  For one, I don't play PC games nor home games. I play VR at an arcade
  or at the local Virtual World. Now, Doom, and Wolf3d, are at the local
  VR arcade, and they are considered VR.
  For two, even though Doom was a poor example, it is a VR game. It is a
  '1st-generation' VR, compared to Descent, which is '3rd generation'
  (games like Exorex, BtechVR, and Red Planet are '2nd generation').

  Not as good as most, compared to few.
  The Sunder Prime on Btech is a tough monstrosity, with loads of ammo.
  Its main drawback is it is slow, and heats up quickly. The Mantis on
  RP is similar, but is a medium speed (280 approx. MPH). Do you have
  the Web page (for when I actually get on the Internet)?
  The screen blows up! :) Nah, the screen flashes red, and after 5 sec,

Write your reply.

assistant: Hi..
        I just played Virtua Fighter 3 and I don't like it...
First of all, I never liked any of the VIrtua Fighters because of their jerky
controls and stupid joystick techniques,, well, Virtua Fighter 3 is the same
crap as Virtua Fighter 2 with better graphics and 1 or 2 new characters.
The graphics are the best in a 3d fighting game, but the game itself just
does'nt deliver any good fun.  Also at 1$ a game, I'm not playing it anymore,
I'm waiting until Tekken 3 comes out, now there's a game with good control,
by the way, I've got preview pictures of Tekken 3 (30% complete) if any of
you want them.
        Well, I don't know what the big fuss was with VirtuaFighter3 but I
guess it'll still make some money.
