Mega Man X5 PSX/PS1, hacked with MET's guitar arrangements, including improvement/addendum patch! This was a pain vs X4 due to how Capcom stored the tracks in the XA files, but I think it turned out pretty good!

Folks of Bluesky!
I am trying to find the source of this Advertisement for Duke Nukem 3D. The only leads I have is that it existed around 1996 (when the game was released) and that the company on the top right "FuncoLand".
I have no idea if this appeared in a Magazine or was a poster in a store.
