Comments by "Juzu Juzu" (@juzujuzu4555) on "Tomb Raider: A Tale of Two Laras" video.
Tomb Raider 1, with brand new 3DFX and AMD K6 233mhz CPU. It was something that cannot be described to people who are not from the 90s era. Only thing I would say that was more amazing was Doom in 93 with 486 DX2 66mhz that run it in full screen at high FPS.

Tomb Raider with 3DFX Voodoo was what exploded 3D Accelerators. It's just insane what that game did in 1996. In a way it was the biggest leap of game tech, though I still have to give that title to Doom in 1993. I remember playing Tomb Raider and having the Twitch audience present in my room, raising the temperature to insane levels. That game was pretty much perfect.

@aldunlop4622 For some reason your comment made me remember so lively one thing. I was checking out my friends Pentium 60mhz, he got it immediately when it came, and it could run one game at 640x480 (I don't remember the name, but it was some futuristic racing game). My DX4 100mhz got like 6fps in that resolution on that game, and I remember thinking, who the hell would ever play games on high resolution. I remember that instance like a film. And it feels so funny now. And now history repeats itself, I really don't understand 4K gaming. Maybe it doesn't cause too much more power requirements or some other reason (marketing), but I just don't see the point. However I'm really happy for faster GPUs because those are so important to scientific research etc.

I remember playing Tomb Raider with AMD K6 233mhz couple of days before buying the 3DFX card, and the rest is history. I constantly had my room full of friends just watching as I played the game. The biggest improvements were the really large areas. I remember how I couldn't understand how the CPU, RAM etc. could support all of that.
