30 Years of Panzer Dragoon Zwei: Why This Saturn Gem Still Soars Today | The SEGA Spirit Show Ep2207 mai 202602:30:29

Take flight with us as we dive deep into Panzer Dragoon II Zwei on the SEGA Saturn; the game that transformed the series from a stylish rail shooter into a full‑blown cult classic.

In this episode of The SEGA Spirit Show, Graham and Scotty Mo break down everything that makes Zwei special:

- Branching routes

- Dragon evolution

- Adaptive difficulty

- Hidden end‑game ranks (including some the Internet doesn’t even list!)

- The music, the lore, the presentation, and why this game still hits in 2026

Whether you’re a Saturn die‑hard, a Panzer Dragoon fan, or just discovering the series, this is one of the most fascinating games SEGA ever produced — and we’re giving it the love it deserves.

Like, subscribe, and ride with us into the Ancient Age.

When Pop Stars & SEGA Collide: Awesome 90s Marketing Madness At Its Finest! | SEGA Spirit Show Ep2018 mars 202601:52:44

This episode of the SEGA Spirit Show, Graham and Scotty Mo dive into one of the most wonderfully 90s SEGA crossovers ever: the moment pop star, Cathy Dennis, became part of SEGA Power and Gamesmaster history.

We look back at the SEGA Power articles where Cathy talked about her love of SEGA gaming, her appearance on Gamesmaster, and the genuinely surreal free cassette tape the magazine gave away - featuring Cathy reading out gameplay tips for SEGA titles, mixed with a couple of her own tracks. It’s the kind of promo that could only have happened in the 90s, when magazines were still throwing every idea at the wall to see what stuck.

Join us as we dig through the coverage, the tape, the TV appearance, and the wider context behind this odd little moment where SEGA, pop music, and 90s marketing all collided. A proper time capsule - and a very SEGA one at that.

Plus we have our hot SEGA Community News, full of hot Dreamcast news! And Graham showcases 3 top Dreamcast games from the Dream Disc '25 competition.

Was Full Auto Underrated? SEGA’s Explosive Xbox 360 Racer Revisited! | SEGA Spirit Show Ep.1704 févr. 202602:10:39

Start your engines - Episode 17 of The SEGA Spirit Show is here, and this week we’re diving head‑first into SEGA’s explosive 2006 Xbox 360 car‑combat racer Full Auto! 🚗💥

Graham and Scotty revisit the game with fresh 2026 eyes:

• Did SEGA’s “Unwreck” mechanic still hold up?

• Was Full Auto overshadowed by Burnout, Twisted Metal, and Vigilante 8?

• And is still worth playing it today?

Did you play Full Auto on the Xbox 360? Do you still play it today? Let us know your favourite memories and thoughts on the game! Good or bad!

Plus, we talk SEGA community news, retro pickups, movies we’ve been watching, and the usual chaos you expect from the show.

Announcement: The SEGA Spirit Show is taking a break for Christmas05 déc. 202500:01:34

Hello dear viewers and listeners, The SEGA Spirit Show is taking a little break for December and Christmas.

This is partly due to both of us needing a little downtime - life is pretty busy with work, wives, families and doing the show. But also (mostly) due to the time difference - because Graham is away in Australia for the rest of the year.

We'd like to thank all of you for your support. And, if you haven't already, be sure to check out some of our earlier videos!

012 Undead Disaster: We Watched Uwe Boll’s House of the Dead… So You Don’t Have To! | SEGA Spirit Show 01224 oct. 202502:37:39

Welcome back to the SEGA Spirit Show! Kicking off the 2025 spoopy season, we dive headfirst into Uwe Boll’s infamous 2003 “adaptation” of SEGA’s House of the Dead 🧟 We look at a play-by-play of the film’s most baffling choices and plenty of laughs at the expense of daytime raves, random game footage, and dialogue that makes the original arcade and Saturn games look Oscar-worthy. It’s a cinematic trainwreck - but someone had to watch it. Luckily for you, that someone was us.

 

Also in this episode, we have our usual hot SEGA Community News, including: A new game from the makers of Bomb Rush Cyberfunk, Final Fight for the Mega Drive gets 3-player support! Grab Mute Crimson for the Dreamcast for FREE. Plus a new racer coming to the Mega Drive/Genesis that has an awesome demo.

Plus, as always, we have our hot SEGA community news! Including a sexy new Dreamcast controller with a... (wait for it) colour screen built in! A new 3D platformer for the Dreamcast! OutRun is now on the (shock) GameBoy Color, and there's a new horror game heading to the SEGA Mega Drive/Genesis.

005 Sonic Birthday Special: Sonic’s Best, Worst & ’Other’ Games Across the Ages! | SEGA Spirit Show 00524 oct. 202502:58:44

Join Graham and Scotty Mo as we celebrate Sonic’s birthday by racing through our favourite, least-favourite, and most unpredictable Sonic titles! From Mega Drive classics to funky spin-offs you’ve probably forgotten about, we’ve got the ultimate Good, Bad & 'Other' Sonic Games lineup.

Plus in the Spirit of SEGA Community News... we have an update on the Mario Kart 64 Dreamcast port by JNMARTIN!

Over in the world of Sonic hacks, Sonic Mania Plus has been made to boot on real Dreamcast hardware by developer SonicFreak94. RetroSumus, the team behind Xenocider, has just launched a demo for Soviet Borgs — an alternate-history run-and-gun where the USSR won the Cold War. It’s coming to Dreamcast, Mega Drive, MS-DOS, and Neo Geo, and their IndieGoGo campaign is live now.

Neofid Technology is preparing CopperStorm, a new steampunk shoot-’em-up inspired by Thunderforce 4 and Metal Slug, for SNES, Mega Drive, and Neo Geo. A Kickstarter is on the way, though we’re still waiting on screenshots and footage.

Finally, Nicomegadrive has shared early previews of Final Fantasy Mystic Quest running on Mega Drive hardware. This SNES classic is being ported to Mega Drive/Genesis with progress updates streaming on X/Twitter.

SEGA Spirit Show ep 4: Happy 65th birthday SEGA! ... maybe?

Join Graham and Scotty on the latest episode of the SEGA Spirit Show as they dive into one of gaming’s most puzzling questions: exactly how old is SEGA, really?

In this episode, we explore SEGA's tangled history, from its humble beginnings in the 1940s as a coin-op machine distributor to its evolution into the iconic video game powerhouse of today. Is it 85, 74, 65, or even just 41 years young? We break down the clues, tease apart conflicting timelines, and examine the milestones that have defined SEGA through the decades.

Alongside a spirited debate on SEGA’s true birthday, we celebrate all things retro, sharing classic game shoutouts, community news, and more.

Whether you’re a die-hard retro gamer, a history buff, or simply curious about the myths behind the legend, this episode is a nostalgic joyride packed with fun facts, lively opinions, and plenty of that infectious SEGA spirit.
