I remember a lot of those ads as a kid and thinking "these loving suck, someone should do something" but noW Im paid a lot of money to rubberstamp garbage so I salute you uncaring mid level corporate suit of the 90s, you cash that end of history check.

I hated ads like that. They just rubbed me the wrong way since I felt they were manipulative even as an 8 year old. I loved the gross out ones though that Nintendo would do for the cutest games like Yoshi’s Island and Kirby.

While digging up those old ads, I came across one I remember vividly as a child: It was a close-up of somebody's eye with the eyelid clearly removed, and the text boasting about "a game so fast your eyelids are a liability!" And it wasn't even for a good game! It was for some pissant PSX game called "Nanotech Warrior" that nobody even remembers! But I remember turning the page to that full-page, full-color, grotesque ad as a kid and...well, at least part of it has obviously stuck with me.

Block my blank card. I always remember the Highway of Death ad for some RTS and the godawful FFVIII car giveaway sweepstakes like, my dudes, you do not get the game or audience at all.

These corporate drones are rewriting a history where the circa-2000 Toyota Echo was ever "cool" or "hip" or "neat", provoking an explosion of preorders that will become Malthusian in scale as the alternative unwashed masses pound on the brittle glass of Babbages where an insufficient quantity of Final Fantasy VIII is to be found. quote:Running through August 31, 1999, this new FFVIII sweepstakes enables registered winners to win the chance of taking home a 2000 Toyota Echo, among four total vehicles that are part of the campaign. The Toyota Echo is a new vehicle by Toyota that's aimed at young, non-conventional, consumers who want a stylish sedan that's "cool."

There are things you can accomplish with ads and theres making people who play FFVIII have money and interest in a new car that looks as horrendous as the Toyota Echo

There are so many terrible old videogame ads to reminisce about and yet the worst and simultaneously funniest (given how it turned out) ad of all time still belongs to a classic FPS game

There's been a new update for Industria that pretty much fixed all the performance issues that I was having: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1172650/INDUSTRIA/ So I'm now playing through it. What a lovely lil' game. This is the exact kind of thing I'd like to make if I were into game dev.

It was an era of a lot of pioneers getting big heads and striking off on their own which did lead to a lot of funny disasters. I’m glad John Romero turned out to be a decent, self-aware guy.

Dall-e 2 can't come soon enough, until then we get to play with dall-e mini. Everything still looks kinda surreal but it's better looking than the other AIs that have been released

The latest speedmapping session from the quake communty is a real belter. The theme is episode 4 and there are some appropriately tricky maps and awkwardly cramped spawn filled rooms to tuck into. https://quakeworld.fi/files/mappacks/sm218.zip

That is the prequel to Fear Effect, thank you very much. I remember those ads because they do a really, really bad job of conveying what Fear Effect is about which is dying grisly, horrible deaths.

And visiting hell! I think that was only in FE1 though. Oh apparently Sedna, too. I bought that for three dollars at some point. I should try it.

What Parasite Eve was missing was Chinese Vampires and a mandatory multi-phase strategy rpg minigame" I kept meaning to buy Sedna but also like, come on gamepass or psnow.
