Classic computers and modern gaming collide in this awesome presentation from Jeff McCord about the game he helped to create in 1982 for the Commodore VIC-20, and was just recently ported to the iPhone! What is it like to change the face of computer gaming by releasing a monumental computer game in 1982, and then porting it to other computer systems…  all while you are in high school?  And then, what it is like to revisit that game years later and port it to the iPhone? Jeff McCord, the creator of the Sword of Fargoal game will be on hand at the Midwest Gaming Classic on Saturday to tell you just what it was like, as his award winning game the Sword of Fargoal did just that! After developing the game in BASIC in 1982, Jeff was offered a publishing deal from Epyx, Inc to bring it out on the VIC-20, and later the C-64.  Both of these versions of the game were very well received, and are fondly remembered today by Commodore fans worldwide — in fact, nearly 15 years after it was created, it was remembered as one of the best computer games of all time by Computer Gaming World! Now, the Sword of Fargoal has returned and it is winning rave reviews once again with a whole new generation of fans — the game was ported to the iPhone last year, and continues to wow people today, even being named one of the top iPhone games of 2009 by TouchArcade
