GP2X by EvilDragon OC's to 280-300MHz
Duh, do game question threads go in general? Help seems to be Hardware... move if it's in the wrong spot.
I love Payback but my 10yo does better at it because, for some reason, the HDR doesn't bother her as much. I love HDR (High Dynamic Range lighting) usually, and this is the first game where I haven't. I can't see in the alleyways even after I've been walking in them. I'm not quite sure how my oldest kid handles it.
Is there a file I can alter to adjust this?
Edit:
Payback Shows what the GP2X Can Do
Payback, for those of you dumb enough to have not already purchased it, shows what the GP2X can really do in the hands of someone who has lots of experience, 2 to 3 generations of the same game to work from, and gets woodies making complicated code and effects, like John Carmack. Anyone remember Optimus's ZeEngineGP2X preview?
I was playing this morning and it started to rain. I thought "Oh, yay! Rain that isn't flat animation - it moves and pans when I do. It's really 3d rain."
Then I noticed that each droplet will hit a building rooftop and make 3 particles and disappear.
COLLISION DETECTION? Damn.
There are aspects of Payback that annoy me - it's HDR makes it dark, and your car swings wildly when you switch to reverse - you have to be careful to not turn the wheel until after you are moving a direction. But for the most part, it's a great game involving everything from gunning down members of the KKK, drug runs to prison breaks.
If you haven't spent $30+5 shipping on Payback, I say "SHAME ON YOU!", the amount of shame being proportionally equal to the amount of your "give a damn"
But my point remains - there is just nothing out there that can touch this game. If you love the GP2X for what it is, you should get the full game.
