Let's talk notoriety.
Obviously the subject matter was designed to grab attention, and it did. I'd forgotten how much press the game got when it was first released. The gaming media seemed to love it even as the adventure genre was starting to lose ground. But I was really surprised to see (on the DVD) that it was even covered by mainstream press (what was the show - Good Morning, America?)
Can you take us back to 1996 and tell us a little more what the reactions to the game were originally? Good, bad, shocked, horrified, repulsed, fascinated? On what scale?
As the "welcome" thread has already shown, clearly the issue still has potential to stir up strong feelings on the matter.
