Even before the ESRB existed, you've got to ask yourself, "How can games like these ever be made!?"

Eddie here, me and the girls are just here playing atari video games. And then we hear this really loud mower. Let me know what you think.

OK, so you want to know how they put the game together back in the 1980's when you get an Atari System (2600 back then). Here, you will see the company, Imagic, design team, on planning, write the program,   more...and put it together. Back then the game was programmed on COBOL, a computer programing language (like UNIX). Memory was part of the big factor when putting the game together. This was shown on PBS from Enterprise series long time ago. Title of this one is "All in the Game". Off topic, they did a documentary of a first major airline that filed for bankrupty and did went bankrupt which is Baniff Airlines.  less

These kids with alot of time created Space Invader in real life.

A classic struggle between a foul mouthed nerd and a not-so-classic console.

This is the censored version.
MTV friendly and all that

The coolest video game maker dude.

Taken from "Activision Anthology" a video game for PlayStation 2. xD

Part 2 of the documentry of the show. Here, you will see the design trying to put the game together, being tested by kids to see if the game will fly. Imagic crew went to a consumer electronic show in   more...Chicago, IL which is a big deal back then (now E3 show in Los Angeles) to promote the product and/or service and what the competition has to offer. You will also hear the song "Pac-man Fever". The president of the company is trying to put in a sales pitch, both foreign and domestic. Also putting the game together in a factory.  less

Set on the fictional planet Irata (which is Atari backwards), the game is an exercise in supply and demand economics involving competition between four players, with computer opponents automatically filling   more...in for any missing players. Players are provided with several different choices for the race of their colonist, providing different advantages and disadvantages which can be paired to their respective strategies. To win, players not only compete against each other to amass the largest amount of wealth, but must also cooperate for the survival of the colony.
A Multiple Use Labor Element, the eponymous M.U.L.E.


Central to the game is the acquisition and use of "M.U.L.E."s (Multiple Use Labor Element) to develop and harvest resources from the player's real estate. Depending on how it is outfitted, a M.U.L.E. can be configured to harvest Energy, Food, Smithore (from which M.U.L.E.s are constructed), and Crystite (a valuable mineral available only at the "Tournament" level). Players must balance supply and demand of these elements, buying what they need, and selling what they don't. Players may also exploit or create shortages by refusing to sell to other players or to the "store", which raises the price of the resource on the following turns. Scheming between players is encouraged by allowing collusion between two players, which initiates a mode allowing a private transaction. Crystite is the one commodity that is not influenced by supply and demand considerations, being deemed to be sold 'off world,' so the strategy with this resource is somewhat different--A player may attempt to maximize production without fear of having too much supply for the demand.

Each resource is required to do certain things on each turn. For instance, if a player is short on Food, there will be less time to take one's turn. Similarly, if a player is short on Energy, some land plots won't produce any output, while a shortage of Smithore will prevent the store from manufacturing new M.U.L.E.s to make use of one's land.

Players must also deal with periodic random events such as run-away M.U.L.E.s, solar flares, and theft by space pirates. The game features a balancing system for random events which impact only a single player, such that favorable events never happen to the player currently in first place, while unfavorable events never happen to the player in last place. This same "leveling of the playfield" is applied whenever a tie happens in the game (e.g. when two players want to buy a resource at the same price); the player in the losing position automatically wins the tie.  less

Part 3 of the documentry. You will see a commerical for this video game, plus some others.

Spiderman even likes playing spiderman. NOT! FUnny vid I found!

I never remember pong being this much fun.

I discuss the beginnings of video games through my perspective and experience. And yes, I will correct my error about the Channel F in Part Deux. FYI the works cited list for vid one is at the end of   more...part Deux, which will be posted soon  less

Apparently if you drink 7up you can kick the f**k out of ghosts

My dad playing "Asteroids" on the Atari 2600. xD :D :)

I don't know how anyone could not buy this game after seeing this commercial.

How bad can it be?

Yes, boredom makes you do things to random videos.

PROXEMIA SHOWING THE EVOLUTION OF GAMING

Damocles Atari st demo cover disk was captured using TechSmith codec.You can think of it as a very distant relative of GTA but on a much bigger scale.This game was also available on the Amiga.Company:Novagen/Author:Paul   more...Woakes,thier was another game before called Mercenary and Second City both used a much more basic vector engine still vey open ended but this time on one planet only. The other game afther Damocles The Dion Crisis was basicly an updated version but had diffrent objectives and wasn't about saving Eris anymore. For example instead you had to run for election or put PC bill in prison or an other way you could defeat him.The Damocles game consists of nine planets and nineteen moons with over 30+ citys it's huge very open ended,each with thier own bus and taxi service timetable and routes.Thier also many diffrent objects and buldings to find and explore.Some building have lifts as well as huge underground complexs.Also thier are many vehicles some for planet side and some for intersteller travel or you could use the teleporters there's normaly one on each planet apart from some moons,you cold also buy/trade or sell many diffrent objects as well as the vehicles too.And thier where many diffrent characters you could interact with.Your main task in Damocles is to stop the giant comet Damocles crashing into the planet Eris not a easy task. In total i think thier was something like 22 diffrent ways of stoping the comet all of them not easy that's not inculding the other missions on the seprate mission disks but it can be done.Running on 1mb of ram and about 1.6mhz this is a coding master peace.Their was also a 99.9% complete PC version but this got canned right at the very last moment.You can also find a fan site here with more information (There's no abandonware here)
