That's one monster of a CRT! how big is that? 32 inches? The metal thing it's on looks great.Yeah not sure I'd sit the BVM on that red one above. The unit I had the 3 CRTs sitting on I can't find on the Ikea site now. :rolleyes:
@o1s1n: Whatever you go for it will most likely have to sit out from the wall a bit as it won't be deep enough to sit the monitor fully on it - the back will hang out if you get me.
Oh yeah I remember seeing photos of that, that's kind of what I was thinking of height wise. It's a low enough profile so it minimizes the size of the monitors somewhat.
The arse on the thing is massive alright isn't it?
They tend to put all the video cards in behind the neckboard on those monitors, so they end up with an even more extended back than a regular CRT. 0 -

Yeah I see what you mean, that said, a lick of paint works wonders...0 -
Actually here's an old picture of the unit I have - sturdy as feck and can fit loads of consoles in it - no annoying back panels on it either.
Jelous of that Trinitron on the end there! That an KV-LS30? Been trying to find one of those in the wild for a while now...always the widescreen ones knocking around and never the 4:3. Sweet setup!0 -

Really looking forward to Racing Apex coming out. It looks like Virtua Racing on steroids with better FPS, visuals, vehicle damage and a combat mode. And hopefully better handling also. They absolutely nailed the low polygon aesthetic imo.

Yep, KV-21LS30B. Great little TV she is, colours just pop.Visually looks amazing. That cornering though
Gorgeous looking but it needs a better sense of speed when you're doing 400 kph!

There was a game very similar to this called 90's Arcade Racer that supposed to come out a few years ago but has never seen the light of day. I think Sega's Lawyers probably came knocking.0 -

I'd say that's easily solved by switching to the bonnet cam or inside view. The Chase cam is very far back and the road looks very wide angled impacting the sense of speed.
I hope there's an option to disable the car rotation when in chase cam as I'm not a fan of it.0 -

I remember Auto Modellista many moons ago on the PS2, looked absolutely incredible, cel shaded and moved beautifully, all was perfect right up to the point you tried to play it, turned out they forgot that bit.
Still, looked great

The thing I find most annoying about it is the lack of online functionality for those of us living in Europe. Japan and US versions had it, and the Xbox port had it, but they never released it here.I remember Auto Modellista many moons ago on the PS2, looked absolutely incredible, cel shaded and moved beautifully, all was perfect right up to the point you tried to play it, turned out they forgot that bit.
