LGR - Computer Game Catalogs
video description
I see your videos and i feel like there is a place for me to go where i knew it was there but i never looked. Console games are too popular but there are great pc games too and so many of them that i have never heard of.
Everybody is talking about classic games like mario etc but they always overlook PC.
Keep up!

This video is like an anti-alarm clock. It'll put you to sleep, but in a great way. It just feels so safe and warm to listen to LGR drone on about PC game catalogues that if you're drowsy it's like having a sedative pleasantly drip into your ears. Nice video, helped me reach new levels of relaxation that I never knew I wanted to reach in the first place. Such a nice, slow listen that reminded me of old catalogues and like a classic lullaby lulled me to sleep. So, so comfortably numb, great work.

I was that kid calling Nintendo Power hotline sneaking it at night while playing Links Awakening on the Gameboy. I knew the hotlines button combination for the sections i was at pretty well, but they would act as if they had backlogs and would play advertisements in between transfers milking those $$$'s, and then you had to write the notes down because there was no way you could follow the instructions as they spoke. Needless to say my parents were not happy with my completion of the game. rofl.

I used to do this with Sega Power. I could afford the magazine but couldn't afford the games so would read the reviews over and over. Night Trap was one of them. Street Fighter for the Mega Drive was another. But that I was saving for. When I eventually got it, it was a massive anti-climax. Despite now being able to play the game for free, it just wasn't the same as going to the arcade to play it (although I could only play it at the local video rental shop as there were no arcades near me.

I still have my copy of Star Wars: Behind The Magic. It was a sort of Encyclopedia program that covered every thing in Star Wars cannon at that time (episode one was not released yet, a lot of behind the scenes stuff, like cast bios and production schedules, and a massive list of Star Wars memorabilia, like toys, collectibles, bored games, and video games. needless to say, I used it a lot as a kid, But it is ultimately useless now, especially sense wookieepedia is a thing.

I used to collect different game magazines back in my past.
When I was reading my PS1 & PS2 magazines I always was drooling over all those games that was shown in those.
-Man that look's like awesome game-.
-Damn I want that one-.
-Can't wait to get that one-.
: D
Too bad I don't have these magazines anymore. It was really bad mistake to get rid of them.
Of course you could read about these games on internet, but it doesn't feel the same.

watching this video 5 years later lol, and seeing that ad in the jazz jackrabbit catalog, reminded me that in 1997 i worked on the dutch helpdeks division of compuserve they were based in Amsterdam and as en employee, you got a free unlimited membership, the most calls we got were about customers who had cancelled their membership, then gone back on line to see if it was cancelled and that reactivated their account

7: 42 omg i have that controller and I used it for so many years as a child; it's all worn out now and it uses the now dead joystick port so i can't use it anymore, but damn lots of good memories. The controller itself was horrible tho, if i remember correctly it didn't even have shoulder buttons or start. I wish you would've covered it so we culd laugh at the atrocity it was.

I feel for ya.
to get my own computer I had to save up 20$ a month for about 2 years, it was going to take longer but my dad decided since I was so dedicated he would meet me half way on xmas.
to be fair I didn't start off with any games on day one, but I did luckily have some uncles that gave me a game or 2.
besides that, emulation was nice to me.

Lol Darth Vader on the Jedi Knight advert. He isn't even in the game. Would love a review of that and Yoda Stories.
Did you have those kick-ass Microsoft CD samplers/catalogues? I know one is on the Windows 95 installation disc but there was another one that came in a cardboard sleeve. Had a demo of Fury3 on it: .
