    Hey, just wanted to let you know if you're looking for another topic to cover, Former head writer of the Archie Sonic comics from 1993-2006 Ken Penders is planning on rereleasing some old Archie Sonic comics and it's without a doubt behind Sega's back. I'll let you look into it yourself so I don't word spam this comment. Be warned: the Ken Penders rabbit hole is insane, there's stuff that he wanted in there that would get the comic moved to the back of the store if you catch my drift, you'll know about the warzone known as his Twitter, and you *will* learn copyright law.

    • @metazoxan2
      @metazoxan2 2 месяца назад

      The thing is at this point I think most people know that already. Most Crypto bros ... are just fellow scammers trying to rug pull one another.
      That's why they ignore the red flags. Because the fact it's a scam doesn't matter to them at all, as long as they can find the timing to pull out before the rug pull, they make out like bandits.
      The ones that get angry are those that failed to read the timing and were on the losing end.
      Sure there is probably some percentage legit tricked, but most were just in it to steal some of the money for themselves before the house collapsed.

    • @zenvariety9383
      @zenvariety9383 2 месяца назад

      When it comes to crypto one must be cautious. Earning crypto through faucets and mining and purchasing crypto through exchanges only if it can be staked on the trusted exchange is usually how I do it. Yet I think earning crypto is the safest way to obtain crypto. Yet investing in traditional stocks is good as well.

    • @Zerovin
      @Zerovin 2 месяца назад +1

      The issue is that it really shouldn’t have had those bugs and glitches in the first place, it was a remaster of the original colours not a remake or anything. And it’s technically not even the “ultimate” version either as there is no mention of anything from the handheld version of the games

But I thought it was really well made, maybe not marketed very well but as a first sonic colors experience I’d say it was solid, I’m not saying it’s the best sonic game out there (that goes to sonic mania) but it was pretty cool. The reach for the stars remix was fire though. I feel like we could overlook the bugs since they aren’t in the game anymore just like we did after the final horizon released to take the attention away from the bad final boss of sonic frontiers
