Gameplay: The Videogame Revolution (2015)


The rapid evolution of the videogame from the first programmable computers (those walk-in ones housed in entire rooms) to today's increasingly realistic A.I. and life-simulations (Second Life), is detailed in this 2013 documentary and along the way there is interesting trivia (Steve Jobs was involved in the development of Breakout), horrifying facts (a Columbine High School Massacre game was made) and there is lots of nostalgia for kids of the 80s who feel the same buzz of excitement today as they did thirty years ago hearing the tinny theme music of Zelda.

★★★☆☆
