    I'd watch if Pushing Daisies wasn't on at the same time....anyone know of scheduled repeats?
  • Comments on Reminder: Rise of the Video Game starts tonight on Discovery
    It's on at 11 PM EST tonight, too. I just checked because I missed it at 8. It's an hour long.

    So, now that it's over, is it worth it to make sure I catch the repeat?

  • Comments on Reminder: Rise of the Video Game starts tonight on Discovery
    Yep, stuck an apple in his mouth and bar-b-qued that fat bastard. That's good eatin'.

    In all fairness they just used a picture of New Super Mario Bros. to represent the series, as it says Super Mario Bros. in the title above the picture. So I'm assuming all the people that voted "New Super Mario Bros." a classic actually saw the title said "Super Mario Bros."

    They also use a shoddy picture of a guy watching a computer screen of DooM 3 to represent DooM.

    So is this airing in Canada or what.
  • Comments on Reminder: Rise of the Video Game starts tonight on Discovery
    At 8

    hmf. maybe i'll put off playing more Galaxy (and Wrecking Crew, which is awesomely addictive, even if somewhat brutal)

    Maybe

    I'm watching (and tivo'ing) it now.... This episode is supposed to be about the 70's, and instead, they're talking about a bunch of games from the 80's.

    Still pretty good, though.

    I just finished watching. It was pretty nice, and I actually learned a thing or two from it.
  • Comments on Reminder: Rise of the Video Game starts tonight on Discovery
    I am watching it right now- it seems to be pretty good.
  • Comments on Reminder: Rise of the Video Game starts tonight on Discovery
    I just started watching the show (11 pm airing) and so far, I'm impressed. I like how they set up the context in which video games were born. Were video games a reaction toward the volatile cold war environment in the 60s? Sometimes it's hard to look at video games from this historical perspective. Like I said, I'm impressed.
  • Comments on Reminder: Rise of the Video Game starts tonight on Discovery
    Yeah, I agree. It's definitely an interesting watch. Looking forward to seeing the next four episodes.
  • Comments on Reminder: Rise of the Video Game starts tonight on Discovery
    I was presently surprised, not bad at all. It did remind me of why I think Nolan Buschnell is a douchebag though. And next week we get to see the rise of Nintendo!
  • Comments on Reminder: Rise of the Video Game starts tonight on Discovery
    Heh, I don't really know much about him, but he seemed like a pretty cool guy from the show.

    Once agian, the media is gonna disrespect videogames. Even letting these jonny-come-latelys vote of what is the greatest game of all time or whatever.

    If there's gonna be a documentry about videogames, let real videogame journalists and historians do it.

    I was seriously waiting for the NES to show up, but it didn't. All I got were credits.
  • Comments on Reminder: Rise of the Video Game starts tonight on Discovery
    Argh! Missed it!
  • Comments on Reminder: Rise of the Video Game starts tonight on Discovery
    ...by more than a day!
