Which contemporary commercial games used CRTs w/ PCs
« on: September 15, 2016, 02:17:57 pm »
I've just spotted a listing on Craigslist for a Madden VR machine that looks to be using a large CRT connected to a PC. Is there a list of games that used this setup? I believe I saw somewhere that there were versions of Golden Tee that ran on PC and used CRT as well.

I'm a sucker for simplicity and I'd love to find a large PC compatible CRT that isn't the Makvision that costs $600 and finding a used cabinet that has parts I could pilfer would be great.

It seems like it's that or a vertical LCD are my top options if I want the size I'm used to from before my old 27" Multisync died without having to jump through connection hoops and/or add an aftermarket video card to my lowly MAME PC.

I have one of those Madden cabinets.  It is running a WG D9200 almost exactly like the D9800 that is in my Mame cabinet.  I'm pretty sure those Silver Strike Bowling games you see everywhere have the same monitor in them.

Silver strike, golden tee, a bunch of the later global vr stuff, and also driving cabs. My MAME cab is a golden tee with the makvision. Works great.

lots of games. pretty much everything running VGA or better graphics is a conventional computer.

"area51 site 4" is probably one of the earliest conventional PC  hardware based games i can think of...and it ran 15k standard res.
