SEGA Un-Confidential: A Past Look to the Future with 32X, Sonic & Knuckles, Power Rangers, & More

First of all, I haven’t forgotten about this. That’s more of a “crack my knuckles, pop my neck, sit down for a while” thing, while this is just some quick fun. That said, I came across this interesting video on YouTube, a promotional video which was apparently a free rental at Blockbuster Video back in […]
