I just got a standard vr cab on thursday from a member here on trade but I think we met on Ebay. Anyways heres what i've found:
10 games at least listed by the manufacturer not sure they all came out.
Beachhead 2000, 2002 ,2003, Desert Gunner, Heavy Gear 2, Incoming, Invasion Earth, Operation Blockade, Sky Bandits, Sin.
Edit: Last vortek vr press release does not show Sin or heavy Gear 2 as released games or released for this system. So at least 8 games total.

My machine has a
735 MHZ Processor Intel Pentium 3
128 MB Ram
Samsung cd-rom sc-1522
80 gb HD 74.5 Useable 1.66 used for game and os 7200 rpm ata. I wasnt paying and tried to slave a standard drive off it it. Hopefully I didnt fry it.
Windows XP, its some sort of a modified version of it though. It wont let you upgrade straight to service pack 3 or internet explorer 8+.
Game system
If you close out watchdog then Orion or the main program shell you can use windows. It also has some sort of program that disables the taskbar. Haven't figured out how to easily turn that on or off except through config.sys startup. I just use keyboard buttons, window, tab, alt fn etc.
You can run the main gamefile .exe once these things are shutoff even without any kind of dongle, it's just the main game though.
I've put some other games and emus on the system and it'll play them once those system files are shuoff. Since its not a fully featured windows xp with all the feautres many emus won't run on it.
My upgrades so far
Recommended Jaton Nvidia 64MB AGP video card.
512 MB ram pc133 not brand matching
DVD drive, with intervideo player
3.5 front usb memory card multi drive. You can't really use them if you put the computer where its supposed to go though.
Dreaming of a easily removable wireless or any kind 2p 6 six button cp. You'd have to pay attention to where the helmets are at and not smack your head into it. Its do-able though.
Manufacturer suggests upgrading
any processor under 800 mhz to 1ghz
512 mb ram
video card to a janton nvidia 64mb agp
Theres what I've figured out in a few days.
