Video Games: The Movie

Description
Video Games: The Movie, a documentary aiming at entertainment and educating the audiences about how video games are made, marketed, and consumed by looking back at the history and culture of playing game through the view of game developers, publishers, and consumers. The film is not only just about the gaming industry, but also something that contains more ambition; the question of gamers, the game-manufacturer.

The modern stuff is undeniably fawning. But given the eye-popping visuals, you understand the enthusiasm. Especially if you left your heart, and thousands of dollars in quarters, in an arcade.
