Happy October!

This is a weird one: The crew who did the awesome Battle Wheels then started writing an FPS game on the same engine. It is odd because it’s a mission based game that takes place in a wide open field. I never quite got into this one. This is a very late release by Songbird. #atarilynx

I actually like a little motion smoothing on a large HD screen. It has a lot of chop otherwise because it doesn’t fade nicely like a CRT. I find I can track things happening a lot more easily and the association with cheap video goes away after I’m immersed in the movie.

…yes

Screamer, you say?

Are we SURE that the sweat and tears devs spend dealing with purposely opaque DRM systems actually saves money? Like.. there’s a serious development cost to futzing with this crap.
