    On the Win32 side, Ballistics was one of the first games to use DirectX 8 vertex and pixel shaders, which where introduced with the Geforce3.

    Here's a Maximum PC review. It got a 7, with gorgeous graphics but not too much content. Interestingly, it only listed for $30.

    How are we going to play these games on Linux, when setting up 3D is such a dark-art voodoo nightmare? I cringe when thinking of trying to make OpenGL work.
