Tomorrow on The @SEGAGuys...
The original Sonic the Hedgehog turns 35 years old this month.
But does the very first game hold up? Join me for the history and a deep dive into what makes that first Sonic adventure so special.

Finally getting round to my customary read-along of Sega Saturn Magazine with the @SEGAGuys podcast after a busy couple of weeks made me late to the party!
Interesting issue this one, headlined by a port of one of PlayStationโs biggest hitters in Wipeout!
Love it! ๐
๐๏ธ @SEGAGuys podcast ๐
The SEGAHolic and I journey back to 1996 and issue 5 of Sega Saturn Magazine where a host of PlayStation games are Saturn bound.
Was this the turning point in the console war?

The length of a game bares little to no relation to its quality or worth.
Half Life 2 is 15 hours.
Super Mario 64 is 12 hours.
Doom is 5 hrs.
Sega Rally is 3 minutes!
People moaning about this need to grow up ๐คทโโ๏ธ

$70 for a game you can beat in 18 hours is criminal

I feel for Slot, but I think itโs the right decision.
He was dealt a really tough hand this season, but he didnโt produce enough with what he had, and the football was truly awful at times.
Forever grateful for the title, and wishing him all the best โค๏ธ

Liverpool FC can confirm Arne Slot is to depart his role as head coach with immediate effect and that the process to appoint a successor is under way.
He leaves with a Premier League title to his name and our deepest gratitude and appreciation.

New pick-up: Out Run on Game Gear!
This classic shrinks down brilliantly to Segaโs handheld and retains what makes the game great - the speed, the tunes, & the blue skies!
It can be expensive, but got this complete copy for a really reasonable price!

Game completed: PRAGMATA
I loved it. Really, really loved it.
Fantastic gameplay systems quite unlike anything else Iโve played.
An audio-visual treat from start to finish.
But most importantly, the storytelling & characters have so much heart.
Wonderful game โค๏ธ

I am going to miss having Andy Robertson at the football club so much.
At his peak, the best left back in the world, but also clearly an incredible teammate, and played the game with the passion and determination of a fan on the pitch.
Youโll Never Walk Alone Robbo!

What game do you own multiple copies of?
Do you just love it so much you want more, or are there regional differences in the game or artwork that mean you just need them all?
NiGHTS is an all-timer for me and I feel compelled to own as many copies as possible ๐

This Liverpool side rivals the Hodgson team as the worst Iโve watched.
It doesnโt feel like Iโm watching Liverpool. I just donโt recognise my club in this team ๐
I donโt understand how the leadership are watching this and canโt see that a change needs to be made.

I adore Castle of Illusion on Game Gear, & after watching @Gaming_For_Ages chat about its Mega Drive version, I thought it was about time I gave that a play too!
Although quite basic, charming visuals and sound make it a fun time, but Iโd say itโs still better on the Game Gear!
Castle of Illusion made a hell of an impression on the early 90s!
That silky animation, those beautiful levels, that Disney magicโฆ it was stunning!
But three decades - and countless Disney Games later - how does it hold up?!
Find out in our new vid!

I love Sonic R!
I got it for Christmas 97 & have played it ever since. For me the thing that really makes it sing is the analogue control of the Saturn 3D pad!
Canโt wait to see how it feels on Dreamcast, but based on this from the @SEGAGuys itโs looking great! ๐๐๐
๐๏ธ @SEGAGuys video ๐
The latest port coming to the Sega Dreamcast comes from the Sega Saturn as JNMartin84 brings the iconic Sonic R to the console.

I love #Pragmata!
Picked it up as it looked right up my street and wanted to support a big original single player game that we get too few of these days!
Unique gameplay ideas that are well executed, interesting story, engaging characters, gorgeous visuals - highly recommended!

New pick-up: Super Off Road for the Game Gear!
Love this game! Thereโs a port on pretty much every platform of the era, and the addictive, endlessly playable gameplay loop is pretty bulletproof regardless of where you play.
I particularly enjoy this GG version though!

Had a great day in beautiful Oxford at Phoenix Fest with Child 2.
Some awesome workshops and chats with artists and writers, all housed in the stunning Sheldonian and University buildings.
Highly recommend for next year if your kids (and grown-ups ๐) are into comics!
