Games as a Podcast
We are two SEGA alums who love talking about the past, present and future of games and the industry that makes them. Each week we explore a gaming topic, often mixing in our perspectives from our time at Big Blue and beyond. Some weeks we’ll have a guest, usually someone whose career has crossed ours, and talk about their own experiences and perspectives.

SEGA as a Pioneer of Online Gaming
Afsal Kuner’s career has traced the evolution of online gaming. He helped shape the early days of SEGA’s online presence, navigated bold experiments like Nokia’s N-Gage, and brought his technical and leadership skills to PlayStation. In this conversation, we explore the birth of networked play, the unexpected breadth of licensed titles on N-Gage, and what it means to be too early with technology. Afsal also shares stories about the quirkiest peripherals, and insights into the battle between DENA and GREE for early mobile market dominance.
