A TV programme about Video Games
Specifically the Dare to be digital student games competition. This is what SavyGamer contributor Will Templeton has been working on recently and last year. It’s designed to be watched by a general audience, so everything’s explained clearly. One of the saddest things is seeing Realtime Worlds (who were mentors to some of the students) still being referred to as one of Dundee’s giant studios.
You can watch it on 4od here, and parts 2 & 3 are on over the next two weekends.
Well done Will.
watched the first 20 minutes, turned off as I found it a little patronising. Sure it has to cater to a mainstream audience but no need to dumb it down that far. Same reasons I didn’t watch all of Charlie Brookers Gameswipe
Dundee? Don’t they mean Japan? 😀
My brother and I came up with the wii foottball strapped to your foot game at launch ironically. It’s a terrible idea.
Thanks Lewie, that sounds interesting.
For those who aren’t in the UK, you can use Expat Shield to watch the videos on 4od (as well as on BBC’s iPlayer). It’s a UK based VPN service. Google it, it’s free and quick to set up.
this was great. looking forward to the next one
Eeey, good to see myself on TV 😀
(Im the guy that defines ‘crunchtime’ for the audience :P)
