*Segment: PlayStation Underground Jampack Summer 1998*

Next is the PlayStation Underground Jampack Issues. However, we'll be talking about about the PS1 Issues from 1998 to 2001 first. Starting with the Summer 1998 Jampack Issue
= Blasto
= Gran Turismo
= Hot Shots Golf
= Jersey Devil
= Tekken 3
= Duke Nukem Time to Kill
= Test Drive 5
and
= Tomba
Halford said to Aphrodite

I hope we see what the Narrator has plans for us. Speaking of which, any reason why other Demos of the PlayStation Demo Discs are left out? Richard said to Athena.

From the looks at the OPSM PlayStation 1 Issues, the next set of demo discs look heavy as there has to be at least 50 of them until the PlayStation 2 took over then the very last of the Demo Discs died ou when everything was made mostly digital with the rise of Digital Only Content by the PlayStation 3 and Nintendo Wii. As for the remaining demos, some are Cheat Codes, Imported Demos, Previews, Hints & Save File Downloads. Halford said to Aphrodite.

*Filler Fantasy Prize Update: What are Screener Tapes*
I'm sure you're wondering, why so many Consolation Fantasy Prizes lately in the Game Lab such as movie Posters and more. Well, they're from something called VHS Screener Tapes which are Demo Tapes. During the 1980s & 1990s, they were movies released prematurely which were distributed to Movie Stores which had extended trailers containing advertisements of Point of Purchase Material for Retailer stores as they would include early measures of Copy Protection.

Some Copy Protection Measures had a Scrolling Text or black bars above and below saying "Demo Tape Only, NOT for Resale". About a Minute or so they would change the film format to Greyscale then back again. They would invert the color and tinting, or even show a 1/4 or half of the movie even a portion of the movie.

However, if you owned a Movie store, then it would cost around $100 or more for each Screener tapes back then as there was no internet either during that time at all either

The Extended Trailers would show a lot of Retailer Information along with how well the movie did when it came out along with movie sales pitches such as Television, Radio and early Online Media Blitz of Advertising as there were for one more or more than one movie along with Pre-Selling Kits, Contests, Cross Promotional Material, Point of Purchase Materials such as buttons, stickers, decals, display stands, posters, etc.

*Segment: Taco Bell Atari Promotional 2006 CDs*
Speaking of Demo CDs, Taco Bell released a 4 Wave of Arcade Games with their Kids Meals. Those Games that were included were...
= Asteroids Classic
= Asteroids Enhanced
= Centipede Classic
= Centipede Enhanced
= Super Breakout
= Breakout
= Lunar Lander Classic
= Lunar Lander Enhanced
= Pong
These felt like Lite Versions of the Atari Aracde Collection for the PC since they were sold for $5 back then. Each wave of these games are same but with some differences as Disc 1 was the Classic Version of the Aracde Game while Disc 2 was the Enhanced Version. So having both Discs of each set would be required for a Full Installation.
Richard said to Athena. Well, to answer your question, the Jampack PlayStation Demo I had mostly was PlayStation Underground Jampack Winter 2000

*Segment: Taco Bell: Tasty Temple Challenge 2000*
When the 2000s was still early, Taco Bell had Promotional Games for DOS even after DOS Computers died out. The Taco Bell Tasty Temple Challenge is one such game as the game is to explore a temple in search of Taco Bell products while fighting scorpions and snakes. The game looks and plays like a mixture of the Doom & Quake Engine kind. It also has temple traps too Richard said to Athena.

Hello. What's new? Sounds like you can use a little help with some missing Taco Bell Games. In 2000, there was 2 more Taco Bell Games, Taco Bell Moon Eater & Taco Bell Jumping Bean Jamboree.
Taco Bell Jumping Bean was technically a Breakout style game while Moon Eater was Runner Game where you shoot UFOs and collect Tacos. Its worth mentioning that some of these forms of Lost Media and Promotional Game Oddities are hard to find nowadays
Olly assisted Athena and Aphrodite with the Christmas stuff

Wasn't there another giveaway Demo Disc in a way? Maybe Olly could tell us if we missed something. Richard said to Athena.


*Segments: PlayStation Pepsi Sampler Disc 1997*
Olly entered the player's room with Fifi next
Care for a drink, Fifi, my French Little Mermaid? *To Athena and Richard* To answer your question, of course as it was during Final Fantasy 7 which was coming soon to PlayStation.
In Final Fantasy 7, an Empire is draining the Lifeforce of the Planet and its up to a single Solider of Fortune to save the world. Succeed and the world will survive, Fail and the Player can always hit the RESET Button.

This was from the Pepsi Sampler Disc 1997 on PlayStation that was distributed to retailer stores where people would buy Pepsi or Mountain Dew where a person would check the bottlecap if he she won a PlayStation and it would also contain a $5 Rebate on PlayStation Games.

The Demos that Disc contained were
= Final Fantasy 7
= NCAA GameBreaker 98
and
= Jet Moto 2.
Its worth noting that Pepsi & SEARS did Cross Marketing Support for Final Fantasy 7 for the PlayStation which included Collectable Figures, Drinking Cups and Trading Cards
Olly said to Fifi and Athena
