Xtlm 10/10/23 4:29:14 PM #7:	Some effects were built with CRT's in mind and literally don't look correct on anything but! I kind of want to get a small one for my retro setup, right now I am using an old LCD monitor with Frankenstein wiring to get it all working properly lol Edit - Oh, I do have the one from my youth as well.....it's really old, older then me.

WazzupGenius00 10/10/23 4:47:09 PM #8:	The first one is Mobi-chan, a chibi version of the player character in Hyper Dyne Side Arms. It occasionally appeared in other games, like its a 1up in Mighty Final Fight for example. The third one is a Yashichi, which began as an enemy in Vulgus but was frequently reused in other games as a powerup, often a hidden secret one. Not sure on the second thing, maybe a chibi version of the player 2 character from Side Arms? Looks kinda similar. --- http://i.imgur.com/k0v0z3q.gif <cite>WazzupGenius00 posted [p:976584014] in Things mod...

ChichiriMuyo 10/10/23 4:51:28 PM #9:	There are also games that play differently. LCDs have more lag, so if you're a big fan of old rhythm games you need a CRT for accurate gameplay. Also, I believe new TVs also can't ply old lightgun games. --- Existence. Existence is but shallow question with no answer.

Xiahou_Shake 10/10/23 6:55:54 PM #11:	ChichiriMuyo posted... Also, I believe new TVs also can't ply old lightgun games. This was the case for a long time but has been solved by Sinden. There's merit to CRTs in that they're truly lagless and pixel art/sprites straight up not translating to modern displays well at all, but both of those advantages are vanishing between really good filters being developed and input lag creeping down below human perceptibility on better TVs these days. (Monitors have been there for quite some time.) --- Let the voice of love take you higher, With this gathering power, go beyond even time! <cite>Xiahou_Shake posted [p:976586132] in Things mod...

ChichiriMuyo 10/11/23 1:28:19 AM #16:	Yeah, that's why I mentioned rhythm games. If you don't play them or only play them casually you could understandably fail to understand how much lag matters at higher levels. Whether its DDR or Guitar Hero, if you can get really high grades at the highest levels, any amount of lag is going to throw your scores off. --- Existence.

Xiahou_Shake 10/11/23 3:10:04 AM #17:	Realistically you're more likely to get a noticeable amount of input lag from the actual hardware you're using to play the game than from a display these days as long as you're shopping with that in mind. PS5 is especially rough in that department, fighting games immediately feel notably different/more sluggish on that than they do on PC with an appropriate monitor. --- Let the voice of love take you higher, With this gathering power, go beyond even time! <cite>Xiahou_Shake posted [p:976592638] in Things mod...
