The Sega Addicts Podcast

This week on Sega Addicts, @TJKitsune and @ProfSegaface join us as we talk EXTENSIVELY about Yakuza 5- how it measured up to our expectations, how it compared to previous games, and even discussing our favorite parts of the story and gameplay.  No spoilers are spared, so if this is a game you want to play and don't want it spoiled for you, definitely skip this episode. We'll understand, we promise!

Tl;dr- play Yakuza 5, dammit!

This week on Sega Addicts, we talk about the totally-not-based-on-a-manga-or-anything Mystic Defender for the Genesis!  Listeners let out two weeks of pent-up frustra-er, brilliance on us, we each assemble our own personal video game "Boy stables", (Shout-outs to OSW Review for the concept) and we spend way too much time talking about old kids' meal toys. 

 

Apologies for the lateness this week- the God of Audio Issues really worked me over this week. Next week's episode will be on time for sure! In the meantime, I'll just be over here offering animal sacrifices and praying furiously.

This week on Sega Addicts, we discuss the wacky but incredibly short Desert Demolition Starring Road Runner and Wile E. Coyote for Sega Genesis!  We discuss playing through failures in games vs. being a perfectionist, discuss our favorite "FOOD NOW" snacks, and Brett and Scotty channel their inner redneck to deliver probably the best news segment and question responses we've ever had.

This week on Sega Addicts, Elle's back, so time to get back to our regularly scheduled silliness with Dynamite Duke for the Genesis!  We get a bit (understandably we think) cautiously hype about 7th Dragon coming over to the West, discuss when games have made us feel uncomfortable by challenging our ethical or moral sensibilities, and get some oddly personal questions that may or may not have been a good idea.
