In game bonus "making of" videos

[aviaovrumvrum]

I've always been really fond of this type of bonus content on games, perhaps one of the things I miss the most about the PS2 era, when these were most common. They always offer some very interesting insight (especially for someone who is really into game development and stuff) and are quite enjoyable to watch!

For a while now I've been looking for some of these documentaries and thought it might make an interesting thread here (also I could definitely use some help).

Here's two of my favorites:

I found out about this developer making of for Parasite Eve recently and it's a really interesting glimpse into that specific era of Square.

This game was sexy as hell, played the hell of Parasite Eve II, I think I loved the mix between turn-based and action game.

I love this thread and the concept of it, I'll be keeping a close eye on it since I adore this stuff.

This is one of my favourites. There's an extended interview with Glen Schofield that goes further into it, such as inspirations, sound design, and many, many more.

Oblivion still my all-time favorite for behind the scene stuff. It just works.

I'm a bit torn..

On one hand, usually I couldn't care less about any of it... especially considering how contrived it seems to be most of the time..

But on the other hand, I greatly appreciate that said content is available if/when the specific interest arises around a particular game..

So I guess I find it more of a positive than not..
