For today's #ScanlineSunday I wanted to show you the importance of scan lines, and how the amazing artists of the era used to take CRT limitations into account when creating the graphics that mesmerised us.

Top: CRT.
Bottom: screenshot from an emulator.

Same game. Stormlord on #AtariST

A side‑by‑side comparison of the same fairy sprite from Stormlord on the Atari ST. The top half shows the fairy glowing on a CRT display, where the phosphor dots and scan lines blend the orange, red, and yellow pixels into a warm, shimmering figure with soft highlights of blue and white. The subtle blur and color bleed give her hair a fiery, fluid motion and the whole image a magical, luminous depth. The bottom half shows the same sprite in a modern emulator: crisp, flat pixels with hard edges and uniform tones. Without the CRT’s analog glow, the fairy looks more rigid and less ethereal, losing the radiant warmth that the vintage screen naturally added.

It’s not too late for #scanlinesunday, is it?

I think Tiny Toons: Buster Busts Loose is one of the best looking games of all time and it looks amazing even on my cheap, tiny 30 year old tv.

After judging so many titles, this #ScanlineSunday we're sharing the very best. This game was initially introduced with the 6 Button Controller which would become standard for most Sega models released afterwards

The #1 fighting game for Sega Genesis is Street Fighter II': Special Champion Edition

Hey #ScanlineSunday, here’s a demo effect I did on the Atari 2600 about 15 years ago.

There is a second effect but I need to fix the tv timing because it rolls on this display.

Just one screenshot in different sizes for #ScanlineSunday - Mario Kart 64 with console-wide AND game-specific deblur enabled, with RT6X PVM20L5 emulated scanlines.

One day I'll figure out how to not have Bluesky utterly crush the quality...but today is not that day.

My internet was down for three hours so I'm really late for #ScanlineSunday, but here's Tony Hawk 3 on PS2! THPS 1 & 2 were already great but 3 launched the franchise to new heights for the 6th Generation. #gaming #videogames #retro #playstation2 #ps2 #tonyhawk #skateboarding

The logo for "Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3" at the end of the intro sequence. I tried to time it so it would be clear but it ended up blurry anyway because of how quickly the scene transitioned. The intro showcases each skater available in the game, set to the immortal song "Ace of Spades" by Motorhead. When the Pro Skater series made its big leap for 6th Generation, it fortunately brought along its impeccable taste in incredible licensed music.The "Free Skate" menu in the PlayStation 2 version of "Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3." Free Skate allows the player to select any unlocked level and simply skate around to their heart's content, without worrying about objectives or a time limit. The game shows Tony Hawk as the selected skater for the player.The course select menu. Initially, only two levels are available for the player: Foundry and Canada. The "Foundry" level is highlighted, showing the inside of a steel mill.Gameplay in Free Skate mode on the Foundry level in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3. The first level available to the player, it is set in a steel mill (just the sort of place you'd expect to find skateboarders hanging around) that just happens to have railings and halfpipe-like structure conducive to performing tricks. Being an active steel mill, the Foundry features moving pieces of machinery that alternatively act as hazards and opportunities to perform tricks. One of the signature features of the Foundry is a vat of molten steel at occasionally has more steel added into it via a large bucket. Completing a "transfer" (successfully leaping over the gap) over the vat will add a special trick to your combo.
