GLIDE is a story all in it self, it's probably the biggest reason to get a Voodoo2 board today, why? Well, because there's tons of titles developed for it and performance with native support is stunning. One of the biggest titles to run natively under GLIDE is Epic's Unreal - which IMHO is indeed the most visually stunning title ever created (although it's no Quake2 beater in terms of gameplay). A few other native titles worth a mention are Heavy Gear, Need For Speed III, Tomb Raider, WC: Prophecy, FIFA 98, NHL 98, Barrage etc.
Ok, ok, I've been babbling about this and that for long enough now you probably want to know what you'll get when/if you pick up one of these babies. You'll get a fully loaded 4/4/4 Voodoo2 (that's 12Mb on board), a neat pass-thru cable to hook up to your existing 2D board (yes you do need one of those, there's no 2D on the V2) and a SLI cable just incase you decide to get a second one. And of course a CD full with, ehm.. well.. just the drivers. Unfortunately Skywell hasn't informed me of the retail pricing on this board but expect it somewhere around $150 should it go on sale in the US.
