    You've gotta be sh*tting me. Its one of the most famous moments in video game history.

    Apologies if you really didn't know but like ... next you'll be telling me that you didn't know Darth Vader was Luke's Father, Soylent Green was people, Donnie Dies, Rosebud was the name of his sled, Tylder Durdan isn't real, Neo is "The One" or other such taken-for-granteds of modern culture [Blocked Image: https://migrationtest.mapcore.org/public/style_emoticons/default/mapcore_smilies/emot_shakehead.gif]

    yea i just watched it - it was pretty good but bad choice of font size and colour - had to concentrate too hard to read it :S

    still - some nice things to take away, ppl that develop games really have an opportunity to affect a hell of a lot of people in positive and sometimes life changing ways - it truly is an art form.

    like jumping into the mona lisa and punching her in the face

    kind of, but with more guns.

    "ppl that develop games really have an opportunity to affect a hell of a lot of people in positive and sometimes life changing ways"

    Is something like "Dark Messiah ("Evil End")" or "The Darkness" affecting people in POSITIVE ways o_O

    You forgot Doom, Quake, Postal and Manhunt (though, they weren't showed in zeh movie)

    Thread: Nice movie. Made me feel warm and fuzzy inside I think it's important to point out the positive aspects of gaming - not just the (supposed) negative ones, like Jack Thompson, Rainer Schromm and other people do. Gaming is an experience that makes fun, that connects people and where you can even learn from.
