    In 1998, by connecting two Voodoo 2 cards together, you would experience faster 3D graphics performance, but also increase the max resolution from 800x600 to 1024x768.

    Scan-Line Interleave (SLI) technology was first introduced on the Voodoo 2 for PCs and later when NVIDIA purchased 3dfx, they too started using the technology on their own GPUs.

  2. What happened to Tugs? Models & Interviews! Documentary

    Thomas the Tank Engine may grab the limelight, however a related series that first started in 1989 ramped up the quality in a charming show set in the 1920s called Tugs.

    Sadly, Tugs only survived a single series however its legacy is one of great fondness.

    A few years ago, I was lucky enough to view the real models up close in this documentary.

  7. A PC I purchased at the end of 2019 suits me well, yet with all this fairly modern tech I still use my ASUS Xonar D2X soundcard from 2008 - yes a 14 year old soundcard! Still works and sounds amazing.

    Not sure I need the EAX 2.0 support today, but amusing nethertheless. Remember EAX folks?

  8. Not sure why 30fps for Starfield is causing such online craziness

    - 30fps is a perfectly reasonable target for a console game that spans a universe and is pushing fidelity
    - 30fps has been used on many consoles historically if they really want to push the bar
    - No we don't need an "Xbox Series X Pro" - due to COVID & hardware shortages we haven't pushed the current hardware, with so many multi-generation games released (Xbox One & Xbox Series X)

  9. I love a good bargain, but never seen a 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray for £1!

    Never seen this film either, so great news all around.

  10. Trying hard to preserve my HD DVD format collection, a format that lost to Blu-ray which had great potential but sadly didn't last long.

    The Xbox 360 sold a HD DVD add on for £99 which included the HD DVD drive and King Kong on the format. I'm using this plugged in via USB on Windows to back up the discs. Mostly successful, except for this Heroes box set where disc rot has taken a grip sadly.

  12. I love finding new YouTube channels with video content showing #retrogaming repairs.

    vswitchzero has a number of #3dfx, #matrox and #intel projects and repairs that I've really enjoyed watching. I had no idea that reflashing a BIOS on a graphics card could resolve so many issues!

  13. Never owned an Amiga, I had an Acorn Archimedes A3010 so enjoying trying Pimiga out on my Raspberry Pi 4.

    Any tips for an Amiga n00b?

  14. The SEGA Dreamcast VMU is still such a cool thing!

    When else was there ever such a fantastic way to store saved games and also include a display that you could play a little game on or view additional information while playing the console game on the TV when the VMU was connected to your Dreamcast controller.

  15. Do you miss playing Xbox Live on the 'original' Xbox?

    Well then make sure you follow @insignia to view the games they are adding on a regular basis that supports their free service, allowing you to again play these games online. This is a new service so there is still plenty to be added, but it's been great fun so far.

  16. Well the dream is real!

    Xbox Live on the original Xbox is indeed back with @insignia, with my first experience on Midtown Madness 3 in what must be around 15 years. Ran really well.

  17. I never thought I would see the day when I can connect my original Xbox to... Xbox Live! A service that shut down in April 2010 for the first generation Xbox console.

    Thanks to @insignia, I can connect to their free Xbox Live service specifically for original Xbox games from nearly 20 years ago.

    Now where did I place my original Midtown Madness 3 disc???

    Fun times are coming, with a massive dose of online gaming nostalgia.

  18. Donald Duck in Quackshot on the SEGA Megadrive on a CRT TV via RGB Scart.

    Although I've been previously enjoying games through the OSSC to upscale to a much larger 4K display, still love that CRT look on an actual CRT TV.

  23. Ahh that beautiful moment when you know your 3dfx card is kicking in ready for 3D acceleration action (animated gif).

    If you owned a 3dfx and this doesn't get you tingling with nostalgic sentiment from the days of DOS, Windows 95/98 - nothing will :)

  28. I enjoy the remake of the original Halo available on the MasterChief Collection for the Xbox One, but there is certainly a different atmosphere.

    The original just felt more alien and mysterious to me, where the newer version is all about detail and therefore raises the overall lighting level to view it all.

    Not knowing what's in the distance or hiding around the corner has a power all of its own...

    What do you think?

  29. That time Simon the Sorcerer made it into the bedroom 🤣

    Now it covers up my Yamaha Tyros4 keyboard and provides a nice backdrop when I'm on camera in daily meetings. Always a good talking point along with the Displate posters.
