karma's a karma
I'm sorry, what was that about the benefits of using a public ledger in blockchain technology, again?
crypto bros disintegrating
What ? But they told me these are unhackable, good thing they can get it stopped by the authorities they told me that cant intervene
After every video I scroll down to look at your sub number to see if it's inched any closer to 1 million and I'm honestly coming to hate the number 987.
Welcome to 4 minute 27 second gaming news! They show that may or man not be 4 minutes and 27 seconds long.
That sword looks like crap, just saying…
5 minute gaming news got me back into your channel! Keep it up dude
first, were they hacked or did someone just take it? second as long as it's a good game I can wait another year. third I wonder witch Amy their going to use when she pop's up, the sonic X in the hoop skirt or the classic late 80's early 90's looking one.
lastly you might hit that sub mark faster if you went back to game plays.
1:07 is some weapons grade copium
$600 million scam? Ahh didn't know Star Citizen was in the news
I just can't feel bad about anything regarding NFTs when it goes poorly.
I don't know about anyone else, but I find it hilarious to take the "sacrosanct continuity" of the SONIC UNIVERSE so seriously, lol. "Oh man, they better respect and accurately portray the deep and complex story beats of Sonic 2 or else".
Man I really want to play Botw2 😐
At least this delay on Zelda will open up more time for me to spend on other games, especially when quite the few games I'm looking forward to are releasing this year.
I love how the show is 5m news and its always 4 or even 3 and something sometimes xD
Still, loving the idea and its actually useful and a brief way to get my news. Keep up the good job Jesse <3
Ideally I would at some point want a sonic movie where egg man calls shadow the hedgehog a bitch ass motherfucker.
If 600M ain't no biggie, I'll take it.
I got recommended Axie infinity at work, and had a look at it, but got cold feet at the idea of paying to play. Maybe it was for the best…
Awww man, it's sad they need more time for BOTW2 but honestly saw it coming, we know it's gonna be amazing and I'm so ready to wait a bit longer. It feels crazy that since switch released we've had just one new zelda game though(as amazing as botw is) … Hopefully we will get fully fledged dungeons this time around – I miss those!
Nintendo: yall Elden Ring was way crazier than anyone could have guessed. We're gonna need another summer for our boy
As someone who knows all too well how crypto-currencies work, I can assure you the term "hacked" is grossly misused here. It's easier to hack into the federal reserve bank than it is to hack a crypto-currency network. No, what happened here is that the game's developers weren't storing the currency on a dedicated server, they had it in an exchange. This makes it all too easy for the exchange account to get their credentials stolen or to piggyback a login cookie among many other ways of getting into their account and then transferring the entire value of the portfolio to another wallet or exchange where it is then laundered in whatever way they choose.
What does this mean? Eh… could've been an inside job and they are playing victim for their own theft just as easily as it could've been spyware on their server because frankly these games do NOT have anywhere near the level of security needed for being crypto funded. Banks still occasionally get hacked, and that's the minimum level of security these crypto-games need by default. Instead they are being ran by code-kiddies that have about as much knowledge of online security as Donald Trump.
Gonna have to mutumbo nintendo fans with that. Sure, let's end our biggest franchise.
I've never seen someone's sub counts stay the same for so long. It honestly feels like some conspiracy against Jesse. Constantly putting out good content, being transparent, and a good variety. It's badgering that you're not above 1 million subs yet. Let's make it happen!
