Greetings from FastFeet Media once again, whilst there has been a lack of updates this has been due to moving house, I’m all moved now so all we need is a good internet connection and we’re all done. That may be a little while away from now so updates will be coming in every now and then when I am able to make them.
To fill you in on what’s happening behind the scenes at the moment, the move has meant that FastFeet Media has a newly acquired studio space which will allow us to broaden the potential of the things we are producing. The website itself is going to get a few tweaks and a reshuffle layout-wis. You may already notice that we have some new advertisers at the top of the website so help support FastFeet Media by visiting them and who knows… you might find something you like! As we’re non-profit all ad revenues goes to help support the FastFeet Media server costs and nothing else.
FastFeet Media also has some new staff joining us soon, so keep an eye out for their updates. Other than that I’ll be working on finishing off some long overdue projects, so until we’re properly back check out all the site has to offer as far as downloads, music and video go for the time being. See you all soon ~FastFeet~

Doesn’t time fly?! I launched FastFeet Media on the 23rd of October in 2003 and to be honest back then I didn’t see it lasting this long but it has. With enough devotion to Sega and Sonic the website has stayed online through times good and bad, not only that I feel that the website is doing better than ever.
For a start I know we have our regulars who visit the website day in and day out so my thanks go out to all of you guys for visiting the site and staying devoted to Video Game and indeed Sega and Sonic the Hedgehog music and video. I’d also like to thank Sega Europe for their support towards FastFeet Media and the Sonic & Sega community in general. We look out for the Sega and Sonic community and clearly Sega do more than most games developers in the world to look out for their fans.

Following on from the amazingly best selling Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games comes the Winter Olympic version and just in time for the cold weather to set in, well in this side of the hemisphere anyways. Checkout the launch trailer direct from Sega, seeing as the game is out today, I’ve heard good things from people who have played this so far so it looks as good as the orginal – if not better! So if you have nothing better to do with your weekend grab your Wii or DS and get a copy from you local games store! Expect a full video review in SEGASonic:TV Series 2 and when I get ahold of my copy!

As FastFeet Media reported back here, the Golden Joysticks are the gaming industries awards ceremony held every year essentially. This year SEGA and Sonic the Hedgehog are into the final voting round with quite a few nominations. Sonic Unleashed is in several categories to win and, Football Manager and MadWorld are 2 other titles which Sega have been nominated for too and of course SEGA themselves could even win a Golden Joystick.
Cast your vote by visiting this page, if you do you’re also in with a chance of winning some gaming goodies too! My vote says it’s time Sega and Sonic won one of these shiny things…

It’s about time! Not only has Sega re-done their video logo which looks awesome as far as I’m concerned, but there is going to be a new Sonic the Hedgehog game and it’s going to be in 2D. Something us fans have been wanting for quite some time. My hopes? That it is a fully fledged game on 360/PS3 (as it will be HD apparently), perhaps 2.5D like Sonic Unleashed would be better in my opinion and a sprinkling of Sonic, Tails and Knuckles as playable characters bring back the classic Sonic 3 & Knuckles story and gameplay! SEGA – just please get the balance right from all your 20 Years of 3D and 2D experience. More to come soon…

Okay, so it’s not actually in the magazine but we are on their website, it’s only recently been added but the article is a set of interviews from Insert Coin ‘09, which we attended and DJ-ed at of course last month. I was fortunate enough to bump into Ben Talbot who is the community manager of Official Xbox 360 Mag (you’ll also see him in our SEGASonic:TV Insert Coin episode). After having a bit of a discussion around the DJ set we went off and did an interview.
Of course this is the other thing we did at Insert Coin, so don’t forget to check out the Peoww interview and of course below is the link to the Insert Coin ‘09 feature.

It may only be 24 hours away but I’m starting my trek to the first ever Insert Coin Arcade Convention. It’s going to be an interesting weekend as this is the first major event I’ve been to since Summer of Sonic 2008 and once again I’ll be DJ-ing for everyone attending.
With the exception that this time I will be laying down some pixelated beats all weekend, the convention takes place 10am – 8pm on both Saturday the 18th and Sunday the 19th. There will be a hefty display of both Sega and Sonic music but also an array of Video Game music too – ranging from Tekken 2 to Pop ‘n’ Twinbee and everything inbetween!
So how can you get involved? If you’re stuck at home or in another country for starters show me some comments guys by replying to this blog entry! But you can also request music and shoutouts by texting 44 78808 66405 – that number will work no matter what country you are in! Above all it’s stadard rate so it doesn’t cost anymore than usual!

Well guys, I’d thought that I better introduce myself here at FFM. I’m known around here as CrimsonHedgie, some of you may know me. I was around when FastFeet decided go independent but I usually went AWOL, but now I’m back for good (whether or not that’s a good thing I’ll leave to you XP).
So what can you expect from me here? Well I’ll be covering some news in the world of SEGA as well as some retro goodness in articles. In the next few weeks you’ll also see a bit of Video media from me also. So lets gets started, shall we?

Some of you may have already seen this; it’s the new Sonic the Hedgehog hoodie which is currently available to buy from entertainment retailer HMV. I think it looks pretty snazzy and I’m very tempted to get one, on one side you’ve got Sonics giant mug on there for all to stare at. But on the other side you’ve got his eyes, which oddly enough looks quite like the FastFeet Media logo minus the headphones.
Granted we made our logo from Sonics characteristics but this does look very similar! It’s probably just me, but anyways if you fancy a cool new hoodie this would be my choice

Yep it’s that magic time of year again, nope not Christmas – it’s Sonic the Hedgehogs birthday. It’s been 18 years since the original title was released on the Mega Drive. I’ve heard of a few events happening throughout today ranging from people eating cake that they’ve made for the special day over to Sega running some birthday compos too.
Today we’re celebrating by adding media that has a special significance to Sonic, so far we’ve added the 10th Anniversary album that was released in limited numbers. It is now available to listen to and download. That’s the first of our updates but there are more still to come today, so keep an eye out as there’s plenty more to come today!
