters based off of 80’s hair metal bands, RPGs where all the characters are humanoid off-brand video game consoles, what would happen if Japanese history were…
Since my experience with games such as Portal, The Talos Principle, and even Pneuma: Breath of Life, I have always enjoyed diving into platform-based puzzle games. When Factotum 90 showed up, I was curious since the game is not 2-player, but does use two screens. Couple those screens with a cute…
If you’re reading this, then that means we have put the finishing touches on the final episode of the Sega Addicts podcast. Typing those words was a lot harder than I thought it’d be when we made the decision, but alas, it’s true. After nearly eight years of podcasts, articles,…
Ignore everything Elle said. Sonic Adventure 2 Battle is the stain on the ground below the dumpster fire. Sonic Adventure 2 birthed one of the most unoriginal, unneeded, and unwanted characters in all of Sonic lore: Bio Lizard. Oh wait, no. I meant the other “perfect life form.” But hey,…
I’ve always had a weird relationship with Sega in general. Though I never owned any Sega console besides the Genesis growing up, my sister and I were able to enjoy a fairly wide variety of Sega games through their presence on Nintendo consoles, the most memorable of which being Sonic…
We’re now officially less than two days from kicking off the Dreamless Dreamcast Marathon. It’s hard to believe that after all this waiting and plotting, the day I depart for Pittsburgh is finally here. In about 9 hours from now, I’ll be meeting up with Scotty, Tom, and AJ to…
It’s Wednesday, Hump Day, as the kids on the street call it, and another day closer to the Dreamless Dreamcast Marathon. Several on the staff have already detailed their preparations, or lack thereof, and while I’d like to join them, I don’t have time. After all, I’ve gotta give you…
