So you would have noticed now that the game has a film grain effect.

So do you like it or not?

I personally don't makes it hard for me to see due to my smaller TV

Do you think an Option should be implemented so that you can turn it off

Im bit confused...

You mean the gray(ish) tint what fills your screen when you are low on health? Or something else?

a Grainy look on the screen it also dampers the colour

Hmm...

Don't know about that... But that could be because of my old a$$ tv... :D

Only thing what bugs me, is the gray(ish) tint what fills your screen when your health goes around 10...

They could have made it to disappear after a while...

And for that you have to pay a prize...

And in this case the prize is that you are nearly blind... :D

I don't notice any grain?

The only problem is all the text throughout the entire game are soo small I have a lot of trouble reading it.

I don't mind the film grain filter, it looks good.

I guess on a CRT screen it would be hard to notice...but on an LCD/HDTV you can see it clearly.

i quite like it but it would be nice if you could turn it off to see the difference like you can in mass effect

Personally I really don't like the film grain effect. It makes my HD TV look rubbish. I would much prefer the game not to have it or at least to have the option to turn it off.
