I know i did one of these before but nobody replied. So what is everyones views on emulation. I personally do not like the think apart from emulating the past games on the snes which i can't buy. Another thing that is very good and fun is arcade emulation of my old favourites like pacman Super mario space invaders and more. I disagree with modern day emulation of things like N64 which are still making money on the market. People are becoming obsessed now adays with downloading these rather small files of the internet and breaking the law by keeping them and selling them. Developers are never going to stop emulation because it is not illegal to make if you own it. So these people post them onto there site and people download. This could be a rather large loss for the componys.

What do yu think??

I have also lived through the "Tony Experience". He enjoys taking the mickey out of name and what I am.
What I would do, is ignore him, or take the mickey out of him or annoy him back!!!

I don't know why Sniper is so...touchy all the time. Perhaps he just has a short temper. I try to keep cheery and muck around a bit. I only get annoyed when people are really biased. READ THE WWF FORUM FOR EXAMPLES OF MY ANNOYANCE!!

Anyway, I still like you. And I like Sniper-he just needs to lighten up a bit.

He has been a bit annoyed. I think he has done it around twice in the last couple of days. You have been away for a while. And Tony has been being horrible to me. Only yu can help me!

Errrr..I thought you got around 50 replies to your old one. Be ready for Sniper to have a go at you!!

Sniper's away tonight though. He's been a little moody lately, have you noticed??
