This is a link post Oscilloscope demo
Like an old school graphics demo from the Amiga days, only on an oscilloscope.

That gets a click from me. I used an oscilloscope at college and i never quite 'got' how they worked, i always had to ask someone to do it for me.

This is a normal post back in the day
when games developers used to get as much out of the hardware as possible, rather than just buying the latest and greatest hardware and using loads of pre-written high level code to save time.

*clicks*

I love Amigas.

This is a normal post that point of view is only really valid for the likes of id and Crytek
who get to request new hardware features from NVIDA and ATI.

What about games console programmers? The graphics cards in the XBOX 360 and PS3 are already generations behind those in top of the range PCs. On consoles, graphics programmers have to work very hard to keep their games looking better and better as the hardware they have to work with gets more and more out of date.

This is a normal post I've played the biggest video game in the world
Asteroids uses a very similar technique to the oscilloscope to produce the visuals. My mate hooked up a version of Mame to his Laser once and I played Asteroids 300ft wide whilst completely off my face.
