BC3K Special Defense Fleet Competition Announced

BC3K Special Defense Fleet Competition lands in February 1999 as PC hardware makers keep pushing faster chips, cards, drivers, and gaming peripherals.

BC3K Special Defense Fleet Competition has been announced, adding another target to a 1999 calendar already packed with more games and gear than anybody has time to play.

The names attached here include Derek Smart, The Special Defense Fleet Competition, Tour Of Duty, Gammulan, and 3dfx Voodoo2. The hook is LAN and online. The hard numbers include 12MB and 16MB.

The hardware race is getting mean now. Every new board, driver, chip, and oddball peripheral is trying to be the thing that makes your rig feel less old by next week.
