All I can say is that if ITS ever actually oes come out, and it looks anywhere NEAR as incredible as this demo does, I'm gonna be the first in line to buy it!! The characters look so real I would swear that it was really actual digitize footage dummied up to look like polygons! I have a P-100 only 8 megs ram and a generic S3 2 mb PCI video card. If this demo wasn't running at at least 30 fps, I certainly couldn't tell. So, to whoever was bellyaching about how horrible the demo is, all I can say is... Why don't you just keep playing Wolfenstein 3D and let us play with games like this, your IBM PC XT turbo just can't hack it. >> : kraemer >> >> : http://www.insync.net/~kraemer >> >> well it looked really good to me and I have a 486DX2/66 with 16 megs of RAM. >> Frame rate was very good.
