Here is a very interesting video. It is a clip representing an amateur song on the topic of the history of video games.
In fact, the video is very cool. But there are also some sad disadvantages. The lyrics consist mostly of different words (the only exception is refrain) that define different video game technologies, names of great people from the arcade world, arcade game companies, video game consoles, and titles of arcade games. These words were planned to be sorted in chronological order. The end result however, left the song with some with chronological mistakes, some important video games for example (like Spacewar, 1962) and people (like Willy Higinbotham, the inventor of video game Tennis for Two, 1958, which is believed to be the first video game) were missed.
Also, (in my opinion,) the song should be in a different genre of music. The song talks about a time before the 1990's, the time of classic video games. These games had the 8bit music, and I believe that the song should be 8bit too.
Despite these disadvantages, the video leaves a good impression. It is very pleasant to hear the well known, and loved titles of classic arcade games, the games of childhood. It is as though you are remembering your whole life, in terms of video arcade games. A special thanks for the video itself, it perfectly supplements the nostalgic atmosphere of the music. It would be nice if the author wrote the continuation of the song to tell about the history of video games from 1990 until today.
