You cold have also had “Sonic Yoda Hot To Troc” or “Arcade, Our-cade” to be honest, a tip from our friends at SEGA Driven, where webmaster Sonic Yoda went on a trip to Fun Land at the London Trocadero, the arcade experience formerly known as SEGA World.

You may remember this? Its Video Games Live 2007 in London, a member of the audience is picked up to play Space Invaders for real – it just so happens to be T-Bird. What follows is why Mr Tuff is a scientist not one of our finest warriors. Still, I bet he’d be awesome with a crowbar.

On The Radio (Woah Oh Oh), Major Radio Redux News

ArchangelUK — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 22:51:15 +0000

Sorry for the delay to those who were waiting for this, I’ve been doing all sorts since I’ve got home. Now, I teased some major news on Twitter the other day following announcements from Emerald Coast and a pretty major announcement from Radio SEGA. Well you might have guessed from the news title its to do with Radio Redux. Now before you get excited no, Radio Redux isn’t ending, I like doing Radio Redux! Radio Redux is something of an institution but I was wondering in our off period about where to take the show.

Now if you recall, Radio Redux joined SEGASonic Radio a couple of years back really as an emergency measure to plug the gap because there got to the stage where there simply wasn’t any regular live shows on except for Turbo Drive Live and The Raccoon Zone plugging away and SSR was in danger of collapsing. So yes it was indeed a case of AAUK to the rescue to help bolster it up a bit! However I’m pleased to say SEGASonic Radio no longer needs saving its very healthy and has a wealth of really entertaining shows. The “Sunday Showtime” block with The Sonic Hour and Radio Redux is highly popular but frankly SSR no longer needs Radio Redux.

So its time to help some other peeps out – but at the same time I like my SSR audience so don’t really want to leave them or to potentially broadcast against SSR(!) If only there was some way to do both…

Thankfully, I’ve worked out a way – and its a way that rather nicely makes Radio Redux THE biggest SEGA related show in the fanbase. You may have seen Radio SEGA’s announcement about doing livecasts now? Well the news is that Radio Redux is one of them! Yes indeed, essentially Radio Redux is now syndicated for the first time I think, ever a SEGA/Sonic podcast radio show will be simucasting on SEGASonic Radio AND Radio SEGA – there is no escape from us now!

My thanks to Radio SEGA incidentally for agreeing to let me stay on SSR, they’ll get the odd special coming their way and we’ll be discussing both SSR and RS related news so get used to that… we might even be a bit more “SEGA” than “Sonic” as well. Nothing wrong with that at all!

Radio Redux will be returning to SEGASonic Radio and will be debuting on Radio SEGA in the none too distant future at its usual time of 7:00pm (UK Time) every Sunday.

Community YouTube: T-Bird Says “Help Our Hedgehogs!”

ArchangelUK — Mon, 08 Mar 2010 15:00:33 +0000

More HOH than SOS, as part of the celebrations of the launch of Sonic Rush Adventure for the Nintendo DS, a rather enthusisastic public relations agency decided SEGA Europe had teamed up to help the British Hedgehog Preservation Society by tagging 100 hedgehogs to help track their movement. Unfortunately this was rubbish as neither SOE not the BHPS knew about it, as part of the promotion though fans were asked for their messages to help hedgehogs. T-Bird, knowing there was the promise of merchandise, leapt into action.
