The C64-Gamevideoarchive
Internet Archive
The GDC (Game Developers Conference), previously the Computer Game Developers Conference, is a series of events held worldwide to bring together developers, marketers, management, artists, and others involved in the creation of electronic entertainment. Besides the main events, GDC also maintains an archive of presentations and recordings at The GDC Vault.
This collection consists of additional video and audio material from the GDC archives outside the GDC Vault's mission, that still hold a cultural impact and interest in the history of the video game industry.

Let's Play
About
Discover in
Share
Playing on
Let's Play is a collection of videogame playthroughs with commentary (either text or audio).
Let's Play videos show the videogame being played while the player talks about what he is doing in real time commentary (sometimes just with text). Generally the playthroughs are spread over several segments of play (varying in time). Rarely some action is done "off screen" or speeded up to not get too repetitive, but in most cases the playthrough is a complete run of the game including all "Game Overs" and deaths. The videos are usually a humorous way to learn about a videogame without having to play it. For a more informal description and list of other Let's Play resources, see TV Tropes.
This collection is currently contributed from the Let's Play Archive. This mainly focuses on the Something Awful Let's Play! forum.
If you have any contributions to make to this collection please contact Simon Carless, the Internet Archive's curator attached to this project, at simon@archive.org
