Wing Commander: Prophecy, Deus Ex
Paid way too much for a Voodoo card but got so much enjoyment from it.
The "American Megatrends" BIOS screenshot... good times.
Quake 2 was one of the first games I loaded up after installing my card. The coloured lighting, smoothed textures and silky smooth framerate were just totally mindblowing for me at the time.
It was all enough to make me forget about the fact that I had a janky heatsink/fan assembly with the PC case lying on its side. I gamed like that for at least a year or so until I could get an upgraded motherboard with AGP slot to support newer cards.
Fond memories, though.
The SyncMaster will always have a special place in my heart though. Played many old DOS games on that from UFO: enemy unknown, to x-wing, tie fighter, and Ultima VIII. It went through many family PC upgrades and I inherited it. The 17" CRT started to get a bit more affordable in the era of the Pentium II, III and AMD K6-2/3 and I think it'll be a better pairing with the Voodoo 2 enabled system.
The card served me well for a number of years. Unreal looked amazing on it.

I wonder why they were doing so bad comercially since in our microcosm voodoo cards were the best. It was a sad day when nvidia just bought and killed the brand.
The Voodoo2 was the first PC peripheral I ever purchased, and I have fond memories playing the first Delta Force game with it. Was also the first box I wanted to keep like a trophy.
