Interesting especually the first episode but overall far too many interviews alrhough the Nintendo sound creator was notable but far too short. Lots of stuff missed out such as table top games and handheld games, which were massive during first half of the 1980s. The short mention of the Pong console was inaccurate. It had more than one game and a light gun game. Also no coverage of "home computers" (as they were called at the time) and definitely Spectrum and Commodore should have been included in this series. Especially the ZX81 purely for landmark reasons being the first hime computer and for a goid few years Spectrum 48k was THE best for games and the rivalry with Commodore was era defining for sheer amount of games. So this series is a kind of nostalgia trip for those who were there but the coverage is limited. There should have been more focus on what the games kooked like being played rather than all the interviews. It would also have been better if there had been a segment focusing on the classics that were loved or played by everyone. Space Invaders, Pac-Man, Donkey Kong get their rightful albeit limited features but there were others that should have been included. Pole Position, Pitfall, Green Beret, Manic Miner, Fottball Manager, Daley Thompson's Decathlon, Outrun, Operation Wolf, Final Fight, After Burner, were all majorly played games.
