Re: audiosurf
Hi, i've tested audiosuf a while ago and it looks mostly good.
There are some little issues though.
The game is very very unstable (it already is in 2D but in 3D it's even worse) in my case for some reason i managed to launch the game fullscreen once and then never again. I had to play windowed or it kept crashing when switching to fullscreen.
The game also doesn't work with all modes, i only managed to play it in anaglyph (or crash).
Once in the game, the 3D looks very good and riding the waves in 3D is a really thrilling experience.
There are a few artifacts though : most of the UI is displayed at a random depth. the Trails effects (premium graphics mode only) go in different directions for both eyes (typical trails/motion blur effect S-3D artifact).
But turn down the graphics to advanced and the experience get almost flawless... if you just don't mind switching on and off 3D everytime you display a menu/score/choose-song/options, etc...
Using anaglyph is also tricky since the game is almost entirely based around colours, i managed to tweak the colour scheme to get something playable, and the white theme looked much better than the dark ones.
I think there are some shots in the gallery (not sure).
edit : no they aren't in the gallery, i used to host them on my website before it was shutdown.
I don't have the shots here, i'm not at home, i can't redo them at the moment.
