Honestly, I spent over a week just to master Pac-Man! But during those days, money and time spent on arcade are all worth it. It feels like heaven, right? Admit it.

Yeah the ZX Spectrum ruled!!! Now, the funniest irony is that they make a HD version of the video available. What’s the point of high definition to see a video that’s purposefully low-res/blocky/jagged to look like classic games? The quick part for Tetris was the best.

#13 Yes. Plural of Lego is Lego.

Put it in the Blog’s staff training manual.

Everytime Lego is featured on this blog the same mistake is made every time. It will happen again. But please try to remember.

Come on, haven’t you guys heard of the internet? Look it up, the plural of Lego is Lego Bricks.

#13: yes, or if you prefer Lego bricks (or Lego toys). There was some ruffled feathers a few years ago from Lego about that. Search ‘Lego bricks vs “legos”‘ on the web for details.

Lego even makes a point to splash a temporary web page on http://www.legos.com saying: Oh! you must mean http://www.lego.com let us take you there, instead of at strait redirect.

Those two swedes sure know how to make stopmotion lego videos. I saw some others from the same team wich was made for some commercial, i think.

Nice stuff, except for the non-lego bits. They killed it for me.

#8: I think the point of #3 is that there is no plural to Lego. It shouldn’t have an “s” at the end. Hence the Greek island joke.

That video probably took longer to make than the programming for Pac-Man did.

#2 Benjamin,

I visited a couple of arcades. I didn’t play much. I tried to do well at Pac-man, and reached the third screen (not to well).

Great computer generated video of a c. 1984 arcade! Click the left side of the screen for sound effects only and the right side for music and sound effects.

This is a montage of stills from an arcade c. 1980.

#3 Yes, in ancient times, it was the isle of Legos, where neither sex was allowed…

It was where the first artificial life forms were constructed by Dr Moreau, a French transplant evil scientist who asked the eternal question, “what planet are you on, you don’t know what a lego is?”
