I spent some time setting up a Pentium II with Windows 98 and a Voodoo 3 on PCem this weekend.
It’s really cool software, and a fun little project.
I spent a little time playing some Rainbow 6 (crazy how much the genre has changed over time) and Castle of the Winds 2.
Black and White runs well, but has some pretty bad audio stutter that I’ll have to figure out a solution for.
Do you have a favorite game from the period that I should try? I’m particularly interested in ones that are hard to run on modern versions of Windows.
Giants: Citizen Kabuto.
It’s got a hilarious and fun single player campaign where you get to play as all three factions. Obviously, playing as the giant monster and elbow-dropping buildings is the most fun, but the rest are highly enjoyable as well. Vintage Shiny at its best. Available on Steam, I just recently found out.
Oh yeah! I got that as another pack-in game, probably for a voodoo card if I’m not mistaken.
I really should check it out again, I remember it being good. Thanks for the rec.
