I assume it was somewhere around 1997, maybe 1998... and I was watching TV with my brother and father one day when a commercial for AO came on. For some reason, my dad [who generally dislikes modern video games because they 'make him dizzy'] was amazed by the commercial [as were my brother and I], and him talking about how cool it was just left the name of the game etched into my mind. A few days later, we were at Target, and I saw the game there, so I bought it [I don't think my dad remembered seeing the commercial, because he just sorta looked at the cover and went 'ehh']. Started playing it with my little brother, and it's been my favorite game ever since.
