- Uh oh. Now you've done it.
-
- You've just begun to install the Total Entertainment Network, the new
- hang-out for game players on the Internet. This could mean trouble. If
- you're fool enough to hit the NEXT button below, you'll be flung head-first
- into the evolving world of Internet entertainment. You'll be force-fed 5
- free hours of online thrills with hit multiplayer games. You'll be
- obligated to eyeball the heaps of features that TEN has to offer. Your
- whole outlook on digital entertainment could take such a thrashing that you
- may never play the same way again.
-
- Need more reasons not to continue? Okay, two words: "Free" and "More."
-
- First, "Free." When you sign on to TEN for the first time, you'll get 5 free
- hours of online play. That's 300 minutes of your precious entertainment
- time down the tube. That's 5 less hours of David Hasselhoff's shaggy chest
- hair. Or your 65th viewing of the Star Wars Trilogy. Or 5 hours of play
- against some moronic computer opponent in a boring single-player game.
- Yeah, it's gonna hurt.
-
- Next, "More." What you have here is a full-bodied multiplayer gaming
- network. This version of TEN gives you all the features you need to meet
- and play games with other people over the Internet. It's clean, simple, and
- straight-forward. But don't be lulled by the opening gambit. We're only
- going to make your life more complicated with more and more stuff. Soon
- we'll be rolling out GameScape, our game information resource. We'll host
- tournaments and contests with real prizes. We'll give you a full suite of
- Internet services. We'll make it easier to meet people and make friends.
- And we'll support more and more freaking games. We're only going to make
- our service bigger, better, stronger, faster. In a world as complex as
- ours, do you really want to deal with all that?
-
- Well, that's the best we can do to scare you off. If you've got Win95, a
- 14.4+ kbps modem or Internet connection, a TEN supported game*, a major
- credit card, and self-destructive tendencies, go ahead and punch that NEXT
- button to register on TEN. And don't say you weren't warned.
-
- (*You must own the retail version of some games to play them on TEN. See
- the README file for more information about the games TEN supports and
- their special installation instructions and system requirements.)
