Yeah they sure tried something, charged $50 for it, failed spectacularly, and that's how you end up on LGR 30 years later. ● LGR things elsewhere: Patreon / lazygamereviews Bsky https://bsky.app/profile/lgr-yt.bsky.... ● Archive of the Screen Toyz software CD-ROM: https://archive.org/details/screentoy... ● Background music licensed from Epidemic Sound: https://www.epidemicsound.com ● Halloween stock footage licensed from Storyblocks: https://www.storyblocks.com/ 00:00 spooky 90s e-waste 01:08 intro to ScreenToyz 02:36 oddly fascinating history 06:30 unboxing the box 09:33 setup in Windows 98 12:17 first test! 14:27 ...it's a thing 19:08 can't imagine why this failed lulz #LGR #computer #retro
