SCRAM: 1981 ABC Nightline Interview with Chris Crawford

[santospoland]

Chris Crawford is amazing!

[Herbarius]

What is going on in Japan right now should be an incentive for everyone to download this old game, put it on an Emulator, and play it. You'll develop a much better understanding of what is happening over there through that.

haha sweet, I watched the China Syndrome the other day and it reminded me of playing this old game on an atari computer way back when, glad to find this video and see the game again...

Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful video! I respect Chris Crawford so much enough to say he is my favorite game developer ever. Not specifically because of his games, but more of his ideas of what video games should be. I'm not surprised that he is upset about where video gaming has gone. An example is MGS IV, how you don't learn any skills from the gameplay and how it's 80% cinematic with no user control.

WTF happens at 1:41 It sounds like he starts talking like a kid? This guys weird.
