THE SEGA MEGA MILK UNIGATE DAIRIES CHEATS BOOK

Another important piece of SEGA nostalgia merchandise has been discovered!

SEGA / MEGA MILK!

Sonic and Knuckles have been scribbled out. There’s a reason for this. The person who owns the book will explain himself in the next caption.

Sonic BLASPHEMY

If you look at the intro page, you can see where the young me crossed out all the Sonic pictures because I HATED Sonic for being RUBBISH. I am sorry.”

GAMESMASTER SAYS: Up Down Left Right A+Start

It’s not really a cheats book. It’s an empty notebook for you to write your own cheats down on. It must’ve been a lot easier to produce than today’s 200-page walkthroughs of Splinter Cell.

We still hate Mario to this very day

Mario cheats shouldn’t really be written down in a SEGA book.

Sonic 3 - the worst Mega Drive Sonic

If you’ve got some old rubbish on your attic that says SEGA on it, please send it in. We’re rapidly becoming the Wikipedia of SEGA.

OTHER PEOPLE FROM GAMES TV THAT AREN’T DOING VERY WELL THESE DAYS:

#2: Andy Crane off early-to-mid-90s video game TV show ‘Bad Influence’

He was always rubbish, a sort of nervous, albino Philip Schofield who was too jittery to ever be funny or watchable. He also looked suspicious all the time and too thin, probably because he’s a nervous fidget.

Anyway, he’s not dead from crack! He’s just in the purgatory of regional TV.

No wait, *local* TV — TV for Manchester! Specifically Manchester. Not the Manchester area, but a very particular bit of the centre of Manchester. He’s on Channel M, a new TV station that’s quite hard to get and definitely only for Manchester.

Andy’s introductory movie is stilted script reading at its best! He probably didn’t know it was going on the internet where people might see it, else he would’ve tried a bit harder. There’s also a woman reporter who walks with purpose and swishes her hair. We’re starting to think this might be a viral marketing joke site.

He’s also on the radio! It must be a hell of a hectic schedule for the real life Alan Partridge.

SO THAT’S WHAT ANDY CRANE IS DOING NOW
We have no other point to make, other than sort of reminding you and us about Andy Crane and seeing what he’s up to these days.

MULTICULTURAL XBOX 360 CLOTHING ADVERT

The subtext of this is that black people, Asian people and smug-looking American pricks people can all come together to call each other gay on Xbox Live:

The Xbox 360 community is vibrant and spans all cultures!

Xbox 360 appeals to all demographics!

There's a hooded top for if you want to mug people

This is for Microsoft booth babe cosplay

We'd like to immerse ourselves approximately six inches into that

It’s taken from the Xbox Gear Store which, optimistically, features tops and t-shirts in girl sizes.

YOU CAN EVEN BUY AN XBOX 360 HAT:

This is for 'fucking cunts'

The hat will get you “new friends“.

OUR NEW (ROBOT) BEST FRIEND

The global zeitgeist for the last 72 hours has been trawling through Arcade Flyers. The best thing on there – and in the world ever – is this. Sega Chan. A ready-made robot friend from Sega.

Sega Chan robot best buddy for angry loners

Its arms open 45-degrees! That means you could hug it, and it could hug you back. Its cold metal skin would be quite close to feeling love. We’d imagine.

SOMETHING ABOUT A CHARITY THING, FOR CHARITY

We hate charity. The last thing we did for charity was pretend an Ebay auction was for Africa, so the game we stole went for more.

Bizarre Creations charity drive thing

BUT! This is something for charity about driving rubbish cars across Europe, with Bizarre Creations staff – the nicest people in games – doing the driving and getting sponsored by RICHARD JACQUES! And if Richard thinks it’s OK, THAT MAKES IT OK!

This may also mark a Scrooge-like turning point for us in which we stop building the chains that will weigh us down in the afterlife.

WE’RE SORRY WE MADE FUN OF YOU, SEGA. YOU WERE RIGHT. YOU’RE ALWAYS RIGHT. TAKE US.

At Christmas we spoke lightly of Sega’s latest card game, Love and Berry. We said horrible things, like it was obviously the only game that girls would play as you didn’t have to do anything but wear clothes, and there was only ONE BIG BUTTON so they wouldn’t get confused. Obviously this was before we found out that it’s sold 43 MILLION CARDS (at about 50p a throw) in its first year alone. To little girls.

Love, Berry and OBEY

We’ve observed some of these “Little Girls” in their natural environment, and they’re not even talking about the ones with small tits. They mean real little girls. The kind whose hands aren’t even big enough to hold a Game Boy up yet.

Some might say that the time was right for a triumphant return to the hardware market.

A VIRTUAL ON POSTER THAT APPARENTLY ISN’T A JOKE

We asked. We asked MANY TIMES about if this is a joke or not. It’s not a joke. It was “a massive poster that went in US arcades to ‘promote’ the game” according to the Virtual On expert we asked. Get a load of it:

Virtual On: Humanoid Invasion

Photoshop was still in its developmental infancy.

THE SINGLE MOST AMAZING SEGA COLLECTIBLE OF ALL TIME

This is LEGEND! Not only is it the INCREDIBLY RARE Sega Toys Sega Folding Bicycle, but it’s an ULTRA-RARE RARE AMAZINGLY RARE-RARE model that comes in Japanese Dreamcast orange.

We’re not exaggerating to look cool on the internet — we would spend whatever amount of money it takes to get one of these. Even, say, one thousand pounds. Money would be no object in securing a Dreamcast Orange Folding SEGA Bicycle to put in a cupboard and never risk riding.

Dreamcast Orange Folding SEGA Bicycle!

Imagine bicycling to work on Dreamcast Orange Folding SEGA Bicycle. You’d look AMAZINGLY COOL for the first few minutes before you get beaten up by laughing schoolchildren.

Dreamcast Orange Folding SEGA Bicycle!

If Doctor Who had a mode of transport in his new series, it would be a Dreamcast Orange Folding SEGA Bicycle.

Dreamcast Orange Folding SEGA Bicycle!

This is in the UK at the moment, apparently in the hands (and occasionally beneath the buttocks of) a Japanese SEGA producer. We might invite ourselves down to SEGA’s office to worship at its BEAUTIFUL TINY LITTLE WHEELS.

TOMORROW:
The worst thing SEGA has ever done. Ever. Even including 32X.
