"How's it going, everybody? My name is Josh, and welcome (back) to..."

- Josh's Intro

Josh, better known online as JoshPlus (formerly known as JoshuaZ64), is an Australian YouTuber. He mainly uploads playthroughs of various video games with his commentary over them, constantly engaging with the viewer by conversing with them directly. His upbeat tone, intriguing stories, outlandish hypothetical questions, style of gameplay, and many laughs he's had over the years have made him out to be a fun-loving Aussie goof.

History
Before JoshPlus, Josh had another channel called "JoshuaZ64", which served as his original let's play channel. After feeling dissatisfied with the content he was making and the overall state of the channel, he deleted all of his videos and started over by creating different content. Alongside his own musical recreations and shitposts, he also uploaded 30 minute extensions of the Sonic Mania Repainted soundtrack which caught the attention of many since, as of right now, JoshuaZ64 is one of the only places to have the entire Sonic Mania Repainted's soundtrack archived.

In 2018, Josh created a new channel under the name "JoshPlus" and began uploading a playthrough of his mostly blind reactions to Sonic the Hedgehog (2006). During this period, he simultaneously would still upload music and short videos to JoshuaZ64 before halting uploads entirely in late 2019. He has not discussed the state of his old channel nor posted on it since 2019. Because of this, the channel is deemed inactive.

Personality
Josh is an upbeat and relaxed guy who loves to have fun while playing video games. He is always up for a good laugh, whether it be over a joke or something equally as ridiculous, and wants to bring happiness and laughter to anyone who watches his content.

He plays games in a calm manner, conversing directly with the viewer most of the time about whatever conversation topics he can think of. He will often bring up past events or outlandish hypothetical questions that he wishes to hear answers to, even if it is completely unrelated to the game he is playing. At the sight of an extremely tedious section when playing a game, particularly in Donkey Kong Country 2 and ToyStory3.exe, he starts to become more aggressive towards the challenge, usually whilst ranting about how difficult or pointless its inclusion is. Whenever he overcomes a challenge, Josh jokingly exaggerates his ability to play games correctly, claiming to be the "champion" or "master" at whatever he is playing. When events work out in his favour, he will sometimes shout "rectum," a play on the words "wrecked them," as if to claim victory.
