My mate got to be on the show, lucky git

Kid looked just like pat sharp

Yep. I'm moving this month and not renewing.

I can't stand listening to them. 99% of people doing these videos, any videos, on YouTube have no concept or idea of how to actually talk properly to an audience. I don't want to have to skip through someone fucking mumbling in an indecipherable accent to find what I need.

Give me written instructions/guides. It's faster, I can re-read easily at my own pace (fast!) and I don't get annoyed by someone's nasally voice. Yes I'm an older one too.

I'm the biggest Xenoblade geek around - what the fuck at your later part (not at you). If you mean Future Redeemed,, that is absolutely 100% tying up the entire trilogy (and also tying in Gears/Saga/X as much as Takahashi could do), and yes - there are multiple monados (A's, Alpha's). Shulks is a replica, but the other two are literally split from Ontos' original. Matthew's gauntlets are also arguably a Monado too, powered by the Pneuma core, and I would also argue that N's sword of the end is also a Monado, based on the Logos core.

I had enough with the Xenoblade community back when XB3 launched and the usual culprits who also run the wiki absolutely laughed anyone out of the room who suggested those statues in the city were of Shulk and Rex. I mean, the descriptions and look made it obvious to anyone with a brain (and FR proved yes, it was them) - but no, these things have to be spelled out in black and white and made 100% obvious apparently otherwise it can't be true. It's sad, frustrating, and goes against the entire philosophy of the series.

I was shown it by a mate, along with soulseek, in like, 2006 or so when in sixth form. It was way better than what I was using at the time (IE)

At least that's what I remember, pretty sure that was the date. I remember soulseek was before by a bit actually as we used it for trading At the Drive In and Mars Volta tracks

I've carried on using it because of plugins, adblocks, privacy, etc.

No - this is image retention, not burn in. Can happen with flashing objects such as the map in F Zero Advance if you emulate it on a display without adaptive blur.

It will fade in time.

Loading games from big floppy disks, hearing the CLINK CLUNK CLUNK WRRRRR noises, on the BBC Micro computers at school in the early 90s. There were boxes of awesome games like Chuckie egg that we had to work out how to load during lunch breaks.

Then getting our first home computer with win 3.11 which was a huge deal then

F Zero X remake please. original was already 60fps, so upgraded graphics and the original soundtrack in full stereo and full 30 player online. Sounds good to me.

Local co op games never left, as long as you have a Nintendo console or a pc to emulate up to and including Switch.
