My first 3D video game on a 3D video card ATI Voodoo Graphics 3Dfx. Fabulous cinematics, incredible gameplay with the 4 different seats of the bridge (pilot, weapons, navigation and engines), with a realistic physics model and an amazing story. My first video game extase. A very exiting adventure in a real space simulator ! A milestone in the history of spacesims (Elite, Privateers) ! Can't find the even better independance war 2 "Edge of Chaos" in the list !

Best "realistic" (small) capital spaceship simulator to this day. I would love to see remake in modern technology. And this intro back then was just crazy! BTW I still have original CDs

Black & White 2
Black & White 2In the game, the player takes the role of a god called from the void (nothingness) to help those who invoked them. However, the player is not an omnipotent style god, but rather a god who rises and falls with his believers and the player must help develop their nature according to their good or evil desires. The player also has a creature, their physical representation in the world, which takes the form of an anthropomorphic ape, lion, wolf, turtle, cow, or tiger. Its physical manifestation can grow to an immense size, and adopt a good or evil persona separate of the player's. They develop their character as the player rewards or punishes their actions. In addition to the god simulation and city-building elements introduced in the original Black & White, Black & White 2 also features elements of real-time strategy gameplay, with the addition of controllable warfare and fighting units.
