Video Games: The Movie
1
Once upon a time, there did exist
Like so many things
distinctly human,
electronic games were
born out of a combination
of innovation, necessity
and curiosity.
Early tinkerers made
electronic amusements,
cheap, crude entertainment
to something potent and alive.
This would not just happen
by electronic wizardry,
but by the endeavors of artists,
designers, and entrepreneurs
whose initial goal to entertain
also came to challenge,
captivate, and enlighten
millions of people
around the world.
The men and women who created
this industry allowed their own
experiences and the world around
them to inform their creations.
This is the story of video games.
This is Video Games: The Movie.
Havin' a good time
I'm a shooting star leaping
through the skies
Like a tiger defying
the laws of gravity
I'm a racing car passing
by like Lady Godiva
I'm gonna go, go, go
There's no stopping me
I'm burning through
the sky, yeah
Two hundred degrees
That's why they call
me Mister Fahrenheit
I'm traveling
at the speed of light
I wanna make a supersonic man
out of you
Don't stop me now
I'm having such a good time
I'm having a ball
Don't stop me now
If you wanna have a good time,
just give me a call
Don't stop me now
I'm havin' a good time
Don't stop me now
Yes, I'm havin' a good time
Don't wanna stop at all
I'm a rocket ship
on my way to Mars
On a collision course
I am a satellite
I'm out of control
I am a sex machine
ready to reload
Like an atom bomb about to
oh, oh, oh, oh, oh explode
I'm burning through
the sky, yeah
Two hundred degrees
That's why they call
me Mister Fahrenheit
I'm traveling
at the speed of light
I wanna make a supersonic
woman of you
Don't stop me, don't stop me
Don't stop me
Don't stop me, don't stop me
Ooh, ooh, ooh, I like it
Don't stop me, don't stop me
Have a good time, good time
Don't stop me, don't stop me
Ooh, ooh, all right
Ooh, I'm burning through
the sky, yeah
Two hundred degrees
That's why they call
me Mister Fahrenheit
I'm traveling
at the speed of light
I wanna make a supersonic man
out of you
Don't stop me now
I love video games, because I have
the same experience that I have
when I watch a movie that I love
or read a book
that captures my imagination.
But, I'm an active participant
instead of a passive observer.
Video games have a really
interesting role to play
in the future of our species,
and we're just starting
I feel like video
games at this point
are intrinsically linked
into our culture
in a way that's irrevocable.
I think from here on
it goes deeper.
deeper and deeper
into everything we're doing,
until they're just part
of our lives in a way
we don't even notice.
All media's relevant to its time.
For example,
records and cassette tapes
disappeared from existence,
but music didn't disappear,
it was digitized.
The same is true
for movies and books.
They evolve from one
form to another.
For video games,
the evolution is the same.
They will change and evolve.
They will forever be
a part of our global culture.
A hundred,
According to The Entertainment
Software Association,
the average gamer's
for 12 years.

As of 2013, 49 percent
of all U.S. households
own a dedicated game console,
