[Nostalgia PS1] Soul Reaver #2

I'm really enjoying this game...
Raziel the vampire is now something different.
A old god save him, but yes, he's dead.
You can switch between the two worlds:
the material one and the spiritual one.

Goodbye old chap, Aero glass

Few days ago Microsoft announces that the Aero theme will be changed in Windows 8 and the "glass" effect will be removed with shadows and other things.

only a incomplete preview, says MS

I like the Aero Glass effect and the Aero translucency in Windows 7 (elegant imho), with shadows and other effects.
These effects slow down the system? Maybe, if you have a old Pc (or if you don't want to waste resources for that), but you can choose to deactivate them.

Customization. You can choose.
Ok, the GUI design must evolve, but what is the price?

Users want customize their visual experience, so why there isn't this dialog on Windows 8?

I hope it's disappeared because it's a Beta, but...

The right path for me? Everything customizable, so users can fine tune their Windows.
Microsoft removes the customization? Customization utilities/tools will be created.
So, another 3rd-party software to install and another feature removed out-of-the-box.
GG.

How to - Tweak: bigger Alt+Tab for Windows

After enlarging Windows Aero preview thumbnails (see previous posts)... why not enlarge ALT+TAB previews?
This trick works on Windows Vista too.

You must create a new key in the system registry and insert several values... delete the created key if you mess something. :P

Let's start.

[Nostalgia Ps1] : Soul Reaver #1

This time... Soul Reaver (1999)!!
Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver is the second chapter of the Kain saga.
Do you remember the original first chapther (Blood Omen - 1996)?
I have old memories about it, never played, but I remember the solution written in a PC magazine...
Soul Reaver is the adventure of Raziel, killed by Kain, interesting uh?
This game was released for Playstation in 1999 and I remember I had a demo version, but few years ago I found the original CD. (I have a pc version too, but it doesn't work very well)
It's time to play it!
