Same opinion and question from me!

Seriously, all those video and audio options are like "WTF!" for me. It's just über-geeking pushed too far. I couldn't even guess what means "anti-aliasing" if my life was at stake with it.

So don't forget to include a few lines about them in the manual (you can call the chapter "Computer games 101" if you want! )

Well I can't tell which 1 is which, but personally I like the 1 on the left better. The 1 on the right looks as though it has too much gamma or contrast turned up as compared to the 1 on the left, and the background textures are not as defined.

I have a request, could you please put in better explanations as to what each option is when we mouse over them. Because some are just not too clear (actully most are not.)

Having poor eyesight in real life, and after having looked at these two images, I must concur that I find the "regular" lighting to be more to my liking. The reason is simple, the contrast is much better with the "regular" light when compared to to the "advanced/soft" light. This is something I find very important in games, for obvious reasons, as it's one of the things which define whetever or not I have to spend several minutes squinting my eyes to make out certain things, or whetever I can just take a look at it and then move on. Blurriness and washed-out colors makes me sad in pants. D:
