The thought's entered my mind before to somehow get hundreds of people to fill those old things out and simultaneously send them in. Might be good for a giggle - maybe even get an internet news article written about it.

Added to mailing lists, but some of the stuff they'd direct market to you back then was pretty cool - but mostly junk.

in case anyone wondered. it came from this Interplay game, circa 1991 but perhaps the reg card is newer?

>> No.4388213

>>4388209
nevermind, found a tiny date on the cardboard box, 1995. so the card is probably from then

Ah yes, PC gaming's one kryptonite, going through the trouble of meeting up with the requirements to play the game. To the average consumer, they don't want to deal with this crap. So they buy themselves a console instead, which more convenient. This is why PC will never truly take over the gaming market.
