As did I, but it really served the entirety of 1998 as a 3D accelerator benchmark in many gaming magazines, together with Forsaken and Unreal.

The (unplayable) strategy mode was further explored in Rare's Hostile Waters: Antaeus Rising

Back in those days, everyone had some Blizzard game installed. I also loved playing Quake 3, Unreal Tournament, and Tribes. Dungeon Keeper and a Civilization game will keep you addicted. Some infinity engine RPG like Planescape Torment, Fallout, etc. Load up on some hentai games, emulators, doujin shooters, point & click adventures. Sprinkle some anime movies like GitS, J-pop/rock mp3s, superplay/combo videos and that would be like a quintessential computer of the day.
