Every time I see stuff like this, I think I need to go back and look at print video game ads from the 90s, but I never get around to doing it.

They’d make those blue-haired heads explode if they were published today. I don’t have any old video game magazines, but I’ve got hundreds of comic books from the 90s. Maybe I’ll go through some of them this weekend and see what I find.

Remember the Evony game ads? I won't soon forget that picture of the voluptuous maiden with bedroom eyes captioned "Play Now My Lord."

Those ads almost made me laugh at first because of how hard they try.

It wasn’t that long ago they had Kate Upton do live action commercials for a similar game with a similar marketing gimmick. I think it was called game of war? Imagine a mass market ad campaign like that now
