Duke Nukem 3D. I had a 486 SX 25 Mhz processor, but upgraded to the DX 100 Mhz processor. Can’t remember if that helped and I just needed a Pentium to run it properly, but I think it worked.
Taking the lane isn’t intentionally blocking cars, but forcing them to pass safely. By moving as close to the curb as possible you’re encouraging cars to pass when it isn’t safe, especially since the area of the road near the curb is the roughest and may require some manoeuvring around.
This car straight up went right behind the bike and hit them, probably frustrated at not being able to get around easily.
Those first person shooters can definitely give you motion sickness because the edges of the screen and the movement you’re seeing don’t necessarily match up. Most of these shooters are set up with a pretty low Field of View (FoV) which works well for a TV places a good distance away. For a computer monitor in front of you, I like to go with a FoV of at least 100.
I’m guessing with the smaller screen size and with how you’re holding the screen, the FoV is matching up better with your normal perception of the world.
You could probably play around with the FoV on your computer and not get sick as well. Not all games have an FoV slider though. Usually you have to edit an .ini file or use another program to adjust the FoV for you. I’ve been using FlawlessWidescreen to adjust the FoV for Mass Effect as I couldn’t stand the default setting.
I’ve missed these!
2022 - only 1 in 5 executive leaders agree with that statement. Seems to go against the trend to me.
