the main issue is when you blow the image up, the details in the highlights and shadows don't hold up, you need to study Chroma subsampling to understand this. Sensor size is still important, but they're getting closer

swords and sandal style, I loved he-man and remember how epic the sound and visuals were on the cartoon, the homo-eroticism was just the atmosphere

Uber really did a lot of damage to the NYC's energy and personality, i won't miss them when they're gone. Both the delivery app and terrible ride share. The chinatown car services are still close to half the price of uber for those that don't know.

I remember when this game came out, there was nothing that felt like it, but Shadow Warriors was pretty cool. Doom was special just because it felt right and the rhythm just flowed as you went deeper.
