This week on Sega Addicts, we discuss the much-anticipated upcoming Dreamless Dreamcast marathon coming up later this week! We talk about our dream game, franchise, or console combinations and discuss how to deal with people not remembering your name that should. We're all super-excited about the marathon this weekend, and we hope you'll all join us for that as well! Thanks so much to everyone who helped make it possible. |

This week on Sega Addicts, we discuss a well-beloved Disney game, Castle of Illusion for the Genesis! We discuss game design options in helping a player navigate their surroundings, talk about some of the dumbest stuff we've done in games for the hell of it, and make sure Nick knows he's never going to live this episode down. We hope everyone is excited for the annual Dreamless Dreamcast Marathon starting September 5th at 7 am EST at twitch.tv/segaaddicts! Thanks so much to everyone who has made this year's event possible. You guys are the best. |

This week on Sega Addicts, we discuss Last Battle and how it would have been so much better if it involved Fist of the North Sta-oh waaaaait. We talk about what we'd like to see done with our favorite games in, say, 50 years or so, and spend way too long talking about the dumbest laws and rules that we can think of. (Read: Google with such short notice.) It's pretty bad that we could have spent the whole 2 hours talking about just that- great job, America! |

This week on Sega Addicts, we discuss the short and sweet (?) arcade brawler, Altered Beast! We talk about the worst parts of our favorite games, and we share our worst customer service experiences and the joys of retail in general. BOY do I miss working reta- Bah, I can't even finish that sentence. |

This week on Sega Addicts, we celebrate one of Scotty's favorite games of all time, Saturn Bomberman! We discuss ideas for fresh twists on common game tropes, have an editorial discussion on Atlus's release, Lost Dimension, and spend a little time remembering our favorite memories involving video games. As always, we spend way too much time talking about food thanks to Tom. |

This week on Sega Addicts, we talk about Spy Fiction, Access Games and Swery's first shot at an "original" title! We debate passion vs technique, answer a butt-load of listener questions and get to experience the wonder that is Scotty Mo singing with his guitar! |

This week on Sega Addicts, we discuss Ranger X for the Genesis/Mega Drive with good friend and longtime fan of the site, Shig! We talk about our most comfortable settings for playing video games, spend way too long talking about food-related things again, (Dammit Tom) and share some weird and embarrassing auto-corrects we've fallen victim to. Isn't technology wonderful? |

This week on Sega Addicts, we talk about the best Dragonball Z game that never came to America, Dragonball Z: Shinbutoden. We honor Satoru Iwata by discussing some of the great things he's done for the industry as well as some of our favorite games that he's worked on, go on a long tangent about what makes a good supporting cast, and apologize again for messing up on Pockyslice's latest question. Don't hurt us! |

This week on Sega Addicts, we celebrate Independence Day and all things Murrica by playing- what else? Independence Day for the Sega Saturn! We discuss establishing character agency in games and spend a bit too much time talking about our favorite soundtracks from eligible video games. We also screwed up super-bad and due to a misunderstanding, we didn't realize until after we were done recording that Wednesday the 8th is our good friend Pockyslice's birthday! Sorry for the mix-up- please don't hate us! |

This week on Sega Addicts, we celebrate the 22nd anniversary of Shining Force by discussing it as our game of the week. We rant and rave about some of our biggest pet peeves in game design and share our worst vacation stories, though. With Scotty gone, Elle took up the mantle of trying to put together musical bits for the show, so we'll see how that goes. |
