Yes , that was Ultima Online you can buy a checker or chess set but it was
really imposible to play on too small and hard to place the pieces on the right
squares.
Resident Evil 2 has chess pieces in it, a character in the game loved chess and
designed a lock on a based on the game. You have to find 4 hidden chess pieces
in the police headquarters and the place them in the right holes on the door to
unlock it.
There is another movie with a chess computer in it,it is Virtuosity with Denzel
Washington. A computer female personality is playing a game of chess against
herself, I guess, shes incredibly beautiful, another actor in the movie says
"and she can play a mean game of chess."
