Title: Your V5 gaming suggestion !!
Post by: Steph3dfx on 27 February 2006, 23:36:01
I was playing Undying yesterday and appart from being a superb shooter, I was shocked by how good the graphics where.
(1024x768 Voodoo5 PIII800 all effects at max)
I also played Wheel of Time last week, another great FPS, with great graphics (the characters/skins are not that great however).
Deus Ex would also fit in this categorie.
(3 titles based on the UT engine, wich we all know was design for glide)

Any other glide or GL titles I should try ?? lost gems ?? [:p]

Oups I forgot Rune, wich is very good if you can go past the early boring levels.
I need to find my copy somewhere.
Good call Voodoo 5 on American McGee's Alice, I definitly need to try that one.

@Steph3dfx,



QuoteI have just finished Undying on my vintage system. Wow what a superb game

I agree with you 100%, it's one of my all time favourite FPS games [8D]

I have been playing alot of Descent3 and Freespace 2 lately (1024x768, 4X FSAA in glide mode) and there both fantastic games ;)
