Well, a good time was had by all tonight. I'm a Quake rookie (but a Duke3D junkie) but I still managed to win a round or two in there early on. Saw several 3Dfxers on there, but only recognized as such those whose aliases were obvious. I'm sure there are a lot more of ye out there.

Most importantly, though - THAT GAME MAKES WE WANT TO GO OUT AND BUY A V3! My Banshee just doesn't cut it anymore and I've only had it for half a year. :) I'm sure there are tens of thousands upon thousands of people who have Banshees or TNTs who feel similarly. Of course for me, a sound card upgrade is also a dire necessity, and while I'm at it the CPU could use to be a little faster .. ah forget it I'll just wait till the fall.

See here's where 3Dfx CAN actually undermine their own sales. I'd really like a new video card, but if Rampage is coming out in the summer I'll wait for it. If it's not coming out till XMas I'll buy a V3 3000 to tide me over until then.

Just thought I'd let you know this is by far the coolest thread on SI. Have you guys been monitoring the nVidia thread? VERY very quiet, and no camaraderie whatsoever. We should challenge them to a match - I bet they get really great framerates on all those 200MHz TNT2 Ultras that I've seen on the shelves. <snicker>
