Just thought I would share some old 3DFX commercials that I thought where funny. I really wonder how these got approved. Share your memories of 3DFX below.

I remember not being able to afford the voodoo3 card and having to settle with the 3dfx banshee to make my brand new game half life run well enough to play it.  I never actually saw 3dfx commercials, but then again once I got into computers as a kid I pretty much haven't watched TV since.

3dfx is bae. I'd love to get a bunch of cards and just keep them.

 

Guess my VooDoo 3 3000 will have to do though.

Yeah. I have an old BFG Geforce 6800 GT OC on my wall. I would love to get some old 3DFX cards.
