The following is something I cut and pasted from riva 3d. It makes a good point.

Where Are GF3 Games? - rossv @ 15:55 PST
I thought about writing a little article about this, but I'll just post it here in the news instead. The power and capability of the GeForce 3 has been touted for some time now, and we've all been eagerly awaiting that "next-generation of realism" to appear in games. SO where exactly are these games?
It's true that many are in development, and there's been a couple released recently, the most notable being Aquanox, but we've yet to see those blockbuster games that really push the limits of the GeForce 3 while delivering the content and playability features that make a game truly outstanding.
In reality, those games already exist. Unfortunately, you need an XBox to play them. Halo, Munch's Oddysey, Nightcaster, Dark Summit, Dead or Alive 3, and countless other XBox games are excellent examples of the real power of the GeForce 3. But if these games were released for the PC world to enjoy, there wouldn't be a compelling reason to buy the XBox. There's no doubt that we'll see these games ported over to the PC as the titles become a bit older for the Xbox, but in the meantime, we can probably expect the majority of the true GeForce 3 games to go the XBox way.
