As far as Diablo II goes, it's hardy what I would call 3D (A little 3/4 top down
2D with 3D looking overlays.). I've played it all the way through twice and lots
of multiplayer (Me and 4 friends for about 5 months.). Is this game worth
upgrading to a Geforce for, of course not. If thats the only game you own, I'm
sure you'll be happy with your 3Dfx.

I do own a Voodoo II 12MB (Creative). It's in my daughters machine with her K6-2
400. That's where it belongs. It's low end, passe, and beyond life for all, but
the most casual gaming. When you grow up and don't have to resort to name
calling, maybe we can have a discussion.

bye, Rick
