I’ll answer for him: No, that would be crazy I wouldn’t, that would be crazy No, that would be crazy Could you consult with rauper and ask him as to what's so crazy about wanting to save the games journalism industry... One website at a time?

Hey Sega, how about relaunching the Dreamcast and saving blue skies one arcade conversion at a time

If I was Rauper, with hindsight over the last two years, I'd be thinking I got out at exactly the right time.

Yeah, I saw a tweet from someone working for IGN promoting freelance work for IGN and they were offering 20 dollars as a base rate for an article with no original content and 50 dollars for stories that aren't cut and pasted from Reddit.

Well, apparently YouTube are offering mucho money to the content creating star of tomorrow. www.eurogamer.net/youtube-and-ali-a-announce-a-new-competition-to-find-the-next-big-gaming-content-creatorSomehow I think IGN and Eurogamer need to up their game.

I'm always amazed at how many review sites get quoted on Metacritic for any game. The market must be beyond saturated.

Are you suggesting that everyone who bought a mini SNES isn't currently playing it every waking hour of the day?

If you want a re-released Dreamcast, maybe get a Dreamcast?

It won't play on a modern TV.
A Dreamcast Mini with Jet Set Radio, Skies of Arcadia, Shenmue I and II, Virtua Fighter 3, Sega Rally 2, Rez, Soul Calibur, Dead or Alive 2, Daytona USA 2001, Space Channel 5, and an HDMI output though?
🤌🏽

Isn’t there a Dreamcast HDMI cable? Came out a few years ago?

Is that where it's essentially a flash drive modded into a Dreamcast?

You replace the disk drive with a fpga board that has a sd card on it, no soldering it just clicks into the main board where the disk drive did.

And the rest as well: Powerstone, Ready 2 Rumble, all racing games etc. I could get a second-hand one and a cable, or mod it, but I want a nice shiny (well matte) new one, untainted with bodily fluids.

rauper ... Would you ever consider getting back into the gaming journalism industry again? How would you go about setting up a competitor to Eurogamer in today's media landscape? Better yet... Would you ever consider buying Eurogamer back as a sole IP property, and have ownership of the site again? Now that I've taken a couple of years off and been away from it all it's interesting to look at the games media from the outside and from a more objective perspective. I ran Gamer Network for 18 years (starting at the age of 16) so it was definitely time for a change for me personally... I am now thinking about what's next but I'm much more interested in doing something new than going back over old ground at this point!

You can just say "EG is a bit wank since I left". Which is why I'm suggesting that rauper should come back in order to save his baby. Eurogamer has been awful since the sell-off.

Are you his fucking mum or something? Calm down. Wow... I don't think my tone was not nearly as harsh as yours. And there are people saying that I should calm down. My comment was merely tongue in cheek. Your comment was downright offensive.

I notice you didn't answer the question, though. Hello, Momma Rauper! And welcome to the other side of the track, Raups.

"Something new"
Reading between the lines its clear Rauper has spotted the big gap in the online market.
Middle aged male erotica cam streams.
Do we email you audition tapes directly?
I've got some of the angles perfected others need a little work due to lighting challenges but I'm confident of being front page material on www.RaupersRandyRudes.Org
