I guess Tetris is next

Bingo!

 

[Mannequin]

This is great so far.

Awesome to see Graham Linehan.

 

[Albo]

Anyone catch that code lol

All I got was triangle, X, circle, square and that's probably wrong

 

[lefantome]

18 years in America will do that.

Yeah, is charlie brooker on gaf too? He must join us in this thread. Good job so far.

 

[Nerdkiller]

For those not watching the programme:

Triangle, X, Circle, Square, Circle, X, Triangle.

the site doesn't want to let me sign in anyway, so fuck it :lol

 

[RazorUK]

Enjoying it so far.

Didn't the Commodore ad have a young Don Mattrick? Only saw a glimpse.

 

[Alienous]

For those not watching the programme:

Triangle, X, Circle, Square, Circle, X, Triangle.

Can confirm.

 

[spirity]

This is surprisingly great so far. Minter, Elite, Manic Miner, and the old c64 and speccy fanboy wars (surprised Zzap 64 and Crash weren't mentioned, I think the journo's on those magazines spurred a lot of that rivalry on haha).

 

[Gigarator]

I guess Tetris is next

Donkey Kong is my guess.

 

[glaringradio]

Donkey Kong is my guess.

It's Tetris

 

[Dabookerman]

Donkey Kong is my guess.

We shall see

After that it'll be Mario surely.

Pokemon better be mentioned

 

[Chinner]

Donkey Kong is my guess.

could go either way. think dk came out before tetris. will probably use DK as a lead into mario no doubt.

 

[D4Danger]

I guess Tetris is next

The story of Tetris is really interesting. There's a great BBC documentary about it

http://m.imdb.com/title/tt0409371/

 

[spirity]

This is great so far.

Awesome to see Graham Linehan.

And Peter Serafinowicz (shaun of the dead), which surprised me.

 

[Dabookerman]

Donkey Kong is my guess.

Ok you win

 

[BGBW]

It's Tetris

That'll be 1989 with the GameBoy.

 

[Chinner]

mario. everyone is owned.

 

[Alienous]

I guess Tetris is next

Uh ... Super Mario Bros.

Did we skip some time?

 

[Chinner]

rob florence. get inn

 

[Hot Coldman]

Uh ... Super Mario Bros.

Did we skip some time?

Tetris came out in 1989. I'd have thrown in DK, but in terms of "popular character in a game" Pac-Man has that covered.

Thanks.

the site doesn't want to let me sign in anyway, so fuck it :lol

Same. Site's probably hammered now so gonna try later.

 

[Memento Mori]

Can't say I was expecting to see Salman Rushdie in this.

 

[Nerdkiller]

GEEZ, I almost thought that guy playing SMW was Stanley Kubrick!

 

[theaface]

Loving this programme. Can't complain about any of the choices so far.

 

[Dabookerman]

Nice mention of Koji Kondo. Good job!

 

[glaringradio]

Salman Rushdie playing SMW... Okay

 

[spirity]

Should I know who Labyrinth is? Or am I just that old

That late? Really?

 

[BGBW]

Oh hey, it;s the game of next gen.

 

[Messofanego]

"Crash Bandicoot in the pan"

Ohhhhhh BURN

 

[dmr87]

Should I know who Labyrinth is? Or am I just that old

Never heard of him.

 

[Nerdkiller]

All Brooker is doing to me is reminding me to get a WiiU, just for 3D World.

 

[spirity]

a guy called gerald > all

 

[hospitaldriver]

This reminds me I've never played any of the Mario Galaxies games.....

Worth picking a cheap Wii up for them?

 

[kulapik]

FilmOn is also getting hammered, other way to watch?

 

[glaringradio]

Should I know who Labyrinth is? Or am I just that old

Not Labyrinth, LABRINTH...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Labrinth

Purveyor of terrible music in the UK

 

[Alienous]

I fucking knew Brooker would tie the Berlin wall into Tetris.

... it really is a genius game.

 

[tamaster92]

Yay kezza

Wish they would rerelease Tetris is super HD

 

[Cov]

FilmOn is also getting hammered, other way to watch?

http://www.tvcatchup.com/watch.html?c=4#4 Working fine for me.

 

[Nerdkiller]

Just as a reminder for anyone not in the know, Indie Game: The Movie is playing immediately after this programme.

 

[PowderedToast]

it's weird seeing rob florence on TV

 

[lefantome]

FilmOn is also getting hammered, other way to watch?

Media hint working fine

 

[Heimbeck]

Get a Wii U so you can play Super Mario World as well.

 

[Alienous]

That fucking Gameboy start-up sound.

It's amazing that it still resonates so much with me.

 

[Nerdkiller]

Just as a reminder for anyone not in the know, Indie Game: The Movie is playing immediately after this programme.

Just in case anyone missed that one.

 

[mrklaw]

I'm a fee minutes behind, but enjoying it so far. Got to the BBC micro bit and Gary Whitta just popped up! Kind of odd that they label him as the writer of After Earth, rather than his gaming credentials.

Do they ask you how you want to be labelled? Eg peter molyneux is listed for today's rather than populous etc? maybe that's something you can negotiate in return for your talking head?

 

[Nzyme32]

wooo schafer!

 

[spirity]

Ballblazer! Yesssss

 

[LTWheels]

Wonder if SF2 will make the list...
