[movingtables]

Does anyone remember this little belter?
I loved this game and at the time the graphics blew me away.
I remember running it on a 3dfx card and it even ran under dos lol.

I don't even remember that it supported 3Dfx. All I know is that I had some good fun with a 486 DX4 100 and Cirrus Logic 512Kb ISA graphics

Can't believe how bad the graphics were that I used to think were awesome

Only under DOS glide (much like some other car games from that era, Carmageddon and GTA).

Very good arcade racer, although a little short perhaps.

Yep loved it

Still have my original game as well and the Screamer games before it. SR was the best in the series though and at the time a landmark 3DFX title as the gfx were stunning and the driving model was perfect (albeit arcadish with no realism).

You can still get this running today but it obviously looks dated.

If you want a similar modern game Sega Rally is the one to get as it looks stunning and has a very similar feel to the Screamer games

going over the bridge and doves flying past...damn some nice memories of this game.

what happened to the big boxes?

They became the less space consuming, although potentially less 'green' since it's plastic, DVD cases that we still use today

Screamer rally was awesome, it was a barely disguised Sega Rally knock-off but it was huge fun

 

[phatboy]

Still own all the screamers

 

[Naffa]

Ahh... The good old days of spending hours and hours trying to get a game to work on my computer, but to no avail.

 

[FlamBango]

God, the Screamers were ace!

What happened to 3dfx? They ruled the world at one point , now nothing!

 

[Skiddley]

I've still got my original Voodoo 3dfx card in the loft

 

[DreXeL]

What happened to 3dfx?

nVidia bought them.
