The Abridged History of Video Games in 3 Minutes

by on June 6, 2012

Reverse Enginears produced this A Brief History of Video Games video for polygon.com, and in less than three minutes they took me from my childhood to present day.  All the sounds, music, and video were taken from the games themselves.   Enjoy!  I’m going to play some Street Fighter 2.

  1. I was the first one ! I was the first one! :) . I know it’s lame of me to say but…

    That video was damn good too.

  3. You forgot to mention you were also the second one. But third is the cut off.

    And now to enjoy a Jill sandwich.

  4. AHHH!! That was awesometastic. Nothings better that a hyperconcentrated dose of nerd-nostalgia served up with some techno-tunage.

    Peace n Pocket Full of Quarters n Im heading to the Arcade,
