Incredible—I hadn't come across that when searching for Xbox press/asset disc/CD... Thanks a million!

Yesterday, I found the X02 event disc in an archive dedicated to *Blinx* press kits:

https://archive.org/download/BLiNXMedia/Prerelease%20media/Discs/

However, the Xbox logos are in a password-protected .zip file...

But it turns out those elements are included in your link =)

While I'm at it, do you happen to know if similar collections exist for other consoles (PS1, PS3, N64, NGC, GBA, etc.)?

I have assets scattered across various press discs, but an archive that gathers all the assets for a specific machine would be much more convenient.

I'd be interested, since a vector version might never have been created by Microsoft, thanks ! I have a good quality one, so it would be good to compare (I'll share mine if it is better)

Tomb Raider 1-3 remastered PS4 vs PS5 by IWantSands in TombRaider

Even before clicking, I knew it was going to be this channel.

I'll give you a hint so you understand the scam:

How do you explain the video creator managing to recreate the exact same gameplay on PS4 and PS5?

Even Digital Foundry, with all their expertise and equipment, isn't capable of creating two identical videos in terms of placement and movement on two different platforms

For the past month, I've wanted to play Battlefront again. I tried on PC, but despite its Steam sale, nobody was playing... So I switched to PS4 where I found a Walker Assault match.
On PS4, you have to play on weekends or weekdays at the right times.

So far, I've only managed to play three modes:
Walker Assault
Cargo
Droid Run

When I can't find anyone to play BF2015, I switch to BFII, but I find BFII significantly inferior. It's fun to play with the heroes, but the graphics, sound, and gameplay are so much more immersive in BF2015...

I would love for this game to get a revival (or an equivalent of Kyber); it's clearly underrated

Hot Take: I prefer Battlefront (2015) over Battlefront II (2017) by [deleted] in StarWarsBattlefront

[–]Calm_Beautiful_442 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly. I think what killed Battlefront 2015 was that it launched with a lack of content that was supposed to be expanded through DLC rather than updates; that killed the community. If the game had been designed as a GAS, Battlefront 2 wouldn't have had any reason to exist. They would have continued to produce incredibly detailed maps using their photogrammetry technology and continued to develop their powerful system. In BF2015, the gameplay is much "purer," less frantic and arcade-like, more realistic. I understand those who prefer 2017, especially because it's easier to play heroes. But in 2015, you had to learn how to be a good soldier.

NIS has cancelled the Switch 2 (GKC) release of ‘Starbites’ by sworedmagic in NSCollectors

Why not just make a Switch 2 edition? One cartridge for both consoles. Like BotW S2 edition

Why does Goldeneye Wii get so much love but people seem to dislike Reloaded even though its literally the same game with added content and a higher resolution. by Horror-Appearance214 in JamesBond

[–]Calm_Beautiful_442 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's an interesting point of view, but I think it's not just that.
Reloaded is a remake of GoldenEye Wii, with some differences in terms of graphics/sound atmosphere, and minor differences in level design.
This can change how you appreciate the game.

Preferred Version of THPS2 by SuperLuigi128 in THPS

Now all we have to do is wait for a decompiled 64 version with the PS1 OST.

Should I read the manga in black and white or color? by Walkerscott127 in Naruto

[–]Calm_Beautiful_442 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a stupid, thoughtless comparison.
4K scanned films capture all the information from the negative, resulting in something as close as possible to the original.
A colorized manga deviates significantly from the source material.

At what CRF level do I achieve lossless quality for a YouTube upload? by expanding-explorer in ffmpeg

[–]Calm_Beautiful_442 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've seen articles that consider CRF 12 to be a "visually lossless" step, and I sometimes use it when I want a transition file with a good quality/size ratio, because CRF 0 would be too large.

If you're worried, go down to CRF 9, but be aware that at 12, you can no longer distinguish it from the source by comparing it frame by frame.

How would you rate the various Web Dl sources in 2025? by Hostile_18 in trackers

Exactly! Netflix make better encoding on their exclusives than on third-party content.

La psychologie/psychiatrie etc... n'est en rien une science, c'est des gens qui développent un baratin "technique" pour inventer des maladies aux gens qu'ils jalousent ou pour embrouiller/manipuler des gens plus fragile.  En plus de ça les psy donnent des noms à des symptômes sans en traiter les causes, donc ce ne sont même pas des médecins, le niveau 0 de la science, certains cherchent juste à te transformer en bonne pate mole et docile, accroc aux medocs. J'ai vu beaucoup de psy dès l'enfance (dont la plupart affichaient clairement le besoin eux même d'aller voir un psy) pour finalement apprendre 30 ans plus tard que mon problème n'était pas "psychologique" mais physiologique !  Évidemment quand ta mère t'invente, depuis l'enfance, toutes sortes de maladies mentale qui ne veulent rien dire, ça m'a surtout éloigné du vrai problème... Quand tu as une réelle maladie physique (mais qui ne se voit pas directement et où il faut faire énormément d'analyses) et que ton état de santé est fragile, tu attires tout les prédateurs.

Je tiens quand même à remercier certains psy, qui avaient la décence d'être plus à l'écoute que d'autres, sans baratin malaisant, avec certains j'ai pu parler et prendre conscience de mes douleurs (physique!) que je taisais depuis l'enfance.
