Those are two very good ones. I especially remember being surprised at the smoothness and speed of Ballblazer. Another good 3-D action game is The Eidolon. Then, you have adventures which present something like 3-D views. Alternate Reality: The Dungeon does a very nice job in plain hires, especially since you can see monsters approaching in real time. So do several of the SSI AD&D adventures and Dark Heart of Uukrul. Bard's Tale's 3-D is pretty good, too. In double-hires, Might and Magic II, WindWalker, and Dragon Wars have good 3-D displays.
