The people in charge of hyping the new PC game Total War: Rome II keep exploiting our weakness for absurdly large, detailed screenshots — screenshots that could get their game mistaken for the most violent Where’s Waldo ever.
Their new shot today is 30,000 x 4087 and weighs in at 80MB. It’s not quite as gargantuan as their last one, but it’s big nonetheless. Download it from this official page.
It is a truly impressive thing, both in its scale and in the horrors it manages to hide.

This can not come any sooner! So moist.
Hopefully the ACB doesn’t get precious on this one and RC on it……
Now imagine a desktop that can fit that screenshot as a wallpaper……
Where’s Wally?
