Sega.com gets a new look

Its been years since we had the old look on the Sega of America website. So i’m glad we got a new look, even if the update sorta reminds me of the Sega of Japan website. I guess it gets the job done. Though all the white reminds me of the Nintendo site.

GAME asks for your favourite game of all time

 

UK based retailer GAME is asking anybody and everybody to vote for their favourite video game of all time. Unlike a lot of ‘Best Ever’ votes where you have to choose from a list of crappy over-rated games, you actually get to name any game ever made. Which is pretty cool.
