Hello to all. First, i'm sorry if this is the wrong section to post this, but somehow I feel this is the most correct place to post something related to the S3 Virge, since i'm not looking for the "games" per se, but just anything that was made specifically for the Virge hardware.
The S3 Virge was my first 3D "accelerator", and somehow I fell in love with it. I remember always struggling overclocking the card and applying tweaks just to get some more fps and make any game near "playable". The years passed and eventually switched and switched cards, even sold that card because back in that time, I needed the money. Also as time passed by, I started to learn a lot from this chip, also learning that a "lot" of games were made specifically to it. All I ever played when I had the card was Terminal Velocity.
A lot of years passed and eventually I could buy again an S3 Virge card, a Diamond Stealth 3D 2000 Pro, and so started my quest to try to gather the s3d games.
I already bought some of them, including the popular ones, like TV, Tomb Raider, Descent2, POD. Also thanks to someone in this forums (Jorpho) I could locate one of the weirdest ones, Time Warriors. Also got Terracide.
Thing is, i'm still missing some, like the popular MW2. I searched and searched through ages so I could find it, but all I found was people with the other versions, or people who got their hands on it, but traded it for another version (3dfx). I'm also missing the Destruction Derby version, which I think came bundled with some Diamond cards. Other s3d games that seems impossible to find are the Actua Soccer s3d version, sometimes called OEM semi-finals version.
Please, if someone knows were to get any of them, or if you HAVE them, i'm interested. I'll buy it from you if you want, so I can complete my collection or at least have some more. Any info would be appreciated. Sorry for the long post. Thanks.
