Tetris for Sega Mega Drive on Sale for $1 Million

From: http://gear.ign.com/

Like new and signed by the game's creator.

If the $8 million price tag for the T-Rex iPad was a little too rich for your blood, then maybe you would prefer to place a bid on eBay for a $1 million copy of Tetris for the Sega Mega Drive, better known stateside as the Sega Genesis.

What makes this particular "like new" copy so valuable is its rarity – only a handful are known to be in existence – and the fact that it's signed by the game's creator, Alekséi Pázhitnov.

If six zeroes are more than you can handle, feel free to throw in an offer and hope for the best.

SEGA Office Prank: Sonic the Hedgehog Desk Space

When Sega drone Aaron went out of town for a few weeks, his coworkers decided to prank him hard. Except "prank" at Sega apparently means "do him the awesome favor of turning his desk into a Sonic dreamworld." Amazing.

New HD Sega Outrun Arcade Sumo-Stomps The Original

By The Auto Insider

Outrun, Sega's original arcade racer, is back, but not in its old pixelated, quarter-poppin' form. Instead, it's back with a vengeance featuring stylish, new game play and killer HD visuals.

Sega has polished up an old arcade favorite and is re-releasing it for the XBOX Live Arcade and the Euro-only Playstation Network in June.

The updated Outrun will feature 15 new U.S.-based tracks to race on; 10 new Ferraris, including the Enzo, F50 and Dino; 5 different play modes, including 'Outrun Mode', 'Heart Attack Mode', 'Time Attack Mode' and 'Outrun Mode 15 Continuous Course' and 'Multiplayer Mode', all while playing in gorgeous HD. According to the game, if you impress your girlfriend enough in 'Heart Attack Mode' you will receive special requests. We're not quite sure that means, but knowing our girlfriend, it don't mean squat. [via Sega]
