Ghost rings, it's called.. and it's a well known, and highly used sighting system. Even using the M4A1's iron sights. Comparing the two.. the FN FAL and the M14 both share the same sight.

In a way yes the M14 also use a ghost ring ,but the one on the FAL is always depicted with a more obstructed view,like the hole is not large enough.

Most renditions of the FAL in games are like that,i just cant see s**t with it.

The M14 on the other hand doesnt seem too obstructed since the hole of the ghost ring on that one is larger and the V at the tip of the barrel is more thin and better shaped.

Which I can only assume means we're going to see a lot of Far Cry and Turok games. Heh.

Ladies and gentlemen,Ahoy present...the P-90.

It's one of my favorite SMG,always liked the design,it's larger ammo capacity and it's fast fire rate.

His next video's going to be about the Polybius myth, which sounds really interesting.

I cringed when he played Marines Doom without a DeHackEd patch active, but dear god I've been on the edge of my seat about this story and I'm only 46 minutes in.

Good old Rogue Synapse, eh? I remember being six and lamenting the fact that Starfighter wasn't a real game ...
