Try playing it with a 3Dfx card... Sure, in some cases the Riva does
better than Voodoo, but the fogging and lens flare are only available
on 3Dfx systems, and are totally awesome.  If the graphics were any
more realistic, and you'd need to actually be flying in the real
thing. :)

(besides, us "poor folks" running non-P2 systems don't have CPU
firepower to spare for the Riva. :)  )

Death, happily running with a P-166/Monster3D system :)
