My shelf of interesting items

i'm such a Sega nerd that after the second shelf my brain focus instantly shifted on Mega Drive spines on the right, then Saturn ones, then back on top for boxed MDII, Power Stick and the mighty Dreamcast swirl. Only then i went back on topic and focused Carmageddon goodies!<br/><br/>Lovely collecti...

i'm not a big fan of this effect either, is so subtle that many people doesn't even notice so it feels kind of a waste. I don't feel it adds anything artistic to the scene either. I'd rather a "dim edges" filter, that may fit Carmageddon for a grim aesthetic. (and can be turned off if disliked)<br/>...

improved AA is interesting but i can't see the point at sharpness and color filters, those doesn't add anything to what i can do from TV/Monitor settings. <br> If sharpness affected (moderately) only textures may have some sense, but instead applies all over the scene causing god-awful ringing aroun...
