Data Age Mindscape FlexiDisc - Woah! Trippy man!

Post by MaximumRD »



From the awesome Digital Press forums (which if your into Classic gaming is a must!)
http://www.digitpress.com/index.htm

Description from their archives:

Publisher: Data Age

Scarcity: 7

$25 (L)oose or (C)omplete: L

Description: A seriously psychedelic videogame record that was available through Data Age. Plugging their products with hammy actors and actresses, you might get an idea of what the games were about, but certainly not their poor quality. Classic line from this record: "The hatch key....got...to...find...the hatch key". Collector's: don't go looking in the 45 RPM section for this one - it's on a flexi-disc with cardboard backing, like the kinds you used to get in cereal boxes in
the 70's.

From the Digital Press "Classic" Guide.

...plus my review of Sucklock...errr, Airlock :D

Interesting, original game idea, crappy execution.

Yeah those promo records were something else, all right!

Very interesting and unusual product., and excellent video as usual. I would love to have something like this in my collection, even though I have nothing to listen to it on.

You guys should really pick up a record player. Since I'm sure some of you hit up swap meets looking for classic games, you can usually find some cool records for dirt cheap too.

I used to own The Karate Kid original soundtrack on record until I accidentally broke it. :(
