This Week in Retro | Talking About 3DFX Voodoo cards - This Week In Retro 111 @ThisWeekinRetro | Uploaded February 2023 | Updated October 2024, 1 day ago.
We have a special guest this week from Germany. Ian joins us to talk all things 3dfx VooDoo. We also think about some claims from Lord Alan Sugar that his products were better than Apple's. Could he be right? Finally we talk about RPGs and the rewrite of Thalion's Ambermoon.
