I have nVidia TNT2 and I tried the game in 1024x768 with triple buffer and it is the best, it just looks so real and smooth, it rocks!

It allcomes down to what you want from a card.

I personally wanted a card that wold still play all my old games going right back to the start of 3d accelerated games in 96 97, and I have about 70 games and every single one works perfectly with my Voodoo 5.

GeForce wouldnt be able to run about half of those games, also Voodoo 5 has superior FSAA which is a huge improvement in RAcing games where jagggy lines on the track and shimmering in the distance can disorientate you and look messy.

I belive you when you say GeForce is faster and perhaps it even looks a little better in shades and colours, but I chose the card that gave me what I wanted personally, and as im gonna get an XBOX next year this voodoo5 means I will have full compatibilty and FSAA for my entire library of games evermore.

And as for playing the demo, im sure either card is great, The voodoo 5 certainly looks excellent and with FSAA on even at a low resolution the white pitch lines and nets in the goal look smooth, clear and perfect, now how can you say that isnt great? http://www.soccergaming.com/ubb/smile.gif
