VNC: Virtual Nightclub (1997)

The opening to VNC: Virtual Nightclub, a very obscure game about touring a futuristic virtual club that barely made it to store shelves even with millions poured into its development over the course of four years. Based on the emerging rave, hip-hop, and cyber cultures, it involved well-known icons like Def Jam Records, Herbie Hancock, Warp Records, Neal Stephenson, PM Dawn, Terence McKenna, etc. They also had deals to include interactive advertising for Levis, Dr Martens, Stella Artois and Lynx in the game as well. 

The developer, Philips Interactive Media, basically went bust just as they were printing the final copies of the game to ship. It was picked up by a company called Thumb Candy, and 20,000 copies were marketed and sold via the Sci-Fi Channel and various internet sites (though I can’t find any trace of this). There are quite a few ISOs of the full retail version game available online, though it seems that people are having trouble getting them to run on newer versions of Windows. Thanks to the Lost Media Wiki, we also have scans of the manual!
