    I had a Commodore 64, it was pretty useless outside of playing games, lol

  9. IVN on July 15, 2020 at 8:13 pm

    And yet video games are still being blamed for violence. Wow I didn’t know that playing doom will force me into shooting up a place

  10. V-Jose Playing Card Deck Reviews on July 15, 2020 at 8:14 pm

  11. Tommy Prins on July 15, 2020 at 8:14 pm

  12. V-Jose Playing Card Deck Reviews on July 15, 2020 at 8:14 pm

    Punks in gangs aren’t sitting there playing games all day, games don’t make people violent. I’ve played games nearly all my life, i’ve never been violent.

    I don’t know about others but i wish i could today sit at a bar or restaurant at a cocktail tabe with an ashtray and my glass of coke with a ciggy in my mouth playing something like raiden or shinobi or outrun. This just would never be acceptable today. I miss playing pinball as a kid too.

  15. Outsmoke on July 15, 2020 at 8:20 pm

  37. mronesuit on July 15, 2020 at 8:42 pm

    1:27:10 I can imagine what games will look like in 10 years from 2004 Mr. Tony. Oh! Wait! Its 2019, and you dont skate good no more. in all seriousness, i would like to see an updated version that include the next 15 years of games development, like increased online multiplayer popularity, youtube lets players, Twitch streamers. E-sports, narritive based games, EA Activition and other greedy game companies going don the shitter, that sort of thing.

  38. ES TE on July 15, 2020 at 8:44 pm

  39. Ian Hui on July 15, 2020 at 8:45 pm

    Playing too much doom will turn u in to mass shooter. Not true cause I’ve played mortal kombat for 20 years and hasn’t turned me into a mass killer

  40. final gaming on July 15, 2020 at 8:45 pm

  43. V-Jose Playing Card Deck Reviews on July 15, 2020 at 8:47 pm

    And yet Microsoft hasn’t even touched Sony, all the Playstations are in the top 10 selling consoles in history, only the original Xbox made the list, near the bottom. PS4 totally destroyed Xbox One and PS5 will do the same.

  44. chris burke on July 15, 2020 at 8:50 pm
