In the 80s, and even early 90s, graphics weren’t, at all, the selling point of video game. Covers and adverts on magazines were!
Let’s take a look at some examples on how to sell a computer game in the 80s and early 90s!

A new rally simulation has finally arrived!
This year, Codemasters surprised everyone when they’ve announced, back in April, DiRT Rally as an early access on Steam and that they would shape the game with the feedback from players.
Let's take a look at what DiRT Rally turned out to be now that its final version is here!

Yeah ;)
Thank you very much for watching! :)

Meanwhile, many of you will certainly remember the tapes, disks and, more recently, CDs that started to come bundled with our favorite video game magazines, but do you recall when it all began?
Let’s take a look!

Just two complaints from just looking at the channel:

1. The main page of the channel contains an auto-playing video. I don't like it when channel pages do that. (I actually dislike the fact that video pages on Youtube auto-play the video, especially since I sometimes open a page just to view the description and comments.)

2. The thumbnail pictures don't look like they are from the actual videos.

(Note that I haven't actually tried watching any of the videos, however.)

Well, if you subscribe to the channel the "presentation video" stops auto-playing and, instead, the latest uploaded video is placed in that exact spot (static, no auto-play).
The thumbnails corresponds exactly to their respective title ;)


Meanwhile, 2015 was a great year for the show, so let’s take a look at some highlights and statistics that are shaping the path to where the channel is going!
And have an awesome 2016!

Back in the 80s and early 90s, the hardware and software evolution and inovation were always side-to-side with arcades, and, it was in those obscure and dark places, that I would decide which title I would buy next for my ZX Spectrum or Amiga.
Let's take a look at my all time favorites!
