Gaming culture is pop culture. Need proof of that? Well, you can watch Indie Game: The Movie on Netflix, Seth Rogen is making a movie about the Nintendo vs. Sega battle of the 1990s, and Gamer Age is about to debut live on the Web.
Gamer Age is a new documentary that looks at the cultural impact gaming has had over the last 40 years. It explores how gaming influences education, therapy, art, and our relationships with one another. And you can watch the film live in about a half hour when Twitch livestreams the premiere starting around 2:15 p.m. Pacific Time.
