Modern Day Gamer 2

Posted by Myers at 01:00 23/11/2003.

My good friend Simon Bysshe has finally finished work on his latest project, Modern Day Gamer 2. Modern Day Gamer 2, although not strictly focusing on Counter-Strike attempts to capture the spirit of gaming culture.

Some of you may remebmer Simonb from his first project Modern Day Gamer where he scratched the surface of the gaming culture. An equal number of you might remember Simon as the annoying guy with the camera at UKT 3.

A few brief comments from Simonb:

The main purpose of this documentary is to ask whether we will ever see gaming become a mainstream spectator sport.

The film features the Four Kings Wolfenstein squad as they compete at Quakecon 2003. We follow the team as they progress through the event & talk exclusively with them about tactics before their games.

Featuring interviews with:

John Romero
Sujoy Roy (iGamesUK)
Paul 'Locki' Wedgwood (Splash Damage)
David Mitchell (Intel UK)
Toby Aldridge (4K^Zommy)
& many other 4K players.

This is the sequel to my original documentary which focused on the growth of gaming as a sociable hobby & received over 50,000 downloads worldwide.

Im hoping this film will be used to help educate mainstream media about the growth & potential of competitive gaming. For more info join #igproductions on Quakenet.

Running time: 17minutes 47seconds. Filesize : 157MB. Format: WMV.

So why wait?, get it while it's hot!

Why can't people ever provide direct links rather than crap that redirects through php and asp pages? [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]
