Not to mention, the brightness correction does virtually nothing.  I
got some stupid monitor with glare reduction or something and it makes
all my color palettes a lot darker.  I can't see a thing when I'm in
the streets, much less the sewers.  And the "ICANTSEE" cheat doesn't
really help much either, putting a tiny little window of nightvision
in the upper-right corner.
