GeForce4 Go 488 Game Requirement Analysis

GeForce4 Go 488 is a fast-middle-class GPU part of the GeForce4 Go Series released by in 2002.
It's based on the architecture "NV18M", same used on the middle-class desktop GeForce4 Series and the performance is similar thanks to the higher clock frequencies.
The performance is still very limited, so today's games are unplayable.
