Great documentary about gaming

Director Joshua has a tone and a love for the guys he is interviewing and the story he is telling. And this film held may attention from the get-go because there is nothing more fascinating than hearing the story of how these games got made. It's every endearing.

We get to see the creation of games like Defender and Smash TV, before striking gold with groundbreaking arcade versions of Terminator 2, NBA Jam and the smash hit franchise Mortal Kombat.

We also get to hear from the likes of Paul W. S Anderson, the director of the Mortal Kombat movie, and his reasons for getting involved in the process. We even get a whole section on the Aerosmith starring often lamented Revolution X,

I absolutely recommend you guys give Insert Coin a shot if your the slightest bit interested in arcades or gaming in general. It's very open and honest in they way they describe the times.

The gaming documentary I didn't know I needed!

If you are an 80's kid, you'll love this documentary! Mortal Kombat, Narc, and NBA Jam were staples of our childhood. This film captures the essence of that historic timeframe.

The psychology behind game design is front and center here. Every detail that you wanted to know about Midway, their competition, the games themselves, and so much more is also present in this documentary.

I personally didn't know that there was as much drama and friction inside of the Williams/Bally/Midway collaboration. I'm not sure that some of those guys like each other to this day.

Overall, getting to know the names behind the early movement in the video game industry was the documentary I didn't know I needed!
