I’m reading a few old magazines from the late 80s atm, and EA is one of the best publishers. They have great customer support, invest in experimental games, have great packaging and reasonable prices. They got the readers award for best company two times in a row now. The magazine even sells EA t-shirts in their shop, in case you want to go out and show how supportive you are.
Reading these with the knowledge of today is so amusing and fun :)
They have gone the way of big corpo.
Still one of my favorite games.
Pasting dildos on top of snails? Aye, a good round of fun, but rather cruel for the little critters
This is one of those games that caught me totally off guard. I didn’t really know what to expect when i bought it on clearance one day but i remember playing the hell out of it.
*Edit*- the original “Alice” for PC.
Make it sexy! No, not like that!
There should be a law around not capitalising every word of an extensive title. Especially when the title itself contains titles.
Titles of works are usually italicized, and where that’s not possible, placed in quotes.
But this headline contains quotes and titles and subtitles. Honestly it’s doing too much and should be cut down, but IGN is no paragon of journalism.
American McGee is so cool, it kinda sucks he got shafted from id, but then we wouldn’t have gotten Alice.
Total Chad move.
(Not the country)
Someone has to mod it into the game.
