Let's see, Deus Ex, Driver, GL Hexen, All of the Mac Tomb Raider series, Carmaggedon I and II, Unreal, Unreal Tournament, every other game based on the Unreal engine, every game based on the Quake engine, did I mention Quake?, Myst, Riven, Myst III (mostly, but that's a buggy game anyway), any OpenGL game and even most RAVE games play nicely on my Voodoo5 5500 in my 9600/540.
By the way, a few games coming out _now_ still list GLIDE support. ATI cards have only in the last year and a half started performing better overall. The V5 has absolute support for GLIDE games (of course), very good support for OpenGL games, reasonable (playable) support for RAVE games, and QuickDraw 3D and QuickTime acceleration. It was a hallmark in its day and _still_ compares favorably in a 66 MHz PCI slot. All this from engineers who knew that their management was positioning to sell out. It's only serious flaw was SDR memory when it should have had DDR memory and 190 MHz GPU clock speed. By the way, does anyone know how to overclock a Mac Voodoo5? Bruce, you don't know what your talking about. Do a search on the web on Voodoo cards and see what people who have used the card think (and feel).
