Yeah what's the deal with MineCraft anyway? It's like going backwards in gaming or something is it not? Not complaining about it or anything I just really don't get the fuss about that game, it's so friggin popular, alot of my favourite music artists play it, the drumstep/dubstep guys...

Edit:

Can't believe they didn't have Cannon Fodder, and more shocking, how the hell wasn't Sonic the Hedgehog in this??!? That's madness...

Loved the acoustic music, although the last 20 seconds were a bit misleading, kinda had "the final episode of a classic TV series" feel as if it was the end of gaming, maybe the producer thought December 21st was gonna happen?

I'm in the video at 4:46!

Yeah, the vid missed a lot of things (everything on the Sega Saturn and Nintendo 64 I noticed most). Actually I didn't see anything Nintendo past the Super Nintendo in that vid

Yeah I think the 1st half was great, but the 2nd half of the video was poor I think, missed so much out, but guess it depends how you look at it...

Ah I love it. The good old primitive games, not that overpixeled and coloured like today.

Rick Dangerou's, Bruce Lee, Karate Kid, Robocop, Dragons Liar, Boulderdash, Great Giana Sisters, Leasure Larry's Adventures, Mario Bros., Arkanoid, Ghost n' Goblins, North & South, Sensible Soccer, Sim City, Pacman etc.

Such nice games  :-*

I pleyed in 25% of presented games there, it was time when u didnt needed good graphics.
The most important thing was great gameplay :)

Anyway author of this compilation missed many good and important games  ;)

minecraft is popular because of its freedom, you can do anything you want, build anything, etc, etc

It was 2 weeks and about 20+ bottles of Irn Bru, but anyway..:

Ah man Goldeneye :) Memories there like !

I remember multiplayer with my mates they really hated playing me on Golden Gun mode and throwing knifes only lol

And it took us nearly 1000 attempts to get invincibility and invisibility cheats ! Mainly because of the Random luck factor where the Scientist spawned...

Haha I think I remember trying to unlock those cheats too, I remember for one you had to beat The Faculty level on like Super Hard in under 2 1/2 minutes or something like that lol. Needless to say I spent A LOT of time throwing the controller across the room hahaha  :P
