Cool feature, but as the video player still completely freezes up several times when I start a video in Firefox, I'm going to keep downloading them for now.

There is only the dark theme. There is no white theme. Not to me at any rate, unless I wanted to burn my retinas.

I mean, as soon as he became a meme it was only natural that someone would poach him. Hollywood probably.

In all seriousness though, Drew has very much been part of the glue that has held Giant Bomb together for years. His wry wit, his personable enthusiasm for almost everything. Before Metal Gear Scanlon, I'd never understood Metal Gear at all, and alongside Drew I learnt the series lore. Other highlights include Mario Party (obviously), The Giant Bomb Flight Club, Extra Life, the hundreds of quick looks and Drew's North Korea debrief. He will be sorely missed from Giant Bomb, and I wish him all the best of success for the future.

P.S. I nearly forgot Lego Island on UPF...

Metal Gear Scanlon (still need to watch MGSV but I was waiting until I actually played MGSV myself), Mario Party Party, and also Dan and Patrick Klepek's epic Mario Maker feud. The trio of levels that Dan built to make Patrick play was a delight. Demo Derby has been great and long may it continue.

I can't fathom Dan Ryckert and that's kind of why I like him; despite his sometimes shocking lack of knowledge he constantly shows that he wants to learn and has enthusiasm to do so.

Giant Bomb this is all down to you. If we hadn't lead the Windjammers resurgence it might have been left to fade away.

Changing the world for the better one game at a time. :D

@reverendhunt: Lol, that's encouraging. Maybe I'll try PM'ing a staff member...

We currently don't have a platform page dedicated to the ZX Spectrum's predecessor, the ZX81. Whilst the ZX81 didn't have the same number of games as the Spectrum, it did nonetheless see a large number of releases, including the groudbreaking 3D Monster Maze, Flight Simulation and Black Crystal.

I believe that the ZX81 deserves a separate platform page from the ZX Spectrum, considering their differing specifications and differing game libraries. Can someone create one?

I can't remember if it was last week's or this week's Giant Bombcast where they were talking about upcoming releases, but I swear they joked about The Last Guardian getting delayed again.

As someone who works with UX and CX a fair bit I'd say the default font is slightly too small. Headings are fine but default in threads etc. is slightly squint-inducing.

Hats off to you seriously for continuing to do this. It's epic dedication. :)
