Reminder you can never hate British enough

Except that one Stuart Brown guy, I hear he's pretty alright.

Surprised no one put the new video

I miss that point of time in gaming when you had actual innovation and you didn't feel like the media was outright hostile to you.

Though NeoGaf seemed to always be faggots.

3 videos in the span of a month? Has production ramped up on their end or something?

Nobody knows how many Amigas Commodore sold:

In this video he tracks down information to prove that commonly reported sales numbers for Amiga were not accurate. The numbers on the Amiga Wikipedia page have already been updated with his more accurate estimate.

Scans of the Commodore Annual Reports:

New video about the year I was born

New video on brownness in games.

It's interesting things in a subject that's connected to my job, but I have a lot of issues with the methodology:
* The sampling is incorrect, taking the highest selling games ignores that the argument on colours focused on games for 13+ ages, mostly shooters and action games. Nintendo's bing bing wahoo increased popularity with the Wii absolutely massacres the data.
* Taking random samples is very risky as any game with lots of inventory management can have a lot of frames including a menu which doesn't represent the game.
* Taking the full frame is incorrect, taking height wise 0.1 to 0.6 and width wise 0.25 to 0.75 of the frame will remove parts like the ground and indicators that massively bias the data. In general it shouldn't take that long for so few games since you don can easily downsample that image to 640x400 without really affecting the statistics.

At least there are some funny meme moments:

Video about the AUG

Cool gun, but it is relatively overshadowed by the other greats of its era.

Not really interesting unless they are talking about how many brown NPCs there are, which would actually be worth watching.

Episodes on ammo counter. Nice and informative, only gripe is not mentioning game like Space Marine where the gun makes a different sound as ammo is low.
