A MAN'S DREAMCAST DIGITAL WATCH

No doubt handed out to ungrateful people back in the day. People who binned them at the time, unaware that they would now be sitting on something worth at least £5.99 on eBay.

“I did a bit of tidying up today and found two Dreamcast tins, one badly bent out of shape, and the other perfect. Just for you, I opened the bent one to see what was inside.”

“A Dreamcast digital watch! Hope these pictures are useful!” – Steve.

“PS: Did I ever email you an mp3 of a Sonic Hedgehog song, or did I just send a photo of the cover? Let me know if you want it.”

No idea. And it’s not really a Dreamcast watch. It’s a very, very cheap Chinese watch that someone at SEGA paid £250 to have the logo printed on. The Dreamcast experience is not reflected in the design.

BITS OF THE WORLD THAT STILL HAVE SEGA SYMBOLISM ON DISPLAY: VERVIERS IN BELGIUM

Belgium! Let’s go to Belgium! It is the promised land! We will be able to walk the streets proud of who and what we are. There will be no more hiding, no more clandestine midnight liaisons with a copy of Bomberman and a Saturn multi-tap.

“Yesterday I was (for my work) in a relatively small town in the southern part of Belgium, called ‘Verviers’. When I was walking down town, I noticed an arcade with a genuine Sonic sign. Yep, it’s the same Sonic picture we saw on the mighty Mega Drive box of the original Sonic the Hedgehog!”

“As I really like your features where you show several places that still carry the SEGA symbolism, I thought ‘let’s take a few pictures for the guys from UK:RESISTANCE!’ So hereby I kindly send you the pictures.”

“Keep up with the good work! And could you might post a link to our (Dutch) SEGA website? It’s at www.segaonline.nl. We attend all events, media trips from SEGA around the Benelux and the rest of the world (Leipzig, E3, TGS). Cheers, Maarten.”

UPDATE:
SEGA puts the SEMEN in Amusement Park. This has definite potential to be one of those jokes where you zoom in closer and closer.

The subconscious reason we love SEGA so much?

NEW CREAM THE RABBIT ARTWORK!

Sonic Team may well be trying to erase her from history, but the makers of Sonic Chronicles haven’t forgotten her and her little fuck-me-socks. She ticks all known boxes.

  • BENDING OVER
  • HITCHING UP DRESS TO REVEAL BOTTOM/TAIL
  • NEEDY SMILE
  • PLAYFULLY SLAPPING OWN ARSE
  • JPEG compression factor 8. Nothing is too good for her

    And fluffy ears to wipe your penis on afterwards. The perfect companion.

    DREAMCAST HOME FURNISHINGS: REVISITING THE BATHROOM

    Here’s something to go with your Dreamcast shower – a Dreamcast toothbrush holder complimented superbly by a matching soap dish.

    Brushing your teeth without making eye contact with your disgusting reflection will be more fun than ever!

    Dreamcast toothbrush holder and matching soap tray

    Sent in by a man who calls himself “fightingchance” who used his mobile phone camera. Yes, that is it for today.

    DEEP INSIDE SEGA EUROPE #3: THE SIGN IN THE TOILETS

    A man went to a “community day” at SEGA Europe. The food and travel was paid for. The food was probably a buffet consisting mainly of tuna sandwiches, so don’t get too jealous. He did get to do a poo in the SEGA toilet, though, then took a photo of the sign inside the cubicle. Here is his tale:

    “Thought you might like to know that I went on a ‘community day’ (which is basically flash talk for inviting a load of geeks) at SEGA HQ yesterday to witness the arm-straining epicness of Mario and Sonic at the Olympic games. Not only was food and travel paid for, I got to meet Sonic and Mario (in reality two out of work drama female students in horrendous costumes, but hey, they poured their hearts and souls into it), make a complete arsehole of myself and – best of all – take a huge dump in SEGA’s toilet! I’ve attached a photo of the sign that’s on the inside of said dumpster; it’s not particularly amusing but it has SEGA written on it, so I took more notice of it than I would have usually done of signage in bogs.”

    SEGA Europe - cleanliness is next to amazingness

    Please wipe the semen off the seat.

    ELSEWHERE ON "THE NETWORK" #00036

    Every time you click on one of these links, someone in an office somewhere gets an inflated idea of how many people read UKR. Occasionally, we’ll put in a solid hour doing nothing but opening all of these up in separate tabs. It helps us achieve erection.

  • This thing about Band X releasing a song in Video Game Y.
  • This thing about maybe downloading Spore off the internet and not even bothering to install it just to piss off THE MAN (although the “angle” we used at the time was different and much less interesting).
  • This thing about whoever owns the Commodore brand these days. Someone nicely explained the situation in a comment.
  • This thing about Microsoft managing to make a Japanese Xbox 360 graph point UP.
  • This thing about Gears of War 2 being the shittest game of all time, which we can get away with doing over there now because the commenting system is broken so nobody can leave messages calling us cunts.
  • This thing about Miss IFA being ignored, because you can’t not use pictures like this when they come along:
  • Plus German Secretary for MILF Promotion Dagmar Worhl

    Slightly erratic. Probably need to calm down a bit again. Tension building up inside once more. Need release. 5/10.

    INSTANT MESSAGING COSTS LIVES

    These are internal. Secret. For SEGA employee eyes only. We are NOT SUPPOSED to be seeing these images, images that tell SEGA staff not to post hints about what they’re working on at NeoGAF during lunchtime.

    You will RESPECT SEGA.

    OBEY

    Spotted by a man unfortunately named “Tyson” who pretty much just stole these off another part of the internet. Several months ago. We are not picky. Content is content. One more page on the internet means one less link in the chain we have built for ourselves to wear in the afterlife.

    YIELD

    We think someone emailed us a photograph taken inside the toilet of SEGA Europe a year or so ago. We’ll try and dig that one out for tomorrow. There’s something to look forward to.

    MARKUS & SONIC BEI DEN OLYMPISCHEN SPIELEN

    High-up SEGA Germany employee immortalised via medium of cake. Photograph of cake immortalised via rushed and half-hearted update on UKR. At least four UKR readers immortalised by leaving comments stating update is not funny. World continues to turn.

    German SEGA boss immortalised in cake

    “Here is a photo, I shot with my iPhone during GC. It shows a cake, that the folks from SEGA GERMANY made for their boss. It even has his face on it! (He is disguised as Mario). The cake looked awful, though. Like someone printed out the cover of the Mario and Sonic-Olympic-Game and stuck it on top of cold-pressed donkeyshit. Some foreign journalists garnished the cake with boogers and scrapings from the floor, while the booth-personnel were not looking. I also wanted to take a picture of that, but the aggressors threatened me with these huge TNA-Wrestling-Redneck-Merchandise-Foam-Pointy-Finger-things.”

    SOME MORE WORDS
    “Later when the SEGA-guys offered me a piece of that cake, I kindly refused the offer. Then someone offered me a cup of tea and I said ‘No thanks, that’s not my cup of tea!’ (Did you get the Joke? Hahaha! Although I love tea, I acted like I did not, so I got to do that hilarious joke!). Afterwards, I accidentally rubbed my elbow on one booth-babes large knockers, so it was a nice Games Convention after all! Your humble servant, Ahmet.”

    THE XBOX 360 "LIFESTYLE" EXPOSED

    Here are all those ‘lifestyle’ photographs Microsoft released yesterday, uploaded as part of our public service remit. Presumably these are mainly meant for those Southern European territories who buy consoles based on stuff like this.

    Xbox 360 LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHY!

    Let’s start with the most realistic. Tired old woman pretending to join in. Podgy man. The child they finally conceived after five painful years of IVF treatment. The console they bought her because she’s so special she can have anything she wants (she actually wanted a Wii).

    Xbox 360 LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHY!

    Older man, two young boys. Woman in background pretending not to notice. Nothing says UNDERGROUND DUTCH PAEDOPHILE RING more than this.

    Xbox 360 LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHY!

    Girls on left is playing with LIPS. Man on right is trying to get better look at girl’s LIPS. Whichever Microsoft employee picked the name LIPS is going to find themselves put in charge of overseeing Excel development in Eastern Europe after this mess.

    Xbox 360 LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHY!

    Never before have we wanted to be a ginger teenager.

    Xbox 360 LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHY!

    He’s moving in with the elbow. He’s going for the Accidental Tits Elbow!

    Xbox 360 LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHY!

    Accidental Tits Elbow with a twist! Sensational! There’ll be semen everywhere in his bedroom tonight!

    Xbox 360 LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHY!

    She noticed. Whoops. Now he won’t be able to look at a girl again until he’s 34.

    Xbox 360 LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHY!

    Photograph taken from the graphic novel titled WHAT THE FUCK HAS HAPPENED TO MODERN VIDEO GAMING?

    Xbox 360 LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHY!

    “Hooray! You both let me win because you want to try and have sex with me later!”

    Xbox 360 LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHY!

    Now they have moved onto the casual quiz game.

    Xbox 360 LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHY!

    Nobody knew the answer. It was in the cinema before they were even born, so it’s not their sweet, young faults.

    Xbox 360 LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHY!

    How unrealistic. That controller’s not even plugged in. Terrible.

    Xbox 360 LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHY!

    These photos are definitely meant for Europe. That’s the most European selection of children possible.

    Xbox 360 LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHY!

    By “European” we mean healthy and happy looking. English children sit there being fat and sad in official football shirts.

    Xbox 360 LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHY!

    They’re not leaning into each other enough.

    Xbox 360 LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHY!

    That’s better. That’s ROCK AND ROLL, and, by extension, COOL MODERN VIDEO GAMES FOR ATTRACTIVE PEOPLE.

    Xbox 360 LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHY!

    Frequency was ten times better, and you could sit down.

    Xbox 360 LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHY!

    “…and you turn around, that’s what it’s all about – HEY!”

    Xbox 360 LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHY!

    Now he’s blown any chance he may have had by getting the steering wheel out and insisting they play Forza 2 for a bit.
