1. History of Gaming
1 year ago
This is a university video-project made by "Game Design"-students from munich.
Done in a single-shot fashion...well almost single shot =)
The film covers different eras of the video-game history.
Took us a week to organise the various props (controllers, monitors. lighting, camera, etc.), two whole days to film and several days of postproduction.
It isn't perfect, but hopefully fun to watch nevertheless ,)
Games:
Tennis for Two, Oscilloscope, 1958
Pacman, Arcade, 1980
Donkey Kong, NES, 1986
Sonic the Hedgehog, Sega Mega Drive/Genesis, 1991
Street Fighter II. SNES, 1991
Super Mario 64, Nintendo 64, 1996
Final Fantasy VII, Sony Playstation, 1997
Need for Speed: Hot Pursiut 2, Sony Playstation 2, 2002
Ecco the Dolphin, Sega Dreamcast, 2000
Super Smash Bros. Melee, Nintendo Game Cube, 2001
Wii Sports Golf, Nintendo Wii, 2006
God of War III, Sony Playstation 3, 2010
Rock Band, XBox 360, 2008

Thanks for watching! Keep on gaming...
//EDIT:
We're quite aware that we could have used more games or different games but we just wanted to show a small insight into the history of videogames that just shows how far we've come and where our roots are buried.
A small FAQ:
There are Playstation 1,2 and 3 devices, just pay close attention or read the credits =)
I noticed that many of you are missing the XBox and Halo on it. It was planned but my friend with the controller called me just before the day of the shooting and said he couldn't find it =( Sorry
Ecco and the dreamcast were mainly meant to show a flop in game history (please don't kill me for saying that =) ! If you have a different opinion on this one it's cool. We don't mean to insult anyone).
Why didn't we just cover...everything?!—due to the limited time that we had for this project it was hard enough to gather all controllers and output devices we used. And we're quite aware that it's not always the best possible combination of game pad and monitor =)
We didnt use XBox Kinect or Playstation Move because the technology isn't new.
And remember this is (almost) a one-shot (= no cuts used) => the more games/controllers, the harder it gets—one mistake and you can start over.
We captured a total of 45takes.
If you're interested visit vimeo once in a while, we're up to make a little "Making Of".

I AM BRIAN CRECENTAY I AM EDITOR AND IN CHEIF OF KOTIKU, HAVE YOU SEEN MY CHILD!?
this is Paz Castillo from Spain.I´m a TVE producer and we would like to contact Florian Smolka in order to ask for a permission to broadcast "The History of Gaming" video in our programme.
THANKS IN ADVANCE
or cancel
In that near future, if virtual reality is interlaced... ima be pissed.
Great video by the way! Really enjoyed it!
Although it will probably be a lot harder to get all the equipment. :/
Ansonsten toll gemacht :)
Apart from that huge (IMO) mistake, good video.
Nice one
Thanks!
The last one you shown is the prototype I've been working on real life fps game.
but where is the Xbox (360)?
Where is Shen Mue for DreamCast?
Die geilsten Games habt ihr leider ausgelassen...
and we'd have the original Xbox in there too but due to a little problem(discribed above) it didn't work out =/
War auch mehr angedacht als kleiner Einblick der die generelle Entwicklung zeigt
xbox was no where to be seen ;)
I also think the ending was a bit cheesy. Virtual Reality is something that has been around for some time, and gaming has passed it by. The ending could've afforded to be a bit more...mind-bending.
I think it was a clever concept, but the script was disjointed and incongruent in several places.
i'm sure someone or one of the big gaming sites with the budget would do a similar thing and include every gaming system, from PC to consoles to hand held.
Will augmented reality be a new medium for gaming? Possibly. Imagine just wearing glasses (or even digital contacts!) that show a HUD and holding a controller around. You might not even need to hold a controller as the HUD will recognise your hands and place whatever game object you're playing, like a sword, gun, ball etc.
Definitely a fun little video. I'm surprised you were able to collect up as much as you did. I'd have a hell of a time looting my friends for old consoles.
One Question though : What kind of grade did you get on it?
- TrackHustle.com
Totally leaving out a decade of home gaming (i.e. Pong, 2600, Colecovision, etc.) is just going to create more comments.
I miss Atari and Master too, but so what???
You did an awesome job with what you had...
It will be always something missing for some people....
Still very clever and fun...
Keep up the good work!!! =)
In essence a lounge where you'll find consoles from back in the eighties all the way up to 3D gaming. Check out the video on Vimeo. vimeo.com/18986444
...so many days I had spent on Street Fighters on SNES....
eheh
Great shoot and direction.
what is the song that you play in rock band at xbox 360
Sorry, as a professor from the 80s I must grade this a B+. Seriously though, nice work.
If you used markers on the walls you could've made some "status text" appearing on them. At first glance when I spotted the text there I thought it was gonna be it, but it's just the decoration of the room or whatever that's called.

congratulations from Spain!
In our documentary project: The Gamer Inside, we wanna show the impact of videogames in the society, it will be Creative Commons and crowdfunded, and we would like to use parts of your video (referencing the original in a corner of the screen)...
Would you give us permission to do it?
Cheers!
Just go ahead! You're welcome
fast jump from '91 to 96 though... anyway great idea)
In case of any further questions, dont be afraid to ask =)
What kind of game designers are you?!
Just kidding, it was very well made!
