Tomb Raider PC Version

[burningwreckage00]

Way back in 1996, when I was hopelessly addicted to Mechwarrior 2 and too young to know it, Tomb Raider was released. Around the same time, graphics cards started becoming more common due to higher demand. As a result, many different patches for Tomb Raider were released to take advantage of these cards.

 

Now to the point, since it seems like nowadays the only 3d accelerated version of Tomb Raider being used is the 3dfx version(run through various glide emulators or wrappers), I'd like to know if there were any major differences in terms of graphics between the different cards, like the PowerVR versions, the Matrox Mystique versions, and the S3 version (like which one was faster, which one had a more unique look to it, or if they all just ended up look exactly the same), from people who were lucky enough to be around at the time and have sampled each version.

 

I'm asking this here since I'm not a member of any Tomb Raider forum.
