Interactive Entertainment (IE) was an interactive multimedia CD-ROM
magazine published by Interactive Publishing, Inc. covering DOS, Windows,
and console games.
The magazine software was designed to run on Microsoft Windows 3.1 and Windows 95.
Unlike competing printed publications which offered CD cover disks as a
supplement containing demos and utilities, each IE disc was a fully self-contained
magazine offering all editorial content in the form of video, audio, and text,
as well as the usual demos and utilities.
At the time of its publication, IE offered a multimedia presentation that
was unfeasible over the Internet due to slow dial-up connections and a
lack of standards in streaming video and audio on a web page, making IE
the precursor to the modern video game magazine website designed for
broadband Internet connections.
