When I find myself with a spare 80+more minutes I’ll have to finish watching that.
Anyone have some time to lend me?
You don’t have to watch it all in one go, lol
I started with 3 minutes XD
Kudos to you for starting! Haha
Look at Johnny 5 over here
Just 28 more sessions!
I think I could beat the game in less time than it takes to watch this video
Intend to watch the full thing later, but I already love his style based on the opening minutes! The interviews remind me of old PBS/Nova style documentaries where so much of them was just letting people talk and tell their stories. Very cool!
Everyone one of their documentaries is amazing.
He’s like the Ken Burns of gaming! 😄
I feel like that’s the exact vibe they go for with these. It feels so authentic, too. VGH clearly has a love of both video game history, and that particular era of documentary programming.

It’s literally the story of how Oregon Trail came to be. With interviews from the people who made it. Honestly it’s worth a watch if you find early video game development or early computing at all interesting. Video Game Historian puts out some fantastic documentaries and this one is equally fantastic.
Excellent video! If you have the time to watch all of it, do so. The early days of computing were wild!
Great episode
