So, there's this guy Egoraptor out there in the interwebs who makes videos about video games. He's probably best known for the incredibly ridiculous "Awesome" series where he spoofs the crap outta games, but he's got another series called Sequelitis where he examines what makes sequels worse than, or better than, their predecessors. This video in particular stands out from the bunch. He makes a lot of excellent points about older games compared to newer games, how they teach the player, and the ways Mega Man X took a near-perfect experience and managed to actually improve it.

So. There it is. Twenty minutes of insight on gaming that I never expected to find. Warning tho: If you're watching at work or in a room with kids, you'll want earphones. Egoraptor is a master of the Cluster F-bomb.

I'm sure he is. Putting all that footage and animation together can't be a quick process.
