I distinctly remember around 2011 or 2012 seeing a trailer for a new NASCAR game that featured an increased focus on confrontations and fights rather than the actual racing aspect of most NASCAR games. The game was said to have the option to pursue drivers following or during the races and throw a few left hooks at them, curse out certain drivers, and even had a feature that allowed drivers to flip each other off during the race. Naturally, this game had an M rating as opposed to the E rating that pretty much every other NASCAR game has. I'm 99 percent sure this was some fan made trailer, because the game was never made, and I can't find the trailer anywhere on KZfaq. Which is unfortunate, because that premise sounds awesome.

And it just didn’t happen simply because no amount of marketing could convince people to trust Sega after how bad the Saturn was. God I wish people realized how amazing that console was then so more companies would have done stuff like make the memory cards their own little simple handheld console because good god was the Dreamcast amazing for that alone

The Saturn was fine, hell one of if not the most powerful console at the time. Sega just couldn't get their shit together and told consumers the day it released before retailers even knew to stock it or for games to be made beforehand. To this very fucking day I still do not understand the logic they were using here

The Saturn was a good system, Sega kinda screwed themselves by making people by the 32x first tho, who's gonna buy a 32 bit system twice?

The next DOOM ad should go the Daikatana route, I would buy it on release if they did that, not just because it's DOOM, but because that ad would kick ass

The Duke Nukem Ad is hilarious. It's the people who *don't* play a game advertised by a muscly guy wearing a tanktop that are gay, not the ones who go "this guy looks hot, I'll buy whatever he's selling". The latter group are the ones who don't like men, naturally.

Next are ads that absolutely don't make any sense on making you want to buy the product I saw a car crash commercial that acts like this new car is better than the last one you just got in a crash in Dove telling you that you are beautiful.......then telling you to buy their beauty products An ad that wants to stop people from getting anorexia but it scares people instead which only causes more stress And so on

Man that Duke Nukem ad is straight up Dick Kickem energy. It's also funny how Ion Fury got shit for having bottles of "O'Gay" being an in universe thing many years later. Props to the devs because that would be on point. Also yes, I did play Daikatana and on the N64 even with that "controller" thing. I think it made me the man I am today because Jesus... that experience would kill a spineless crybaby. Meanwhile Doom is going hard still and Johns a cool dude and still very active in the community. Never did answer the question though... what are those holes on the cacos backside? Crazy how I remember some of these ads especially the scratch and sniff earth bound shit sticker. I thought my cat relived himself on it.

There are some great barcades in the Seattle area. Places like Add-A-Ball and Another Castle do in fact require quarters to feed their machines, and these machines range from Foo Fighters pinball to Street Fighter 2 Turbo to Ms Pac-Man to Death Ball.

John Romero was the kind of person who love looking like a rockstar. He was obsessed with optics (arguably still is), and gets so wound up in the pomp-and-circumstance that he forgets to make a video game that actually works. Ironically, his former Id Software co-founder and fellow programmer, John Carmack, was the complete opposite. John Carmack is a genius programmer who, in a lot of ways, had a similar level of self-importance. The difference being, Carmack thought his programming was so important that he worked 10 hour days and 6 day weeks across his entire career, would be quick to anger if he was ever interrupted, and is quoted as saying, "Story in a game is like a story in a porn movie. It's expected to be there, but it's not that important". The break-up between the "Johns" was inevitable.
