    Could SEGA find a niche in todays digital only world?

    Dear Sega,

     

    I hope this letter finds you riding the wave of nostalgia and innovation that has always been your hallmark. I am one of the countless fans whose voice has longed to see Sega leap back into the console hardware race, even though the timing never seemed quite right. The landscape of gaming has evolved, with future consoles setting their sights on a digital-only horizon. Yet, in this shift, there lies a unique opportunity.

     

    There’s a palpable charm in the tactile feel of a game cartridge or disc, in the artistry of a physical case, and the permanence of owning a tangible piece of gaming history. This magic is what a segment of gamers fear losing in the all-digital future. Sega, if you were to release even a console with modest hardware that champions physical media, I believe you would garner an instant following overnight. There are so many of us who still wish to buy and cherish our games in a form that we can display, share, and enjoy in a traditional sense.

     

    This approach could be a brilliant strategy for Sega to carve its way back into the hardware market. Not only would it appeal to the retro enthusiasts and collectors but also to those who simply crave the option to own physical copies of their games, an audience that feels increasingly marginalized as the industry pivots towards digital-only offerings.

     

    Imagine a console that captures the essence of Sega’s pioneering spirit, one that embraces the past while looking to the future. A machine that balances performance with the promise of a tangible library, perhaps even offering creative incentives for physical purchases. It’s a bold move, but boldness is part of Sega’s DNA, is it not?

     

    As a company that has always dared to dream differently, this could be a momentous opportunity to reconnect with old fans and capture new hearts, all while reigniting the passion for physical media that seems to be slowly dimming in the gaming world’s collective consciousness.

     

    Thank you for the memories, the innovation, and the dreams. Here’s to hoping you’ll once again disrupt the gaming world with a touch of that Sega magic.

     

    Warm regards and best wishes,

    Games for me have lost their way.  The lust for bigger worlds, betterererer graphics and realism.  Even sonic lost its charm in a 3D world.  Would games find their magic if they were constrained by older tech, could innovation and retro collide to make a gaming future where you don't download updates?  Multiplayer on the net only, no DLC, no payment plans.  Sounds good to me.

    Micro transportation.  Clive Sinclair had it right, just a bit early.  Cities and all new developments need to build cycle lanes that cut through to the right places.  Regulate and permit personal e scooters.  Up the limit on power for bikes.  Even the Citroen Ami has a role for nipping about.  But as long as people are driving Porsche hybrids that are massive and worse on fuel than a small car we're not going to make any progress.

    Thinking of getting the dlc for pc.  Bit annoyed that it isn't cross purchase.  I love the pick up and play aspect of PlayStation, but pc is better for serious accuracy when you really need to make a sniper shot for example.  Only draw back is the convoluted way of need to integrate PlayStation chat.

    Next gen has been incredibly flat so far....

    Cross play has certainly stifled growth.  And any title that is multi platform will have to cater for the lowest common denominator. But it isn't the best graphics that make the best game.  GTA5 is still going and I think it's largely to do with the modding community.  Some of the servers that alex plays on are unrecognisable from the original game, and there are so many about.  Games like that should focus on making tools and handing them over to the millions of modders who will produce much better content than a studio ever could. 

     

    I'm totally over the endless cycle of cod games, I'm not sure I could stomach another.   We need innovation, not repeats.

    It's pretty sweet, had a quick go on Day Z.  Obviously with the ultra wide monitor its got more pixels to chuck about, but it handles it nicely.

     

    Alex has inherited my old rig, but I'd like to bump the GPU up a bit, the 7600K is a nice enough CPU for what he plays so no drama there.
