SEGA will be having a ‘SEGA MEGA’ sale starting December 21st. They stated that the games will be from XBLA, PSN and of course iOS devices (don’t they always get sales?), discounts will be up to 70%. That is a nice savings

SEGA has 20 games lined up for the holiday sale, but we won’t find out what they are till December 21st. Bummer. Here is a link to their Facebook event for the sale. Sucks, I already own all the titles I want from XBLA/PSN.

Sonic fan film to get original Sonic voice actor

If you guys didn’t know, there is some fans working on a Sonic the Hedgehog film, Eddie Lebron is already in the finishing stages of the fan movie. Now, if you are asking yourself if the guy in the middle is an older Steve Urkel from Family Matters fame… it is.

Jaleel White white was the first voice actor for Sonic, he voiced him in three cartoons. Seems the fan film has pulled the retired Sonic voice actor back to the hot seat, according to the site they had him record as a older and younger Sonic, they are still going to choose what version to use. The film is set to be 10-15 minutes long, so don’t expect a Lord of the Rings long movie.

Do you love limited released SEGA stuff? I do, even though I never get anything and all the good stuff is from Japan. When SEGA does put good stuff on their Free Stuff Friday, some dude named MarioLugiKratos always ends up getting it. Bummer.

The demo is going to be limited to 10,000 units. To get one you have to cross a Rappy’s ears and then fill out some application stuff. This is all for Japan, you can also fill out this application and hand it to SEGA at their Jump Festa booth.

SEGA To Release Dreamcast Collection At Retail, Publish One More Game From Platinum

The news from that Game Informer interview has been pouring in today. We posted the interview scan on the site days ago, but didn’t mention much about the actual news!

Earlier in the week, Alan Pritchard spilled loads of beans about SEGA’s future. Perhaps most surprisingly, he let slip that they where making a Dreamcast Collection, something we revealed was listed on GameStop’s website. It was only listed for the Xbox 360. Given it’s cheap price, it’s likely that this may just be a retail release of the XBLA Dreamcast titles. For more info on the listing, check the link.

Pritchard also revealed that another Platinum Games title was being produced in collaboration with SEGA. So we now know that the deal will expand to at least one more game.

To see the interview in full without looking at a scan, look here.

Oh God! Kinect + Hatsune Miku = your perverted fantasies

Hatsun Miku fans are the odd, probably odder than Sonic fans. Actually no, they aren’t odder, just a different type of odd. Here is another PC Kinect hack that will send the freaks flying. OpenNI, Kinect and MikuMikuDance software, you can move her 3-D model around. Its not perfect, like the lower body tracking.

Regardless, pretty interesting stuff. I guess this will sell some Kinect units in Japan. Maybe SEGA will be interested in bringing a official game over? Here is another video to fap to.

New Yakuza announcement coming Thursday

Are you ready? The Yakuza website is teasing an announcement for Thursday? What could it be? Most of their announcements are always quite obvious, a new game in the series most of the time. Another PSP game?

Maybe they will port this one to the Xbox 360? How long have we heard people hope for that. Would be good, at least in America. Could be the Yakuza of the End release date, since Japan hasn’t gotten a official date.
