Right so what’s the plan for this Wednesdays EC Airwaves… err well I… err… oh bollocks looks like I’m going to have to use my emergency back up topic, unless I come up with something between now and then or someone emails me at vger.ec@googlemail.com with a good idea (hint hint). Either way I’ll be poking the irc with a cattle prod from 8pm this Wednesday links below.
This week is all about Sonic fan games, and what they mean to other fans, are they a cool way of expressing peoples love for a franchise, or are they cheap knock off’s of the real thing, do they take what Sonic has done and improve on it or do they just suck?
Well once again I’m doing a radio show Wednesday, and this week I have a topic planned already! I’m going to be talking about Sonic fan characters and if they are an original way of expressing peoples love for the franchise or are they just cheap rip off’s of the main cast.
As usual I’ll be throwing this question out to the irc to see what people think, and if you want you can email me your thoughts at my brand new email address: vger.ec@googlemail.com
So listen in tommorow only on SSR and have your say in the irc chatroom from 8pm for what is sure to be a fun show.
Just a heads up that I will be doing a radio show on SSR this Wednesday at 8pm, rather than the 9pm I’ve been doing recently, there are several good reasons for choosing the earlier time which essentially boil down to it being earlier so I’m less tired and the fact Urtheart is back on at 9pm.
I haven’t quiet made a decision what I’m going to talk about this week yet, so I may have to fall back on my emergency back up plan (be afraid), of course you can make the show more interesting by joining the irc chatroom (you need an irc client to view this I recommend the chatzilla plugin if you have firefox) and making requests for songs/annoying me.
So listen in to SSR from 8pm (GMT) Wednesday for EC Airwaves and Urtheart’s Boombox (9pm GMT), it’s just like the Sunday SSR line up except two hours later in the day.
Happy birthday Sonic! That’s right it’s Sonic’s birthday today along with Eggman who’s looking really worn out for his age, and lets not forget Shadow and Rouge who both turn 8 today… I’m sure there’s more but I think I’ve got the main ones covered.
Anyway what am I going to do in celebration of this momentous event? Well I was planning to do some special site updates for today however as is the way with these things there way behind schedule, and I do mean way behind, ‘sigh’ I’ll finish them eventually… maybe. Enough of my excuses unfortunately I have to work today so I’m rather limited in my celebrating capacity but I do plan on eating some cake along with a glass or two… or ten of port to celebrate true blue reaching the legal drinking age… in the UK… at the moment… I think, there trying to put it up to 21 but I don’t know if they’ve done it yet… any who enough of my rambling.
Happy birthday Sonic, may you have many many more. and don’t drink too much, I doubt it’ll do much good for your running.
Once again another week has rolled past with a location for SOS and more merch for the Americans but nothing for the Europeans as far as I can tell, anyway read on for more. (continue reading…)
It’s been a fairly busy week this week with a pile of Sonic content on the Xbox 360, and a little love for the PS3, anyway here’s this weeks new roundup of whats been going on in the world of Sonic. (continue reading…)
It’s that time of the week again when your feeling just a little to lazy to do anything productive, except maybe surf ebay for stuff and generally piss about on the internet. So why not try a little something different?
It’s almost time for E3 again and SEGA decided to get all its big announcements out of the way before the show starts up, rather sensible when you consider that the show is mostly dominated by the console manufacturers and the larger third parties, so of course we got a little bit of news this week… well okay one big bit.
Well it seems SEGA has been busy with the announcement of Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing coming 2010 to all the major formats, except for the psp (a shame really since I wouldn’t mind playing it on the psp). I’ll let you guys figure out what its about, but I will give you a video to help.
So is this the “huge Surprise” that was coming Friday that SEGA claimed yesterday? Well for a start its not Friday, and while this is a bit of a surprise to me, it doesn’t fall into the huge surprise category, so in a word no this is not what SEGA was hinting at on Wednesday, but I guess we will find out for certain tomorrow, till then enjoy the trailer. More info after the jump. (continue reading…)
