Very good video, it is nice that you give us the opportunity to feel like Kramnik ;) But I agree with other commentaries: Some explanations would make it much better ;)
easy, Im thinking Nxe6 and Nf5, but Nxe6 looses to fxe6!, so i thought about Nf5, but i did not choose Bh6, instead i choose Qc4 and then Qh4 which is met by Be7!
didn't the world chess network feature predict-a-move contests? it's more fun if you can keep score... I stopped playing at wcn when it wasn't free anymore.
not only was Nf5 the strongest first move, but it was actually the strongest move instead of exchanging queens, which Kramnik did. That would be the ending move worthy of this brilliant game.
Great idea - just more explanation as to some of the "weirder" moves. Why was move 1 Nf5 for instance? I can get the take on g7 to an extent... But Nf5 seems quite random.
Nf5 wasn't random. N on d4 was hanging. You have to either move the knight or defend it with a piece. The idea behind Nf5 was to attacks g7 and if black castles, Nxg7 Kxg7 Bxd5 exd5 followed by Qc3+ wins back the piece (winning the bishop on c5).
nice play

Well. I found the experiment good but you should have explained the ideas behind every move after giving the answer.

I cheated. I used Rybka 3. And Rybka agreed with every one of Kramnik's moves'. No surprise, I'm sure

I am rated 1620 and that stuff was insane...it wasnt really attacking, just winning loads of material...
