SEGAbits Swingin’ Report Show: Episode #2


Alright, so we did promise to make the show a weekly thing, the only problem is that recording the past 2 weeks lead to nothing; mostly because of my awesomely lame internet company.

This week I sat down with Aki-at and SEGA Uranus to discuss some SEGA news and Shenmue. I understand that my volume sounds low, we are sorry about that. Seems to do it to the person that records, we promise to fix this issue next week.

A look at SEGA’s 2010 line-up


Can you name all the games that SEGA has planned for 2010? I could probably name quite a few and still miss some, that is why we now have a video that shows us most of those games coming out in 2010. The video was made by our resident troll, SEGA Uranus. Eikichi Yazawa’s Loser is used in the video, the song was the theme song for Yakuza 3 in Japan.

What games are you guys most excited for? I personally can’t wait to get my hands on Yakuza 3.
