7.) Yup... InnoVision 3DXRush and PowerColor EvilKing 4 32MB AGP
8.) Welll, my friend bought new computer with 3dfx before me. I've looked at box od Helios Vooodoo Rush. He said: "You looks like you saw Jesus..."
9.) Until last of us remember this moment when 3dfx-accelerated game was on...
10.) I do not, I had a lot of them about 10 - 12 - 15 year ago. Now I only have those, which i really use.
11.) No, it wasn't. BUT i was young since then, world was so much bigger and had so many secrets. I think it was SPECIAL.
12.) Yes... Well: Poland, Australia, USA, Espania, Germany... etc..
13.) It would be the same. If not 3dfx, then someone else has had to take a step into 3D game acceleration.
14.) It was debute of 3DfX cards and 3D-accelerated games. Like Quake, Tomb Rider...
15.) Of course! ;-)
16.) Too late, too expensive.
17.) As I remember moste of PC enthusiasts spoke more of new coming features like T&L than fillrate. So it was dead end.
18.) 3Dfx should focus on the chips production, not cards. And on the shortening of the design process.
