In the 00's emulation was the rough draft of a love letter from technology to classic console gaming.  Emulation made it possible to play an entire library of console games with just a PC and a modest amount of know-how.  More than that, it provided a venue for fan localization of titles that were never released in our native tongue. I will never forget the hours I spent trying to get Final Fantasy V to play on my PC, or the hours I sunk into actually playing Seiken Densetsu 3 (Secred of Mana 2).  Console emulation is praiseworthy by the fact of its existence alone.  Be that as it may, emulation has always been an approximation of the original experience.  Even with the fastest and most powerful computers, emulation doesn't seem to be able to re-create the experience with complete fidelity - often it gets close enough to scratch the itch and it's a great deal better than nothing at all, but with input lag, screen tearing glitches and a whole other litany of nitnoid issues,

About The Release After finally having the pleasure of watching this film in 3D on blu-ray, I have to say not only does it have the best color and contrast of any version of T2 to date, it's one of the best 3D blu-ray presentations I've ever seen - easily on-par with the recent Star Wars releases.  So many of the scenes were shot with such generous focal length that it's difficult to believe that the film wasn't made for 3D in the first place - where some films will include scenes which are exclusively to show off the 3D effect, T2 does this without any added effort.  This is my new favorite version of the film and I could make an argument that it's the definitive one.  With that in mind it's utterly perplexing to me why Studio Canal made it so difficult for me to watch it.  I know 3D has kind of fizzled, but they seem to be actively trying to kill it off despite people like me who still love the format and are willing to pay a little more and work a little hard
