Any 3dfiles vets out there?

***Pozer*** · July 10th, 2001

I started going to www.3dfxmania.com aka 3dfiles.com ever since i got voodoo1 card., but in recent years the site went to crap. The site use to be updated alot more and had alot of extra odd 3d related stuff. They also use to have better servers. anyone remember "epix". zdnet has really horrible servers. I only pull 12kbs and this is on an OC3 connection. Its sad because it use to be the best site on the internet 3 years ago. Voodooextreme is way better. Anyone out there remember the glory days of 3dfiles.com?
Are their any vets out there?

I do,

It's funny you say that about going there since a Voodoo I, that was my reason too for stopping in there initially whilst I lived in Atlanta Ga. from 1995-1999... hitting 3dfiles in 1996 I believe if memory serves me right, or early 1997 as 3dfxmania!

I got into the messageboards there & hung out there for 5 years time... good fun, it displaced IRC as my favorite hangout in fact!

* Would I call myself a "veteran" there? I guess I would... lol, for time-served!

Sup guy! Nice to see ya come along too.

I've been over there since Oct '99. Could be a vet, but there is always something new coming along. Well, not anymore really.

Yeah, that's when I got in.

I started going to 3dfiles when it was 3dfxmania, back when I had to download a patch in order to play a game using my 3d card.

Actually, I went to Voodoo Extreme a lot back then too.

That was about 4 1/2 years ago, and I have been posting there since.
