The game looked quite Unreal for its time. Played the everloving crap out of it on my OG iMac w/ a 8mb VooDoo2 card.

I played it first rendered in software on a S3 Virge GX/P233, but still looked incredibly good.

Think my Voodoo 2 actually came with this game, and Incoming and possibly Descent 3, and a weird racing game.

the original iMacs didn't use a Voodoo 2.

no macs did, though they could be made to work. i gave my stepdad my Voodoo 3 when i upgraded, he flashed it over to work on Mac. we had it in a 8500/200.

iMacs couldn't do this though, they didn't have a expansion slot.

edit: i was wrong. see the following comment.

The very first Bondi blue iMac (Rev. A) had a mezzanine slot for expansion. There was a VooDoo2 card which was produced to utilize this slot. I had the original Bondi blue iMac with the VooDoo2 mezzanine slot card.
