OMG , I can't really describe this image, I'll just say it is "soothing to my soul", I can't look it enough :lol: I don't play sport games but I wish there were more DOS 3D games like that, with this "broken" and unique 3D style... thanks for sharing these images vetz :blush: I know, right?

Re: [received the wrong item from ebay] how much drawback a GTX 280 has compared to GTX 285, especially for mini-ITX case?
Posted on 2014-06-13, 23:26
150$ is quite a lot for a GTX 280. You can buy these second hand for 60-70 euro here! I'm guessing that's because of shipping. Whatever the case, a partial refund is something you should press on. If the seller isn't straight with you, I'd take it straight to ebay, you have a case here. I don't …
Re: Tell your story. What made you sign up to Vogons?

DOS and Win9x games, DOSBox and of course 3Dfx and older hardware. I was simply amazed by what I found. I lurked for a few months (I think that was in 2006) and then I registered. It has been a very fun ride, it seems every week or so I learn something new 😀.

Its hard to cry tears for lost Australian jobs when you look at the ridiculous wages that makes these jobs unsustainable, for instance I work in a menial factory job but made $432 for 8 hours on Sunday at double time rates, yesterday for the Queens birthday public holiday another $540 at double …
Anyone bought from CDAccess recently?
Posted on 2014-06-10, 09:19
I'm asking because I'm thinking of buying a couple of games from them that I can't find on eBay. Are they still in business? I'm in Europe, so if anything goes wrong it's going to be quite a snafu!

Worms 2 certainly doesn't have a 16-bit installer. I've got the initial release and it installs fine under 64-bit.

The 7850 is quite a bit faster than a 560Ti, not more or less the same. I can guarantee good compatibility with games with the 7850, at least under Windows 7 and Windows 8/8.1. Windows XP is kind of a grey area, both companies have started to really leave it behind with recent driver releases. I'd …

Still haven't managed to watch all of it (about half an hour remaining), but this is a pretty cool video. Many thanks for sharing, it's really nice to see these guys together again talking about the old days and what eventually went wrong inside 3Dfx.

Re: Has anyone seen a Voodoo 5 6000 for sale in the last 3 years?

There's a rumor that 3Dfx assets worked on the GeForce FX line of cards. Never heard anything about the GeForce 3 again. Not only is the time frame too narrow, it wasn't 3Dfx or Nvidia that standardized shaders. Microsoft's specifications for DirectX 8.0 demanded that. The Voodoo 4 was compared to …
