Yeah, I know 3dfx are gone now... 
Well the advanced Unreal engine (often dubbed 'Warfare' despite that fact that the future game 'Unreal Warfare' won't use that engine) primarily uses DirectX now. In fact, it was very nearly not going to support Voodoo cards! 
(In case you hadn't guessed, I'm still stuck with my old Voodoo 3 2000. )

hehehehe.. my tertiary machine still uses one of those quaint voodoo 3 cards as a secondary display adapter. It's a Voodoo 3 3000, though. .. the secondary machine has a GeForce2 GTS, and the primary, a Radeon M6.

Oh, me wants a GeForce 4 Ti4600. Or one of those others, when they come out. I forget what they're called... nVidia somethings.
