    It's been forever since I last watched these, I was worried these videos might nowadays be "unwatchable" since annotations are no more. I know it's probably been forever since you added the subs in place of annotations but yeah, thanks for that!

    Eggman: i hope the next game doesn't have this glitch
    Now in Sonic 3:

    About the "CURSE" blocks at 7:04, they're obviously not meant to spell that but the pattern's far from random. I only just noticed the top row is actually "C0 C1 C2" and the bottom is likely to just be "C4 C5 C6"... I'm still clueless as to why they're there though!

    There is a glitch you seemed to have missed:
    At the beginning of the Launch Base Zone, it is possible to sit in the first alarm with a spin dash and summon/destroy robot after robot. From the 13th robot on, you get 10,000 points per robot--meaning another life every 5 robots.
    When you hit 200+ lives, the counter starts looking rather strange.

    @MastaGambit I still think its Binary since I notice that Font anywhere it happens when ever you fuck with the game really bad in Debug mode or Game Genie cheats(certain ones).
    such as skrewing around too much can cause things like the Stage complete screen parts of it turning into moving Hex strings(repeatedly changing numbers) plus in Debug Mode that same Font replaces the Font in Score.

    • @ruthmcnally310
      @ruthmcnally310 9 років тому +1

      +everett1911 Hexadecimal is just binary in a more manageable form. Even if something is written in hexadecimal, it's very base will still be binary.
      Programs are mainly written in hexadecimal because it's a more compact translation. To give an example, 12 would be wrote in binary as '1100', whereas in hexadecimal, it would be 'C'. Of course, the hexadecimal is easier to remember, and shorter to type.
      The program converts the hexadecimal into binary, as that is the only language a computer can understand. (Sorry if that was a little long-winded)
