Graham and I are back in action again this week with another exciting Sega Nerdcast episode. Wow, weâve finally broken the 20 mark, and itâs only taken us about two years. Hopefully, weâll be much more frequent from here on out.

Actually, the plan is to publish the Nerdcast every Monday afternoon at the beginning of the week and cap the week off with the community podcast every Friday.

There was just so much great and sad news to talk about from last week, so if you missed out on anything, you really need to check this out!

Direct download: Sega Nerdcast 20
Show length: 1 hour, 19 minutes
File size: 36.2MB

Show notes:

• Graham discusses his current job situation â or lack there of. Unofficial time Graham has been unemployed - 1 year.
• Chris talks about his horrible week. From getting sunburned very badly to having his house flood, it was a really shitty week for poor Chris.
• We talk about the awesomeness that is House of the Dead: Overkill. Seriously, itâs like really effing good.
• Is Sega trying to pull the wool over Sega Nerdâs eyes everywhere by saying it couldnât include Sonic 3 & Knuckles because the development time would have taken so long? Read more here.
• Sega makes the week a happy time by announcing three new games: Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games, Virtua Tennis 2009 and Aliens vs. Predator.
• Then, it makes us all sad again with the rumors that itâs shutting down work on Aliens RPG, possibly forcing Obsidian to layoff 20 employees and creating problems for Alpha Protocol.
• Graham talks about his hands-on time with MADWORLD and The Conduit at Segaâs Guns âNâ Gore II event.

As always, we welcome your feedback. If you have any suggestions, requests or hate mail, please send them all to us here. Hope you enjoy!

Although we didnât have quite as much big news to talk about as we did last week, we were still able to squeeze out enough Sega goodness to put together yet another Sega Nerdcast. In this weekâs episode, we have Hudson and George joining Graham, Nathan and myself for an hour-long chat where we discuss more Platinum Games information, Shiren 3 and Sega Rally 3.

We follow that up in the second half with our second edition of Name That Tune, but the big question is will the Sega Nerds team vindicate themselves after last weekâs embarrassing showing? Youâll have to listen and find out!

But we capped it off with possibly the greatest episode of the Sega Nerdcast to date. I was joined by pretty much the entire staff with Graham, Nathan, James and George. As you might have surmised, we talk at length about Sega Gamerâs Day, Grahamâs experience at the Sega/Platinum Games press conference and we unveil a new feature - Name That Tune in the last segment.

Iâm baaaaaaaack! After having to ride the bench last week due to my bratty newborns (just kidding, I love the kiddos), Iâm back in action.

This weekâs Nerdcast covers all the exciting Sega news that took place throughout the week, including Segaâs official announcement for Sonic Unleashed. We also talk about what weâve been playing this week and even touch on a rather disturbing topic during the âIt Came From the Forumsâ? segment. Oh yeah, we also reveal who won the super grand prize of Mystery Dungeon: Shiren the Wanderer. But youâll have to listen to find out who the winner is!

• Check out the old Dreamcasterâs Realm site and then our equally ugly redesign!
• Graham reviews Sega Bass Fishing and James reviews House of the Dead 2 & 3 Return;
• Some of our forum members werenât too impressed with Viking: Battle for Asgard;
• Did the United Nations really have a secret UFO meeting? and
• For the winner of Mystery Dungeon: Shiren the Wanderer, please email me or send me a PM in the forums!

Itâs that time of the month/year/well whenever we can be bothered really, again. Itâs the Sega Nerdcast number 15.

We have something a little different for you this week, a change of hosts. After an intense weekend of Viking: Battle for Asgard psyching me up, I decided to overthrow the evil Chris and lock him in a cupboard, with only a slither of cheddar to nibble upon, and take the reigns of the show myself.

Joining me in the uprising is the super sexy Ryan and the possibly Canadian James.

Weâre back in action again this week to deliver our lovely listeners audial orgasms by the way of the Sega Nerdcast! This week, our newest staff member, James, joins myself, Graham and Ryan on the âcast, and I think itâs safe to say weâll definitely have him back in the very near future.

If you were all good boys and girls and listened to the show in its entirety, you would have heard that weâre giving away a free copy of Segaâs newest *cough* masterpiece â Mystery Dungeon: Shiren the Wanderer!

All you have to do to be eligible to win is post a comment in this post telling us what is the crappiest game youâve ever played and why. Oh yeah, you also have to be a U.S. citizen and never have traveled to Mexico. Okay, Iâm totally kidding on that list bit, but if you want to get some Shiren action, let us know about your crappy game experiences!

Holy crap! Weâve actually completed a couple Nerdcasts now in less than two months! Weâre on some kinda roll right now. Despite a few audio issues with my mic, this is probably one of our better shows to date; thatâs probably why itâs also the longest.

Our prodigal son, Nathan, makes his much-anticipated return in this episode, and Peter and Stuart from Bizarre Creations join us to discuss The Club. Thereâs tons of great content here, so if you have a couple hours to burn, why donât you kick back, grab a beer and hang out with your friends at Sega Nerds!

After yet another lengthy delay, the Sega Nerds crew was finally able to get together yesterday to record the Sega Nerdcast, where we talk about all the recent happenings with Sega.

In this week's episode, we've unleashed yet another new feature to please the listeners. It's called "It Came From the Forums." In it, we'll find an interesting forum thread each week and talk about what was discussed in it and expound on the subject. Hopefully, you guys like it.

Continuing to give you guys new things, we also have a new co-host this week - Ryan! Yay! We're seriously going to get back to doing this on a regular basis, and we hope you guys enjoy it.

In this week's episode, Nathan goes into detail about his trip to the Petroglyph studios where Sega Nerds was only a handful of sites from the United States to get invited, Graham talks about his HD discovery and I give some earth-shattering news that will shake the foundations of life as we now know it.

We also announced our winner from the Sound Byte in the Sega Nerdcast 10. Congrats to Rohan Black, you guessed that the sound clip was from Jet Set Radio, and you were right! You're now the winner of a copy of Crush!

But in this episode, we're upping the stakes! We're giving away a brand-spanking new Locationfree Player to whomever can guess this week's Sound Byte. If you have the cojones, enter.

However, to make it even better for you, we're giving away another copy of Crush since no one other than Silverslug decided to enter last week's contest. But to show him our appreciation, we're sending him a copy anyway. Thanks again, Silverslug.

In our 10th Nerdcast, we continue to tweak and change the format to give all our listeners an even better product. This week, we introduce a few more segments - The Good, The Bad and The Other Thing (TGTBATOT) and Name That Tune. In TGTBATOT, we get to talk about things throughout the industry that are good, bad and somewhere in between.

And the Name That Tune gives you a chance to win a copy of Crush. Listen up, and if you can name it, send your answer to contest@seganerds.com. For you lazy asses out there, skip to 1:25:20 mark to get right to the action.

Also, be sure to listen to this one because we cover a lot of interesting topics such as the Sonic RPG, The Quiz, Graham's obsession with Oblivion and Nathan's lack of a social life. It definitely has something for everybody.

Nathan wasn't able to make this week's recording, so you're stuck with just Graham and myself, but I'm sure the ladies won't mind listening to our sexy voices! :)

After a couple week hiatus, the Sega Nerdcast is back in full force with our very own theme song courtesy of Glenn Case. I must say, itâs a pretty catchy tune, and Iâve found myself humming it to myself during the day.

In this weekâs Nerdcast, we talk about the exciting news from Sega Gamerâs Day, the Captain S finale and the Small Japanese Soldier kidnapped Sega developer. Since you guys picked Streets of Rage for the Flashback, we played it feverishly, and we bring you our thoughts on this Sega classic. And Graham asks some of the hardest-damn questions during the Fact or Fiction segment.

All in all, I think itâs a pretty great show, and I think you guys will enjoy. Take a listen, and let us know what ya think!

Ya know what the great thing about covering Sega is? Even when itâs a slow news week, you can always rest assured the Sega fanbase will be right there to offer you up something juicy, and this week it certainly didnât disappoint.

Somehow, after we managed to quit laughing at poor baby YujiNaka, we were able to record this weekâs Nerdcast. I must say from a unbiased, unabashed and totally impartial perspective, this weekâs episode may very well be the best one yet. And ya know whatâs the real surprise? I only had one Crown and Coke during the making of this episode. However, three small midgets were died during the recording â a small price to pay for the awesomeness that is the Sega Nerdcast, though.

In this weekâs Nerdcast, we introduce two brand new features - The Water Cooler and The Quiz. I wonât spoil them for you, but I do think everyone will enjoy them quite a bit. As always, please leave us feedback, because thatâs how we get better and we love hearing everyone tell us how much we suck. Seriously, we do.

Welcome to another grand edition of the Sega Nerdcast. This week, we have a couple of special guests in Brett and Devon from The New Adventures of Captain S. Well, Devon chimes in intermittently throughout the show when he can find the time to tear himself away from a grueling session of Sonic 3.

However, there are a few hiccups later on in the show, but I guess that's what happens when you have a podcast that spans four separate locations, three of which are thousands of miles away for each other. I'd like to think, though, that this show was just too damn hot for the intertubes, and we overloaded the internet.

As always, we walk you through the latest Sega news that has hit the wire, we review Sonic 3, argue over which Sonic game is the best and really show just how damn geeky nerdy we are!

Enjoy!

However, we haven't been sitting around doing nothing during the downtime. Oh no sir, we've added some really cool new features like The Flashback where we play and talk about an old-school Sega game voted on by our readers, and The Nerd Wars, where we debate a controversial topic surrounding Sega or the video game industry in general.

I kid you not, this is the best Nerdcast yet. If you haven't listened to one yet, I highly suggest you check this one out and go back and listen to the rest. You'll be a better person for it. And if you aren't fully satisfied with it, we'll refund your full amount plus shipping and handling! What a deal, right?

Also, we're giving away a copy of Shining Force: EXA for the PS2. All you have to do is tell us what you thought of this week's Nerdcast right here in this post. Please give us some decent feedback, because it's really important to us.

This is a can't-miss episode for sure. I want to apologize ahead of time; it seems Nathan's a giant ogre who likes to punch his keyboard during the recording of the Nerdcast. You can rest assurred that he's received his ample supply of floggings and beatdowns, however.

As always, please leave us feedback. Your comments are very important to us, and we take them to heart. Oh yeah, give us some good ol' iTunes reviews and Diggs, too!

In this week's Nerdcast, Chris interviews the Captain S crew (the sound gets a tad choppy in a few parts, sorry!), we reveal details on a new Sega Racing Studio rumor, we chat about Sega's hilarious poll and we give away our very own copy of Sonic and the Secret Rings! So don't be a douche ... check it out!

Also, be sure to listen to the Sega Nerdcast to find out how you can win a free copy of Sonic and the Secret Rings! Weâll announce the winner on next weekâs Sega Nerdcast.
