30-year veteran Peter Oliphant, a consummate storyteller, tells us all about the earliest history of the videogames industry, back when every byte counted. Peter also talks about his life as a child actor and much more. If his stories about Jimmy Stewart and Dick Van Dyke don't bring a tear to your eye, you aren't human, my orc friend.
