History of Video Games

Anyone watch the history of video games on CNBC last night?  Thought it was pretty interesting how a lot of the creators of video games jumped from company to company.

I Tivoed it to watch at an unspecified time when I have a free moment or two hours.
My wife turned it on midway through it and I was bummed that it was half over. Fortunately they showed it later that night again. Thank you lack of quality cable programming.

Watch out because it is 2hrs long and my cable menu only showed it for an hour.  I am so glad I have Insight.

I watched it this afternoon.

There's nothing there that a fan of video games (probably any regular on this board) wouldn't know already.

But it was still interesting and worth watching.
