Watch Superman fly around a real 3D city while images from Superman Returns appear on billboards in this free unofficial 3D screen saver! Also features the classic theme tune and a countdown to the release date of the movie.
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Mr. Unix Maximus needs to get a life. If he can create something better for free, then he can comment. Personally I think it is kind of fun, although not something to stare at endlessly. =) Seems to me that a lot of work went into it. I totally agree that the screensavers that usually accompany film PR sites are really lame. it is a really cool idea to have shots from Superman Returns on the billboards.
Two suggestions...one, it would be cool if he could fly around at night. When I think of the original Superman movie, I think of the night scenes (must've been easier to hide the wires). Also, while I appreciate the variety of themes provided, the MIDI sounds a little cheesy. Could you add an option to pick an MP3 to play during the screeensaver. I have the Superman soundtrack, so it would be perfect.
I bet the Batman screensaver would be cool, but alas it is only for Windblows.
Makes me laugh!

This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Its one of those screensavers you'll probably only use a few times, and it definately isn't what you'd use to showcase your machine's gfx capabilities, but it has a certain kitsch quality about it. I just love how erratically he flies around like he's lost. I thought this guy didn't need directions?
It made me queasy

This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Wonderfully, gloriously cheesy - just like Superman itself. It really made me smile. Pity the music isn't better (the Lois and Clark theme in particular doesn't work as well as it could), but I loved this all the same. The graphics could be more detailed, but they're acceptable for only a 1.7MB download.
To the developer: a VSync option would be a useful addition. I see some very noticeable tearing from time to time with my ATI X800 card.
