Video Games: The Movie, a feature length documentary, aims to educate & entertain audiences about how video games are made, marketed, and consumed by looking back at gaming history and culture through the eyes of game developers, publishers, and consumers. The film is not just another film about the games industry, but attempts something much more ambitious; the question of what it means to be a 'gamer', a game maker, and where games are headed. Storytelling and the art of the video game medium are also explored in this first of it's kind film about the video game industry & the global culture it has created.

Some people watch it by more shady means, or I think if you have Direct TV its on one of the pay to watch channels.

Is there no legit way to watch it?

Looks like something to pirate. The reviews are not good at all, and I'm reading complaints about it ignoring PC gaming (which is not surprising since the industry has always been driven by what can be delivered to the living room). The reviews basically call it a rushed and boring ad for video game developers. I might give it a watch tonight if IPtorrents has it.

Watched it yesterday.
Does completely ignore PC gaming.
It is basically a PR campaign for game developers. Its nothing astounding that we dont already know. But, it does give you some good history lessons on where gaming comes from and where we are now.
Doesnt really get into the future at all, besides saying the VR is the new evolution of gaming And the big goal would be something a la Star Trek Holodeck.
4/10
