Vice Magazine's online video division hired the creators of last year's surprisingly thoughtful MMO documentary Second Skin to tour Richard Garriott's house and talk to the game-designer-turned-astronaut about his long career.
The three-part interview (parts 2 and 3 can be found below) covers everything from Garriott's first game -- a computer release he designed and initially self-published as a high school student -- to his recent trip into space.
Most interesting to me was the tour of Garriott's home. It's obvious that the man is a true geek (in the kindest sense of the word), and his home is essentially a vast collection of the awesome toys the rest of us dream about, but will never feasibly be able to afford.
I don't even own a single crossbow, let alone a wall covered in them.
