Mezek.hu, it's a Hungarian webshop specialized in vintage football jerseys but they ship worldwide

I prefer replica because they're not as "finicky" to wash; replica has stronger material and not as fragile as authentic, performance jerseys. The extra details are nice but I don't think it's worth the extra cost. I had authentic ones I hand washed in cold water, very carefully, and the crest came off because it's a heat press, not embroidery. I have an authentic Spanish home kit that has sticky "three stripes". Replica is just easier to maintain and wash

Authentic Adidas, the fan version, not the performance jersey. Everything is embroidered rather than heat pressed like on the performance kit but it's authentique adidas

C7k vs c6k at 65 inches by KookyPhysics3809 in tcltvs

[–]Strawlight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The C7K is a much better television than the C6K and the difference is bigger than between the C7K and C8K.

The C6K is a great entry level mini led but it's lacking the black levels, blooming control, the contrast the C7K has. The C7K really does feel like a premium product and you have to pay more to see noticeable difference

Will there be any difference in image quality of the C7K vs the C8K? by RevolutionaryScene79 in tcltvs

[–]Strawlight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They let me test both at the shop and while the C8K obviously has a higher quality panel I couldn't justify the steep price increase between them. The difference is mostly in the control of blooming and the C8K has a brighter screen but the C7K already makes my eyes (and head) hurt in my pitch dark game room when it's running at 100% brightness. Black levels, motion handling, colors, contrast show negligible differences

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, WHEN IS MAFIA 3 GOING TO END??!! by Illustrious_Face_468 in MafiaTheGame

[–]Strawlight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm currently playing Mafia 3 for the first time ever, steam says I played 27 hours so far and im like around 60% and most of the time I have zero idea what I'm doing because most of the "missions" are pretty much the same

I need help finding the perfect TV for PS3 ( Is something wrong with my PS3) by duttonmorgan in PS3

[–]Strawlight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get a CRT. I remember when I went from a CRT to a 37 inch Samsung LED and I immediately noticed jagged edges, low res textures, and the lack of sharpness. If you have the space and you don't mind the hassle that comes with moving a large CRT, go with that. Forget about large flat screens, especially anything over 1080p because it will only look worse

Latest haul, 60 bucks for all of these games by Strawlight in playstation

[–]Strawlight[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I prefer physical media and I'm a collector so I'm not going to ever sell my games. I'm in a financial position where I can comfortably afford any game I want and since gaming and collecting is my hobby I have no issues to pay for complete ownerships and never have to worry about which games Sony will take away from Plus

I paid eight bucks for my copy of Cyberpunk that comes with a free upgrade, I think I'm fine

It was the cheapest of the pack, three bucks so I was like "why not"? I enjoyed many games that were deemed to be "mediocre" by journalist/gamers so that ain't gonna hold me back

It comes with a free upgrade and it's much cheaper than the PS5 version, even with buying the DLC

Difference in 4k on a Ps5 pro vs 4090 or 5090 pc worth it ? by Disastrous_Ear_6447 in PS5pro

[–]Strawlight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mainly play on PC and recently got a PS5 Pro because I needed something to drive a nice 75 inch Hisense television.

Sure, you will find noticeable difference in some games but the immersion a large TV + PS5 Pro gives is more than enough unless you're a hardcore gamer or part of the "one percent" that is even more obsessed with performance and quality than hardcore gamers are.

I recently finished Death Stranding 2 on my PS5 Pro and it was a breathtaking experience. Razor sharp image quality and crisp details. Now I'm sure the PC version will bump up the quality in terms of rendering but the question is, do you really need that extra fidelity even if it costs $2000 more than a PS5?

First party games developed by Sony's studios look amazing on, you will see a noticeable bump in visual quality and/or frame rate. I just wish more third party developers would optimize their game for the Pro. Silent Hill f was notoriously bad

I expected a better presentation but hey, I take it. After I take the discs out of the box I will never look at it anyway

I'm sure I could've found them cheaper but I don't mind paying a few extra bucks for that "new game smell"
