Despite using the new fangled technique of morphing, this little video is actually kind of interesting. It starts off with talk about how games have progressed over the years starting with things like marbles and ping-pong. Then it takes a turn into a techno-infused morph fest showing exactly how many of our favorite game genres have changed over the years. It covers a wide variety including fighting, driving and FPSs. If you don't like techno, turn the volume down and throw on your favorite Carpenters CD. I'm sure it will have the same impact.

NOTES: This was produced for game developer DAVID PERRY. It had to be two minutes and thirty seconds long, for an audience of non-gamers, and was to show what games might look like 5 years from now. Thus why some pre-rendered PS3 videos, and cut scenes were used. We will be doing a series of these in the future, check back.
A short trip through the evolution of video games. From pixel to polygons, atari to HD, this is a visual ride through various video game genres as they evolved with new technology and talent from game developers.
The clip was produced for a presentation made by game developer David Perry at the prestigious TED Conference in Marin County. www.ted.com
