Those shown are console games. The world of PC/Mac games offer 3d graphics that are mind blowing. I still remember playing commander Keen. :)

I wonder if that's Dave Perry as in Shiny Entertainment's creator of Earthworm Jim. If so, hasn't he got anything better to do? Like making another Earthworm Jim? A good one this time?

It's interesting that the clips of the older games show actual GAMEPLAY while the clips of the newer games almost entirely focus on pre-rendered cut-scenes. Anyone can make a cool movie. It's the GAMEPLAY that matters.
