    1:13 Is among the top 10 greatest moments in RUclips History.

    Jobs never made any workable technical stuff. What he was good at was getting other people to do it then stealing the credit. In this case (as in many others) he screwed Steve Wozniak.

    • @christrupiano4383
      @christrupiano4383 4 года назад

      So true. Jobs couldn't engineer his way out of a paper bag.

    You played Pong against yourself is straight up hilarious! I loved Breakout and the variations. Even to this day there are modern Breakout clones for smart phones, tablets, PC and consoles. I loved Tetris as well.

    I think these history of video game videos are the best things the irate gamer does... he should release them more often! I don't want to wait an entire year for the next vid.

  • @dnatiuk
    @dnatiuk 9 лет назад +6

    Ouch! You said Breakout was engineered by Steve Jobs. Nooooo! That's about the worst historical mistake you can make, considering how Wozniak not only worked like a mad-man BUT also got stiffed his due rewards. Don't take away the credit for the game too. ;-)

    • @irategamer
      @irategamer  9 лет назад +10

      +David Natiuk Actually yes steve jobs did make a version of it that was so complicated they had to throw most of the work out. Its a very humorous story thats' in the complete history of video games book. pick it up, its worth it

  • @DB87_Official

    I remember the machine shaped like a shark. I think it was called "Maneater" and I think it was only 10 cents to play but I could be wrong on that. And, I remember when we got Pong, it was just one of the copy-cat versions, but no one cared. Everyone was like "we got Pong". "Do you have Pong?". "Did you get Pong yet?"
