Commercial Breaks - A documentary about Imagine and Ocean Software (Full Uncut Version) The Video Game Reviewer Archive 2011-04-18 | I'm uploading this video as Google Video is closing down at the end of this month and wanted to have a place online for people to watch it. But I'm tempted to create a new channel dedicated to archiving video game TV shows, would anyone be interested in that? Fantastic bit of history showing a behind the scenes of software houses Ocean and Imagine circa 1983/4. Following text from http://home.iprimus.com.au/danmcpharlin/purpleowl/psygnosis-history.html In early 1984 the Imagine team were working on a spectacular project known as Bandersnatch. The game was to come in an A4 sized box containing around 30 'goodies' including a required additional piece of hardware for your Spectrum computer. The retail price of Bandersnatch was expected to be around £40 and it was to be a completely new concept in computer games. Apparently 10 professional artists were working on the graphics alone. Bandersnatch was never released. On the 9th of July 1984, Imagine went bust after only 18 months of operation. Interestingly, its demise was documented by a BBC television program.*** *** Note. This is the very video that the text is talking about. :-)
Reviewmageddon - Episode 4 The Video Game Reviewer Archive 2018-11-15 | Digging through some old scratched up DVD's, I found an old episode of Wez and I's Reviewmageddon show, recorded May-ish 2008 we filmed for Xleague.TV/Pulse TV.Looking back, it's very cringy, mainly as the whole show was filmed in one take, so a lot of annoying paused and stuttering. but it's amazing how much I've changed since then.
GameZone: Episode 4 - DelayStation 3 The Video Game Reviewer Archive 2018-03-14 | A pre-YouTube internet gaming show I (Larry) and my friend Wez were guests on once.Sadly I believe the rest of the episodes are lost to time, but it gives you an insight of what internet video gaming shows were like back then, enjoy! :DPS The parody at the beginning was of GameLife, the biggest internet gaming show at the time. They weren't to impressed with the impressions!
Atari Adventure Promo The Video Game Reviewer Archive 2017-10-07 | Quite an oddity this, in 1981, Atari were going to expand their presence in the US by opening a chain of stores, which were a combination of a virtual theme park and game store, quite ambitious for its time.Unfortunately, the North American video game crash put an end to such plans. But it's an idea that could be worth going back to, especially with Virtual Reality finally taking off.BTW It is me, Guru Larry running this channel, so I've not stolen my own video :P
Click - The VHS Video Magazine - Issue 2 (December 1991) The Video Game Reviewer Archive 2014-11-04 | A more obscure part of British video game history here, Click the VHS Video magazine was an early '90s attempt to have a magazine on a tape. Unfortunately it only ever lasted 2 issues, possibly as they wanted a whopping £5 an issue (when paper magazines were around the £1.50 mark)But it was a good idea and quite fun to see a gaming show of decent quality that Hewland didn't have anything to do with.

Gamesworld - BTV: THE UNAIRED EPISODE The Video Game Reviewer Archive 2014-10-05 | Never ever been seen in public before may I present to you the never aired episode of BTV.The main reason why it never aired in it's entierity wasn't because of anything offensice or contriversal in the spidoes, it's just Sky's execs took a dislike to Hewland promoting Games World the magazine when it was published by a rival company (Sky is owned by Rupert Murdoch's News Corp)But here for the first time ever is the episode as intended to air. Enjoy!(additional nore - this was on my original Guru Larry account, I deleted it, but I've no idea why, possibly as I had some strikes on the channel and panicked, so removed everything TV related.)
Tetris: From Russia with Love (TV Documentary) The Video Game Reviewer Archive 2014-08-28 | Really need to start uploading some of the classic video game documentaries that have been on TV over the years.But this is Tetris: From Russia with Love, a BBC documentary from 2004 about the West's rush to obtain the rights to the most popular puzzle game of all time. And the Soviet's rather sneaky way of playing Nintendo, Mirrorsoft and Atari/Tengen off against each other.A really good view!
