An abridged history of video games in under three minutes. Made using only sounds, music and video from the video games themselves. -yt

As ObiWan said "From a certain point of view"

These things are always geared around the maker of video's personal experience with games.

For instance, for me, the start of it would be Spectrum games, followed by DOS games, then windows games and now Wii and Android.

So, not really a 'history', as 'A personal trip through video games'

I've played every single one of those games up until about the 2 minute mark. I probably enjoyed the 8/16 bit era more than anything else. I started out with an atari 2600..I remember playing "fire fighter" and thinking how amazing the graphics were. hehe. Adventure is the best game of all time.

Title should be changed to a brief history of console games.
