Some of you probably remember the 1991 classic Another World which was released on the Amiga system among others. I loved the game, it had fantastic animation and graphics for the time and it played just fine. Was pretty hard as well but I probably was not that good at playing games at that time. The game was using vector graphics and someone decided that it would be a nice idea to scale the vectors to offer a high res version of the game. You can see and download the results at the another world fanpage. Downloads are only available for pc but that should not be a problem for most. (with the amiga system being nearly dead and all)

Computers in Movies
I thought about writing on this topic for some time, I think it started with the movie Independence Day. You know, the movie where aliens invade the earth and destroy some major cities and the like. They defeat the aliens by uploading a computer virus to the alien mainframe which of course is compatible to the virus.
60 Optical Illusions
Yes i know, its not really related to my site but I thought that the new cool category needs some articles and you´d probably enjoy it nevertheless. Best to use on co-workers, friends aso. All illusions are explained in detail, telling you exactly what will happen when you look at them.
Ascii Movies
Never thought this would be possible but it seems it is. The following site offers movies scenes in ascii format. Movies include Lord of the Rings, Spiderman, the Matrix and lots more. Detail level is amazing and you can select font size as well ranging from 1 to 12. My 1024*768 was not big enough for the large numbers but the movies look great even in a small size like 2.
CSS Nudity
Well this concept has been new to me and it probably is for you as well. Everyone who feels offended by “normal” nudity should not click the following link. Everyone else should enjoy this fine piece of CSS art.
