Advertising in the 90s was something else.
I remember seeing this in PC Gamer in 1997 or 1998 and getting pumped.
Side note, I have a full collection of US PC Gamer issues, 1994-2000. I wonder if there's any interest in HD scans?

I had a smallish collection as kid and into my teens, which is when I developed my nostalgia for the publication. However those are long lost to the recycle bin.
My current collection was put together piece by piece while watching ebay like a hawk, and keeping a spreadsheet of what issues I already had, what condition they were in, and if I was satisfied with said condition.
I did the same for the demo CDs, and the actual floppy disks they included in 1994. That collection still isn't complete, the floppies in particular are hard to find.
That's pretty awesome.
