Yep, POD was amazing. Wasted many hours on that game.U must mean Pentium I 90 MHz if I remember correctly. Then came mmx with mmx enabled games like POD
Wow I played all of those games back in the day and I am sure they looked more realistic than that
Need for Speed II: Special Edition - OMG look at the graphics, I use to think the cars looked so amazing.
I think around that time I was using a 16MB Banshee but honestly I can't really recall.

3DFX was going out of business, regardless if they were bought. Nvidia bought them because they were intelligent business people.And then Nvidia bought the company just so they could destroy competition, hated the Nvidia turds ever since.
It was PCI, AGP came out much later. And short lived before PCI-E.The move from software to hardware accelerated 3D (in Tomb Raider 1) was one of my alltime wow moments in gaming. I had an Orchid Voodoo1 and then a Voodoo 3 2000 (AGP or was it PCI?).
Always loved the early NFS, especially that mad looking Ford Indigo.
Another vote for Unreal needing to be on the list. The graphics combined with the animations were absolutely jaw dropping for that time. Loved me some MechWarrior - played a ton of that.
Interestingly enough, I bought a couple of classic games from GOG over the weekend during their sale. And I've come to the conclusion that revisiting old games you once had a blast with is not a great idea. They just don't hold their age well. After playing games like Bioshock: Infinite, Far Cry 3 and StarCraft II, then switching to Unreal II The Awakening or Fallout 2 - it's just not fair. For me, I think it's best to leave those great games in the memory banks as great games. Back then...
Just Googled it- "AGP 2x".It was PCI, AGP came out much later. And short lived before PCI-E.
Wow, the memories of those games and we thought then....."Sweet, amazing graphics" - LOL
