It would appear that the youtube efforts of our friend who laboriously recorded and uploaded a great bit of documentary information on the evolution of the video game have been sacked by the authorities. I'm sorry about that, guess you'll have to buy the BBC DVD to watch all the great interviews with all the gaming heavies. I'll work on getting a version of my own '101' explanation in the meantime.
"The only legitimate use of a computer is to play games." -Eugene Jarvis
New-school goin' Old-school! You just gotta love the amalgamation of games in these tunes from the UK duo of Stuart Warren Hill and Robin Brunson - such an awesome spectrum for the eyes and ears. Now (hear) here are two things definitely occupying my time these days .. fixing old-2-new while listening new-2-old. Playing digital vinyl and soldering circuits, putting a groove on in the garcade. Restoring my 1980 one game at-a-time and getting back my mojo in 2010 - all full circles and completed levels. I will never grow old because I retain things from my youth to keep my heart young. I will always play music, always have a passion to be 'mr-fix-it', and I will always enjoy a game. Electronic chemistry and quantum biology .. scope your solid states true and shoot for the Hi Score! Qualify this first blog for my Quarter Byte arcade (also a bridge from my music blog - more of my junk writing past (passed?) about the music game). I actually work my days trying to love my work - I (still retro) service and consult Apple computers in Denver. It's not too difficult. ;-) Life really is a game .. play! Sounds good to me - game on!
