What a fun idea, and well-presented. Looking forward to future episodes.

this was a good video, but these types of videos have never been my cup of tea.

I love this video so much! You always put out super fun and funny, extremely well-produced, creative and informative content, but I am both a movie / TV production buff and a video game history buff, so this series is perfect for me :D I really like how you include the detail about how some of these production decisions were guided not by people being ignorant about video games, but more practical movie-making concerns ;) Let me share my favorite example of this kind of thing – the arcade version of WipEout that people play in the movie Hackers :D That movie came out just a little while before I was able to get my hands on my PS1 (I am an old! :D ), and WipEout was one of the games I first bought with the system, and as a person who always loved references and cameos, I was super excited to realize that that movie I'd seen a while before actually featured a version (prerendered, one-off, but still :D) of a game I really loved :D I'm a fact-checker and YouTube script writer by trade, so here's some sourcing ready-assembled for you :D 'At the end of the movie Angelina and Jonny fall into a swimming pool and, finally, kiss, as Squeeze's little-known love song Heaven Knows lifts the camera up into the air. A year later, in 1996, the pair married. By then, WipEout, the racer that evolved from that pre-rendered demo Angelina and Jonny pretended to play on the big screen, was the most exciting video game in the world.' (a YouTube video is embedded in the article, and it shows that sequence in the movie – not sure about licensing) https://www.eurogamer.net/wipeout-the-rise-and-fall-of-sony-studio-liverpool A more informal article, about someone who attempted to recreate the arcade version of WipEout they play in the movie (the box, not the software ;)): https://robotskirts.com/2019/07/25/wipeout-hackers-edition/

This was ok, you did not mention games that were in the Movie but were said to be something else, like suburban commando, overall this was ok not something I would watch all the time
