netmonkey Posted March 3, 2005 I was browsing around, and I ran into these two tv shows that you can download: 1984: http://www.archive.org/movies/details-db.php?collection=computerchronicles&collectionid=121 and 1985: http://www.archive.org/movies/details-db.php?collection=computerchronicles&collectionid=203 I haven't seen the second one but I'm watching the first one and Trip Hawkins, the founder of EA, speaks... anyway, it's interesting to hear how dedicated game designers were back in the day to provide accuracy... they didn't think on market share or shit like that. But since then, EA talks about a sports game... Dr. J and Larry Bird go one-on-one. Trip says that the direction games are going is to have "more creative possibilites for the player which I think where more of the educational value comes from." and "The area where the greatest challenges will come is in looking for new original ideas and creative ways to break the mold. A lot of people look at what other people have done and try to do something that is a spinoff from that, but the real creative geniouses in the industry are capable of coming up with something completely new." Times have changed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
