Me too thanks.

Man, I wish they had some nice A0-sized Quake or Unreal Tournament or Heretic or Hexen box art poster pictures D: .

I can design that and actually can print that for pretty cheap too (Since it is my job )
But can't send, international cargo prices sucks

Printing is no problem, I've got a printing shop just one street away from me and they did a damn fine job printing my Doom poster. But do you do recreation of existing posters then? Oo

I am using graphic design programs for other purposes but i am pretty sure i can do it. There is no way to turn a low resolution picture into hd, you can make it a bit sharper and stuff but overall quality will be not much different.
I am not sure what you really mean by recreating an existing poster though.

Stuff like turning this into an A0-sized image without just vectorising it:

[TheDR]

To be honest, because it's such a simple design, the quake poster might look quite good vectorised.

[Chyros]

Might be, but the metallic bronze texture of the quake logo might be lost, and that's a really big part of the look.

I'm sure there's bigger, higher-quality versions of that boxart, but nothing good enough for A0 format.

[General]

I have no idea how to turn low resolution image into high resolution, not sure it can be done too

However, i did this by combining high resolution images i have found on google:

[Chyros]

=o That's actually not bad, although you can see the pixels around the bottom edge rather clearly.

[TheDR]

I'll have a go after work

I kinda want to play Quake now, but i know i will not enjoy it if i do

[Slightly Wonky Robob]

Oh dear.

That's an FP in Bob's sig!

KF2 was free on PS4, thought I'd give it a go, see how it compares with the PC version.

Somebody already did that:

[Slightly Wonky Robob]

I mean control-wise. Couldn't give a shit about graphics. >_> (I've been playing KF1 on low on my Mac at work for a couple of years - the flashlight doesn't even light anything up )

I'd probably get on fine with the controls if I hadn't played the PC version, but I find the weapon switching kinda fiddly. It's not easy to switch to a specific weapon.

Exactly, anybody who gives a shit about graphics wouldn't play anything on a console anyway .

I played Quake 2-3(even 4) when it first came out and liked them. Now it just doesn't appeal anymore :( Must. invade. countries. on Civ5. again!
