The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

About

Bogey Dead 6 (released in Japan as "Sidewinder" and in Europe as "Raging Skies") is a 1996 flight simulation video game developed by Pegasus Japan and Bit Town, and published by Asmik Ace Entertainment in Japan and Sony Computer Entertainment in other regions. The game features six real fighter planes: the F-4E, F-14D, F-15E, F-16C, F/A-18E and the F-22 Raptor. The game is played from the perspective of an ace pilot for the United States Air Force. The objective is to protect the United States from communist invasion, enemy involvement and terrorism. The game is very similar to the Ace Combat series. "Bogey Dead 6" is jet pilot jargon meaning "unidentified jet directly behind you."
