Softwear Ad Still Odd in English Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Update ID

We've finally dug up the English version of the bizarre Softwear Wing Commander ad for the Playstation. It features some nonsensical text about the model's outfit being inspired by Wing Commander 3. It's part of a larger EA Lard/French Fancies campaign for console ports that made very little sense, but maybe it caught some eyeballs in print. LOAF spotted this particular copy in the April 1996 (Vol 1, Issue 7) edition of the old Playstation Plus magazine. But hey, now you can read it in English!

Leah looks every inch the Princess in a stunning stellar sweater from Vulcan Vinyl (£89). Radium Facegloss (Qurie Labs, £2.50 a gobbet) and Skintight Spaceflight Nitetights (Tinpins, £32).

The inspiration: Origin's Wing Commander III, a star-studded saga that combines Hollywood movie-making expertise with an adrenaline-packed space combat simulation, featuring the talents of Mark Hamill, Malcolm McDowell, John Rhys-Davies and Tom Wilson as 'Maniac'.
