For fans of sweet figures and Vanquish, today is probably the best day of your life. That is of course because Square Enix are bringing out a range of Vanquish figures in May. Sam and Bogey from the game have been revealed and it looks like you’ll be able to pose them in a number of cool/sexy ways.

The Sega Addicts Top 10 Post-Dreamcast Games
Dec 10th
Remember when Sega decided to get out of the hardware business and go strictly third-party? So do we and while it was a disappointing decision for Sega fans across the globe there have been some great games published by Sega since the demise of the Dreamcast. The following list is the combined opinion of the Sega Addicts staff with what we feel are the top 10 games released by Sega since going third-party.
Remember to take into account that this is a list created by over 10 people and we had to take into account that some great games have not been played by many of us and thus were left off of the list. (Translation: More people need to play the Yakuza series!)
So read on dear site viewer and be enlightened by some great games released by Sega but not on Sega consoles…

Unskippable riffs on Vanquish
Jan 9th
For those of you who don’t watch the brilliant Unskippable, it’s basically the Mystery Science Theatre of videogames. It’s always consistently funny and definitely worth your time. Especially when they riff on stupid as hell cut scenes, which Vanquish has plenty of.
The gang did a two parter just for the game. So that’s something nice to watch on a lazy Sunday. Woo.
