Motherboard Meets Richard Garriott
  • 15 years ago
Watch Parts 2 and 3 on VBS.tv: http://www.vbs.tv/video.php?id=13585914001 For the inaugural edition of Motherboard, VBS journeys to the enchanted realm of Austin, Texas to visit Richard Garriott, aka Lord British. In the early 80s, Garriott used the pile of money he'd amassed as a high-school student selling ziplock-baggied copies of his home-programmed computer role-playing games to start up Origin Systems, the company responsible for Ultima installments III through IX and pretty much single-handedly shaping the world of video RPGs as we (the nerds) know it.
