Voxels, you say? Funny sounding word, eh? But there was a time in the early 90s when they were all the hype!

Those of you old enough to actually remember when voxels revolutionized gaming, will probably do so because of Comanche: Maximum Overkill (NovaLogic, 1992).

It is widely regarded as the first commercial game using that technology. Voxels, short for "volumetric pixels", are the 3D equivalent of 2D pixels - simply put.

When Comanche was released, there was quite a lot of hype around it, being the first to divert from the much more common use of polygons for 3D worlds, not just in flight sims.

Gameplay was more suitable for beginners, and maybe less interesting for flight sim veterans who expected more depth in terms of controls and missions (e.g. what the likes of Gunship 2000 had to offer).

The game's relatively modest system requirements for its era also made it more appealing to the casual gamer, targeting 386 PCs, and making it accessible rather than "high-end".

Daft Punk spent nearly two years crafting the score for TRON: LEGACY (2010).

Working alongside an 85-piece orchestra, they fused electronic music with classical arrangements to give the Grid a timeless, operatic sound.

The theatrical cut of KINGDOM OF HEAVEN (2005) lost 45 minutes after the studio demanded major cuts.

Ridley Scott’s Director’s Cut restored that footage, completely transforming the film into what many now consider one of his greatest works.

Si el Leipzig hace que SU jugador cumpla las obligaciones de su contrato, es que "reta" al Madrid.
Si el Atlético hace lo mismo con Julián, es que hay que respetar los contratos y el Barça debe dejar tranquilo al jugador.
Y así todo.

Ojo al tráiler de THE X-FILES: I WANT TO BELIEVE: VRACH FRANKENSHTEYN, la restauración del film que censuraron a Chris Carter, recuperando el metraje de terror, las mutaciones con vibras a THE THING y con nueva calificación R. El 14 de agosto en Disney+

Avui a tertúlia @maticatradio la quota de Comuns ha exhibit barroca ignorància s/habitatge.
E.g: dir que compra 'especulativa' és prohibida a tot UE.
Es 'prohibí' a unes ciutats de Països Baixos. Efecte: no afectà preu de venda i augmentà preu lloguer un 4% addicional

Ralph Bakshi's gorgeous, rotoscoped, and incredibly dark animated version of THE LORD OF THE RINGS (1978) was, at times, like a nightmare to my 9 year-old self. I had particular problems with the creepy Nazgûl, especially during this famous scene...

FIRST LOOK: An official trailer dropped earlier today for The X-Files: I Want to Believe - Vrach Frankenshteyn, which is creator Chris Carter’s scarier, R-rated director’s cut of the 2008 film. Carter said recently this is the version of the film the studio once found too frightening to release. But alas, here we are, Carter’s version premieres on August 14, 2026, on Hulu and Disney+.

A raíz de los incidentes en Ceuta, y tras haberse calmado un poco la situación, vamos a dar un poco de contexto.

¿Cuál ha sido el objetivo diplomático español con Marruecos desde el siglo XVIII-XIX? ¿Y la estrategia actual viene de allí?

Si alguien ha creído en Ferrán Torres ha sido el Barça y, sobre todo, este cuerpo técnico. Si alguien no ha creído en Ferrán Torres es la prensa y el la mayoría de aficionados españoles. “Va a la selección por ser el yerno de”, “es un paquete”, “no mete un gol a nadie”, etc.
