I bought Unreal this weekend. The 3Dfx logo is on the box, and it says "optimized for" 3Dfx. Also, bought the mission pack for Quake II. It does not mention 3Dfx on the box, but when you open it, there is an insert. The front of the insert is in black, white and grey. It says: Cross the boundaries between man and machine and turn your obsession into a lifestyle. The GL version of Quake II: so real, you'll wish it wasn't. Work some Voodoo on your Quake II." Then there is a 3Dfx logo. Turn the insert over and their is a bad guy in color. Underneath it says: "By adding the power of a 3Dfx graphic accelerator, Quake II moves from mind-blowing to life-destroying. Tap into the full effects of collored lighting, transparency, alpha-blended textures and raging full-on framerates." Damn good advertising.
