Quite good.
The most interesting thing to me was the
bonus video linked at the end with a couple guys
completely failing to teach a newbie how to play. Seriously, it's a good thing to watch if you ever want to do a demo game to see What Not to Do.

Great video, brings a tear to my eye. Especially the part about how people never really quit. Good stuff.

I was glad to see some Orks in the video and no Beeky boyz.

Rather good, that. One of the few honest and accurate depictions of gaming that I've seen. Good find
Ps - that demo game vid was a parody, wasn't it? Wasn't it? I certainly hope it was, anyway...

They certainly edited it for the humor, so one can hope - but then I've seen my share of people trying to give honest demos that looked exactly like that...

Heart warming.
After watching the video however
I am of the persuasion that gamers ought to work out more( including me)

But, you know, we burn a lot of calories using a substantial amount of brain power for strategizing and rolling dice!
Not to mention standing up a lot!
I like the video, but yeah the two guys teaching the poor woman how to play were terrible choices. I think they were nervous being around a camera and a pretty lady!
Maybe we should do a video like this! Ashmie can direct!
