Re: [SWCollect] Video Game Documentary tonight
I got it!! I'll start the video processing tonight. After editing, it should be about 1h30m, which at ISDN bitrates (112kbps) should result in a downloadable file of about 75M. Would anyone like a modem-bitrate version? That would be about 27M. I'm going to use RealVideo unless someone can suggest something better.

If not, I'll keep trying. I was going to make it available via RealVideo, because real still has the best quality at low bitrates (and the most number of platforms supported). If this is a problem for anyone, let me know (and be prepared to provide a compelling argument for another format). -- Jim Leonard ([EMAIL PROTECTED])http://www.oldskool.org/ Want to help an ambitious games project? http://www.mobygames.com/ Or check out some trippy MindCandy at http://www.mindcandydvd.com/ -- This message was sent to you because you are currently subscribed to the swcollect mailing list.

[SWCollect] Video Game Documentary tonight
I watched a video game documentary on GSN (formerly the Game Show Network) last night. It's called Video Game Invasion and is hosted by Tony Hawk. I thought it was pretty good, considering. There was also some coverage of computer games, mainly EA, Sierra Online, and ID. The formation of the former two were covered while the latter centered on Wolfenstein and Doom. (Why is it anytime a documentary or history of gaming gets to Wolfenstein, they talk about shareware like ID invented the concept?) Featured interviewees included Trip Hawkins and our own Mr. Romero. Russell's Spacewar was included in the beginning, of course. Infocom was not mentioned, IIRC, although Zork was (including a shot of the box front). If you've got a couple hours to kill, it comes on again tonight at 5:00 p.m. CST. If you like video game history as well as computer game history, it can be worth it. I saw some vintage video footage, including commercials, I hadn't seen before. I, unfortunately, messed up my recording and won't be able to try again this evening. If anyone else records it, any chance I can get a copy? -- Lee K. Seitz [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- This message was sent to you because you are currently subscribed to the swcollect mailing list.
