Movie Reviews of VIDEO GAME INVASION
Movie Review: THIS ROCKS
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the best history of video games I've ever seen. Tony Hawk does a great job alongside all of the video game pioneers you can think of: Nolan Bushnell, founder of Atari, John Romero, co-creator of Doom and Quake, Tripp Hawkins, founder of EA... the list goes on and on. The whole pace of the DVD is fast and furious, much like the games themselves. The graphics are awesome. Good for old school gamers and newbies alike, this DVD gives you the people and personalities behind the games, and explains all of the genres and movements over the last 25 plus years. Bonus features are cool: an interview with Tony Hawk, and a piece where all the gaming pioneers talk about their favorite games of all time. GET THIS.
