CRT look and feel on a LCD

<< < (15/21) > >>

RandyT:

I don't care what anyone says.  I used to really get ticked at those printed representations of games on the backs of the Activision boxes.  When I was shopping for a game, I wanted to see what it was really going to look like, not an "artist's rendition".  The actual games always looked better than that on the screen.  A lot of companies knew this, and showed photos.  But for some reason, Activision never did and it was always a crapshoot as to what you would see when you got it home.  At least that's how I recall it today.....

Little Cheffo...ok I tried.

First of all Hoopz, the problem is we have the M.O.B. so the poll is obviously tilted.   We have a religion, and there is no getting away from it.

Cheffo,

Stale.  :laugh2:  The problem is that you cannot even refute anything I have said.  You are a walking talking vs of an empty head.    You run around claiming your victory when you haven't even tackled my points.

But hey, I got a challenge...name one..name ten, and as usual I will shoot you down completely.   Don't just say it...give examples.

But here is one for starters.  The only thing you THINK you got me on was refresh rates, and I told you how it was done.   Answer...you ignored it like the coward you are from the first time I called it.

Still...lets keep going.   This is going to be fun.   You learned who Jack is yet..or are you going give me those fantastical consequences.    :laugh2:


Malenko,

I am going to help you ok.  ANTENNA INPUT Einstein.   What you have pictured doesn't have a switch box does it.  BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzz  wrong again.     Go back and READ.   

Ooooh you got me there.    GEE I DIDN'T know the screws were on the TV??? UH HUH  WOW.   We sure got some kind of people around here.  First Hoopz comes up with his nice explanation to me on the character in a Few Good Men(gotta love that one) then you with your nice bald correction and misquote...now this.   Cheffo being a clown all the way around who came up with the brilliant comeback to begin with.

You guys gotta stop throwing these softballs.   You might cause me to laugh to death.

You know, genesim, attention always feels better when it's given by those who actually care about you.....

Namco:
They were called 75-300 ohm matching transformers. If you had rabbit ears with the "forks" on them and a newer TV, you needed one to push it onto the coaxial input of your TV. The crappy video game switches (and commodore 64 switch) had the "forks" on them usually. I used to end up with a drawer full of these things.



Apparently Genesim had gold-plated connectors or HDMI back then, because I remember looking at a blurry-ass screen as a kid playing C64 and Odyssey 2 games.  ;D
