It's that weird pattern covering the top third of the screen.

The vignette is the darkening of the edges of the screen

The scanlines are the faint moving lines at the top of the screen

A special effect that makes your point of view look as if you are viewing it through a digital screen (like the inside of Iron Man's helmet). It's really only noticeable on the edges of your view. The game definitely looks better with it turned off, though.

Probably saves a tiny bit of processor usage, too.
So happy to find out this is programmed into the game and not my $1000 monitor going on the fritz.

How does one "turn it off?"

I really hate it, makes the top of the screen look like you're watching a 3D movie without the glasses.

It's the visual effect of the HUD restricted to the edges of the screen. It compliments the immersion of the game and making it look less comic book manufactured and more realistic.

It creates a nice effect like watching your adventure through an analogue transmission signal beamed across the universe onto your 1960's first moon landing TV report :DDD

I like it on. :) It's especially good with photo mode filters or custom mod filters you can play exclusive of photo mode. It mostly is only viewed when the HUD is active and you have the option to switch it on if you like it.

I am glad that I found this. It was honestly causing migraines to occur, and I could feel an almost instant relief turning that crap off.
