Produced by Fairfield Informational Video and Linda & Albert Lange on a Commodore 64 Computer in 1990. That was the name of our company at the time. Music at the beginning of the first video and at the end of the last video is made by and copyright Albert Lange. synergyitself.com
Our thanks to the software companies whose software we've used to make this tape (now 10 videos on YouTube). Along with each video is a list of the games in the order that they appear.
We'd also like to mention that we used SlideShow from Compute's Gazette GEOS Collection and GEOS GeoWrite from Berkeley Softworks to make the introduction on this tape and the credits. Some of the fonts are from Power Pak 1 & 2 from RUN magazine. The Wizard pointer at the beginning is by Mystic Jim.

A cool, we think, video my husband and I made on VHS showing some Commodore 64 video games from back in the day. I was the player of these games. That's my husband's voice on the video. I know, I wasn't the greatest at the games. But, hey, we had fun doing this! We did it to give people an idea of what the games looked like before the Internet. I've broken it up into several sections on YouTube. We own nothing on this and the other videos in this series. Hope you enjoy it! My husband and I took out an ad in Run Magazine to sell this VHS video that we made. We never made any money.
Please don't leave any nasty comments.
Unfortunately we never kept a list o the movies on the VHS tape, so I'm listening to the videos and writing down the names of the games from what my husband says. If I'm wrong on any of my names etc. please let me know in a comment below.

1-5 were captured onto my computer with a video capture device. I couldn't get it to work for 6-10. I set up my digital camera in front of my TV and played the VHS tape and recorded them that way. I had to keep quiet the whole time. :-)
